    Congrats to Cloud, who won the IIA Net Visionary award for Social Contribution tonight!

    He was still [strike]on the beer[/strike] drinking* when I left! ;)

    *Probably non-alcoholic

    I think* he was in the bar when I left. I wasn't tasting his drink though ;)

    *Please note that this and other observations are currently being reviewed by my brain (which hurts)

    And commiserations to Damien!

    Well done John, they took their time recognising your contributions to the Irish online community. Who else can claim to have built a community of 40,000 people and be so humble about it?

    And er no, I wasn't sulking or anything "ing" in the loo. I wasn't there as I had college and also the organisers wanted me to pay €175 to attend an awards ceremony where I was nominated!

    Hope the lucozade hangover isn't too bad John!

    How did Alan do and the other boards.ie nominees?

    Editing my original post to point out the fact that this alleged drinking may not have actually happened.

    I'd hate to tarnish Cloud's perfect reputation :v: :eek:

    Hey! Thanks everyone... It was really a great night - feelling a little guilty that I won :) Damien - next year for you I hope...

    I wanted to thanks all you boards people (boardizens, boardians, boardish, my beople?) for your support and also the moderating team for the great job that you do - but there were no speeches and anyway my voice was going! Actually, the combo of talking all night and my cold meant that my voice was almost totally gone on Friday... *croak*

    So thanks anyway to you all for voting!

    WizZard - did I meet you on the night (don't have a username - real name link for you)...

    John.

    Nope, I kinda felt it'd be a bit weird going up and saying "Hey, I spend most of my time on your site. Hi, I'm ...". I would have felt like a groupie, and I think it's only ecksor that has those ;)
    I'll say hello at the next beers.
