Wow! Seriously, I am very excited to have been nominated, let alone to have been voted the winner of a HOF award!

Many thanks to all of the Guild Staff for voting me as the winner of this category, and indeed for creating a great place that encourages the participation of members.

Thank you also to all of those who have been a part of the Pics & History of Your Empire thread - both writers and readers. It is truly fantastic to be involved in a thread such as this, due to the feedback and involvement of all of you, and I have greatly enjoyed reading all of the posted accounts.

Thanks again all!
