GREETINGS EVERYONE AND WELCOME TO OUR SECOND PLAYER OF THE MONTH AWARD!!!
Before I declare the wonderful winner of this glorious prize a short summary on what this is and how I examined everyone while deciding who to give this too. The Player of the Month is an award that I give out every month(with rare exceptions) to the player who has had the most positive impact on the site, community, and everything as a whole. I have decided this through a few observations. Allow me to provide a list of things I looked for.
A. All posts made during the current month: Quantity and Quality both come into play here. Role playing or monologuing I read it all and stuff that stood out earned points. The count of posts serves as a tiebreaker
B. Participation in Seasons during the current Month: A small detail, but being active in the seasons is a big part of our community. Participating in seasons earns your points as well.There were no seasons this month....
C. Mastermind Reference: I asked all our masterminds who hosted to tell me their MVPs and problem players. Getting an MVP reference earns you ALOT of points, while if I was told you were a problem player you lose ALOT of points. No Seasons so this means nothing T_T.
D. Constructive Feedback: Providing feedback on the seasons you played that is constructive and not insulting. Points for providing valuable feedback. No seasons to give feedback on T_T
E. Creativity: This one is a little bit tougher, generally I just looked at whether you have been contributing new minigame, season, or mechanic ideas. Quality matters as well.
F. Skype: Next is participation in the skype chat. This is less about posting alot and more about being a positive impact on the skype chat. Causing arguments or being excessively disruptive results in losing alot of points. Being a problem player in the skype chat is arguably worse than in a season so this is the place where the most points could be lost.
G. Overall Activity: The ultimate Nullifier here. If I judge your overall activity as very minimal I will remove you from the consideration entirely. Whether 20 masterminds liked you or not, if you didn't do anything besides show up and talk to the mastermind in PMs its kinda pointless. This is a 1 or a 0 point. If its 0 you are out of the running, 1 and you are in the running. (Plot twist guess who had 0 this month)

Now that I have elaborated on all that I am sure you are curious who has survived the cut and been selected as our PLAYER OF THE MONTH!
NOW FOR APRIL OF 2015, THE PLAYER OF THE MONTH IS......
-Suddenly, from a nearby explosion-
Upupupupu, HOLD IT HOLD IT HOLD IT! Why are you holding this without myself present! I can't believe you would think to exclude me!
I mean really... Have you really thought about who deserves the prestige, the glory, the despair that is the PLAYER OF THE MONTH?!?!
JUST LOOK AT ALL THE PLAYERS! YOU GUYS WENT ON HIATUS FOR THE ENTIRE MONTH! I WAS ALMOST HOPING TO MYSELF THAT YOU GUYS WOULD COME BACK AND SPREAD SOME DESPAIR! I FELT LIKE I WAS GOING TO EXPLODE WHEN I THOUGHT I WAS HOPING FOR ANYTHING!
All of you went and just took a break from despair... TO ME THAT IS LIKE SAYING I AM TAKING A BREAK FROM LIFE! But I am a kind Monokuma and shall forgive thee for thy transgressions against the great despair in the sky. Hell, I will even help you guys get back into the roll of Despair now that you are all back!
So....I am not doing this cause I want it or anything.....its just to help you guys feel the despair.....
I WILL BE TAKING THE PLAYER OF THE MONTH TROPHY THIS TIME AROUND! CAN YOU FEEL THE DESPAIR?!?! UPUPUPUPUPUPUPUPUPU!
Upupupu... It doesn't matter how much you scream and yell! But the despair in your voice is lovely!
But enough of that! Time to make my despairing getaway!
-Monokuma rapidly accelerates his spinning until the whirlwind obstructs your vision of him. When it dies down he is gone.
Ahahhahahaha! Well that was unexpected. Monokuma strolled in and stole the player of the month trophy. So I guess the winner for the player of the month April is Monokuma, for being the despairing original motivation for the creation of our murder games!
(Hey everyone, hope you enjoyed the little skit. I decided not to award PotM to anyone for April as it would have been a very...awkward award to give. Nobody had more than 5 meaningful posts and none of it really contributed to the site. Yeah fun and camaraderie here and there, but just what I expect as a minimum. To put it bluntly, everyone combined did less than Poke did last month. That was kinda sad overall so I felt the award would be really empty this month and have no meaning. Sorry for misleading you on this matter.)
