Thank you I don't even know what to say other than this is all a surprise to me I just try to help make everything a little bit better one moment at a time
Nice, Neil! Well deserved. You've been pushing it for years. Definitely deserve this for the effort you put into the interior design comps.
Congratulations on being named the very first MVP, Neil! I'm not in the Discord, and can't say I've dug much around the forums, but I do recognize you from the Avi and Dorm contests. It's nice to see you get well-deserved special recognition from ATA!
👏 Love to see player recognition and Neil is a solid choice, congrats 🥳 We would love to see the swag 👀
Congratulations, Neil! This is so well deserved. I know that I come to you first with game questions and concerns. I’m glad it’s finally being publicly recognized.
Hey everyone i just got my gifts from our lovely game devs here's a few pics of them And I still am not sure what I did to deserve it but I thank everyone from the devs to mods especially those who have helped me over the years organize my dorm contest and even to the community as a whole I was only able to win these awesome goodies because of the support I get so thank you everyone. Ps stay tuned my dorm contest will be here again before we know it
