I'm just arrived at [livejournal.com profile] purplecthulhu's Cthulhu Towers after a long day at Ploktacon pi - I have won TAFF, and am delighted and currently overwhelmed!
I would like to thank: James for putting so much effort into the race (there was a huge turnout, 290+ votes were cast); my fellow candidates, Sparks and 1/2r, for a fine race; my nominators, my supporters, the League of Fan Funds, and all the voters.

I look forward to coming to the US in July, and visiting as many people as I can!

Thanks again to everyone.

I am made up for you.

If I could mock up a Sun front page I'd do something that said @IT WAS THE FANZINE WOT WON IT!', but I'm sure you'd have won anyway.

Looks like I backed a winner for once! Congrats Bug, wish I'd been there today.

Aw, I heard that power corrupts...

Hey, great.

(And 290+ votes is no small number - I hope you didn't take all of them yourself, that'd have been greedy.)

I am very, very pleased for you! I hope that there will be TAFF reports on your LJ, too...?

Congrats, Bug. Hope we don't have to twist your arm to see you in Seattle! You'll definitely be on the West Coast at one point!

How could I miss Seattle?

Congratulations from Jerry and Suzle!

I just released a PR to the known fannish universe, or at least to those we have email addresses for....

I'll be getting in touch with you soon.

Curious. Maybe my copy got blocked by my "bulk mail" filter.

Fantastic! Hope you don't mind we started celebrating early.

I doubt I'll see you since Denver is off the fan trail, but congratulations. Good luck and all!

A shame, because it would be lovely to see you. Well done bug.

Congratulations.

I will not be there myself but I am saving up for Yokohama in 2007.

Vast congratulations from the crowds here at WisCon, where it's 2:22 a.m.!

I sincerely appreciate your stoic efforts in staying up so late. And thanks!

Glad you got it - did Roger remember to hand in my vote, and was it accepted? Sorry it wasn't on the official form, I lost it somewhere.

Hooray! The rats would love to meet you.

I could do a comparative study on Ratfandom in the UK and US ;-)

Cogratulations :-D

Congratulations! Sorry I couldn't stay to hear the results, but I made sure I got them texted to me as soon as they came out - well I knew I wouldn't get to read LJ until this afternoon, and I couldn't wait that long to find out!
