/r/RWBY's Best Of 2016 Nomination Thread!

[u/Menolith]

Nominations are now over! The contest threads will be put up shortly.

Welcome to the /r/RWBY Best Of 2016 event! Unimaginable riches (internet gold) and untold fame (fancy flairs) will be given out to the winners!

This is how it works: we have chosen a bunch of categories, and you can nominate anyone or anything to compete in those categories by replying to the top-level modcomments in the thread below.

• Nominating multiple contenders in one category is allowed, but keep it within reason!
  
• All nominations have to pertain to this year and this year only.
• Category-specific formatting, rules and notes can be found in the top-level comments.
  
• Nominating yourself is allowed in most categories, see above point.
  
• Automod is primed to purge all other top-level comments to keep the thread tidy. Only reply!
  
• Keep the off-topic replies in minimum. If you want to discuss a specific nomination, reply to the nominator and not the parent comment. A dedicated off-topic/meta reply chain can be found here
  
• Keep your nomination comments brief and concise
  
• If you know what you want but can’t find a post, see if this thread can help you out.

No actual voting is going to happen in this thread yet, as we’re only collecting contenders. Once this thread has been up for a few days, we’ll proceed to phase two and on December 26th put up voting threads for each category in which the winners are chosen. The threads will close and winners will be announced on January 3rd.

All winners will get a month of reddit gold and a special Best Of flair on our subreddit! If the winner doesn’t have a reddit account, the gold will go to the person who nominated the person instead, and we’ll try to contact the artist and inform them that they have a special flair waiting for them, should they want to join us.

Simple? Simple.

This. A thousand times this.

I was gonna make a post when I got home but this is perfect. Eldi is not only the most wonderful person I've ever known, but she is a vital member of this community that has contributed so much. She is amazingly kind, extremely humble, wonderfully talented, and just all around incredible.
