The winner for the week of July 2-8 is RichardCranium, for resurrecting nomar05's poll, What is your largest capacity CF card ?. The dead was raised after 3 years, 3 months, 8 days, and there were only 2 posts to the original thread at the time.

congratulations, RichardCranium!!


Anybody who wishes to submit a thread/post for this award, just send me a Private Message.


Edit: Here's the award:

ksong12 sounds a big negative considering the honor passed to Richard Cranium!

What's goin' on with Richard's cranium anyway?

Richard should gloat being the first awarded first place recipent during the very First Annual Necromancer Awards.

Richard's plaque will certainly intrigue his grandchildren after he has departed.

Isn't this better than a free Rhino case for your Ax?

If we start seeing a surge in the resurrection of old threads, then this one will be heading to the "bit bucket"

No I don't work for Dell customer service. I did think 'bout it however.
Called Dell but I couldn't understand the Indian language and couldn't read the application they
sent via email.

Being on hold for 97 minutes had me question myself, "Why did you call Dell?"

One requirement, move to Pakistan or India, I declined. Stayin' in the US of A!
