I nominate rbtfc to be TOTM. I think that arby is a very nice forum member who always is there to cheer someone up when they're down. Sometimes he says questionable things, but he is a nice person, and a good friend. He also is a kind requester on slower days.
I nominate twirdman. He is constantly posting about multiple requesters, types of work, etc. and is teaching newer people way more than he realizes. Sure, sometimes he posts very long posts, but that's what makes him cool; there's always something to read and learn from him, mturk related or not. He is an all around great guy and gets straight to the point.
I nominate B, for his continued support of the TOTM competition and his earnest love for all of mankind on the forum. May the best human, or nonhuman win.
I nominate Seeker because he's not afraid to share his lucrative batches with everyone and he also helps others to become better at those batches instead of hoarding them for himself.
