Howdy Stackers

Wishing you all a very happy, healthy and prosperous 2025, I would like to welcome you to the Final Show of SN Annual Awards - 2024.

Before the announcement of the winners, I would like to thank everyone who supported this well intended festival for stackers. I would also like to thank everyone who in any way contributed to the rewards pool, directly or indirectly. I would also like to thank those who positively criticized this idea and made me rethink a new plan for 2025 Annual Awards. Yes, a new and better plan, I'll discuss with you all in a day or two.

For today let's celebrate this new found festival for Stackers.

Drumroll 🥁 please!

Here are the winners for all 5 categories:

1. Meme of the Year

TBH, this award category has made me think a lot for how to get more engagement. The good news is that I've found a way for the next year to get more engagement. For this year, by the nominations and after the voting, the winner is ...... The award for Meme of the Year goes to will Work for SN Bounties.

By- @IamSINGLE

congratulations 🎉 👏 👏 👏

I'd like you call in the comments to recieve the award and the prize of 12600 Sats.

2 Post of the Year

I'm happy that the posts nominated by stackers are all gems. For me it was quite difficult to settle on 1 for the post of the year. All posts are equally great, yet we have a winner.... The Award for The Post of the Year go to Punishment is a Public Good by @Undisciplined.

Congratulations 🎉 🎉 👏 👏 👏

Kindly mark your presence in the comments to recieve the award and the prize of 12600 Sats.

3 The Rising Star of the Year

I can't announce it.

I'd like to call @grayruby to announce the winner for this #827557 category.

4 The Territory of the Year

This looked quite unanimous from the very beginning. I don't know why everyone cheered for it (the winner). They called him (the owner) the pioneer, the revolutionary, the messiah of territories! The winner for The Territory of the Year ...... is or has to be ....... none other than ~Stacker_sports!

Congratulations 🎉🎉👏👏👏@grayruby!!

Please come forward (in the comments) to recieve your award and a prize of 12600 Sats.

5 Stacker of the Year

The legends need no introduction! This is just a short description here but it's enough. We're all men and the legend is only one among us and truly deserves (is a small word), he owns this award. The winner for The Stacker of the Year 2024 is ..... Your favourite, my favourite, everyone's favourite.. The one and only @siggy47.

Congratulations 🎉🎉🎉👏👏👏

I would like to call @Undisciplined to do honor of presenting the award. I'd also like like to call @siggy47 to say a few words to enlighten us.

In the end, I would like to thank each and everyone who took part in this inaugural SN Awards Show and made it a huge success. Thank you everyone. Wish you all A Very Happy Happy New Year.

This year's Stacker of the Year truly is the best of us.

He runs four great territories and gives each its own style. He was one of the first stackers I made a real human connection with and I bet I'm not the only one who can say that.

Congratulations, Siggy!!! You were the Stacker of the Year for 2024.

We're all men ?? News to me. I'll have to see a doc about a surgery I guess

0 sats \ 7 replies \ @Coinsreporter OP 2 Jan

No man, you don't need to do anything.

I'm sure Aristotle didn't only include males when he said..."Man is a social animal."

And listen this world would be nothing, nothing ... Without a woman or a girl.

20 sats \ 5 replies \ @plebpoet 2 Jan

that's fine, sure. But you told an untruth in your post. It's not all men here. Why did you say that?

0 sats \ 4 replies \ @Coinsreporter OP 2 Jan

I'm aware that it's not all men here. I meant 'all human beings" by "Men", irrespective of any sort of orientation.

0 sats \ 3 replies \ @plebpoet 2 Jan

did you really? and you compare yourself with Aristotle when you do that? that's cool

0 sats \ 2 replies \ @Coinsreporter OP 2 Jan

It's not about Aristotle or Jane Austin. "Man" is a word that is/has been commonly used to denote "Mankind".

I didn't compare myself with Aristotle. I just quite him to tell you what actually I meant. If the word 'Woman" or "girl" had denoted commonly to human beings, I would have used that lovingly.

So, there's nothing like getting offended here. Even then I'm sorry if it did in any ways.

197 sats \ 1 reply \ @plebpoet 2 Jan

all good, dude, just that I'm tagged in the post, so wanted to flag it for being untrue. While we're on it, there are a lot of errors with this sentence.

We're all men and the legend is only one among us and truly deserves (is a small word), he owns this award.

The way you've walked it back is weak sauce. Just say you wrote something wrong that you didn't intend. Next time, run it through a robot first.

0 sats \ 0 replies \ @Coinsreporter OP 3 Jan

Just say you wrote something wrong that you didn't intend.

Well, it's a tough one for you then (obviously). I already said it.

So, there's nothing like getting offended here. Even then I'm sorry if it did in any ways.

Happy to have contributed to the awards pool!

82 sats \ 11 replies \ @BlokchainB 1 Jan

Hey @AGORA I would like to get the stacker of the year a stacker news t-shirt (only if @siggy47) is willing to accept.

How can we get this done?

106 sats \ 9 replies \ @AGORA 2 Jan

The more straightforward option for maintaining privacy is as follows:

@BlokchainB can purchase a gift card and send the code to
@siggy47, who can then choose the preferred item, and get it shipped when desired.
@AG can facilitate coordination in case of any issues via Nostr DM or email and ensure the order data is deleted once the item is delivered.

I'm also open to hearing your preferences and adapting the process to meet your needs.

41 sats \ 8 replies \ @BlokchainB 2 Jan

Okay let’s do it! I’ll pay for the code and you guys send it to @siggy47

205 sats \ 1 reply \ @BlokchainB 2 Jan

@AGORA fire up the invoice and then once I pay it send the code to @siggy47

57 sats \ 0 replies \ @AG 2 Jan

As cost varies depending on the shipping address, I suggest the option above

94 sats \ 4 replies \ @AG 2 Jan

Maybe the best way is that @siggy47 submit the order directly from here selecting a preferred item, introducing shipping address and send the LN invoice directly to you.

The only issue is that the LN invoice on open node has min_final_cltv_expiry=80 circa two minutes... onchain is available too.

41 sats \ 3 replies \ @BlokchainB 2 Jan

Or @siggy47 can just send me the invoice amount and I pre pay him directly and hope on good faith he completes the order

92 sats \ 2 replies \ @siggy47 2 Jan

I'll try to figure this out later. Thanks for starting this, @BlockchainB, for two reasons. #1, it is a generous, thoughtful gesture, and #2, because my OP was really a concern about shipping privacy. I have to figure out how to handle that aspect now.

82 sats \ 1 reply \ @BlokchainB 2 Jan

The stackers have spoken plus you do a lot in meatspace going to various social events. I am hoping with some SN gear (that you earned) you can get more people to join this incredible site! We can underestimate the value of marketing and advertising. People can’t join if they never know about it. Recently on my commute to work I saw Mullvad VPN ads and I thought why can’t we do that with stacker news!

0 sats \ 0 replies \ @siggy47 2 Jan

Thanks. I do try in meatspace. I'm sure other stackers have noticed this issue though: a fairly low percentage of new accounts use your referral link, make a few posts, but rarely become regulars. At least that's what's been happening to me so far. Maybe this spanking new t shirt will make a difference!
