Without any doubt: CONGRATZZZZZ to NoisePullution!!! their post was praised with many words; 'This is well paced and believable, could be part of a movie script', 'great post and I really liked the engagement with the other PC', 'Just... Wow. This is an excellent, poignant post that delves deeply into character development whilst engaging in the narrative, engaging with the other character, and moving the story forward', 'This is a great example of how to do dialogue in play-by-post without waiting for a response between each line. It's a technique that's really hard to get, and even harder to describe, but this post nails it', 'This may be the best post I've here read this year.'

Well deserved! Please read, admire, and show some RPXP-love by clicking those scales at the right top of the post <3

Even though there were only two posts nominated, the judges were challenged by having to decide the winner of this Month. There was competition and nice details in both works, but one post was said to have a bit more richness in details. Quote: "It might have just been the difference of subject matter, or the difference between another angsty grief scene, and a bit more intrigue and threat."
This post was nominated by Banabadger -> This is an excellent balance of a player playing with the party, but also playing with the consequences of the game. Humble Athena is reminding the party that the curse her PC has been given does adversely affect her character's actions and choices, no matter how supportive other PCs might be. It's a great balancing act of promoting group cohesion (by letting all the players in on her turmoil) and allowing previous actions and rolls shape the story.
