So, when was the time (And who's the winner)? I'm curious.
I picked Feburary 1st as the winning date. Not surprising Jhawthorn was our winner given the amount of updates he makes. I've been out of town for work otherwise I would have posted the result sooner.

Yeah, I lost a day somewhere that week. If it makes you happy I retroactively pick January 31st as the winning day. Our new winner is Jhawthorn!!!

Forgot my smiley face :)

If you go look at the wiki modification history Jhawthorn would have been the winner on either day.

I think we need to hold another month-long competition so we decrease the number of items on the Wish List.

It would be in contests like these that Osdev T-shirts would be awesome.
