Player Of The Year, Round 2: Depardieu

Name: StopHeart    "Since I've known StopHeart he has never changed!" "I feel as though we are bound by blood like brothers." "if anyone deserves it more, its him!" "When he got lvl 52 DK all were excited and he was very thankful to ALL who helped him get to where he is." "He is kind to those in lineage he doesnt even know." "He never complains about helping those dear to him with adena or hunting time."       "He has grown ever closer to his friends never leaving them alone." "He cares deeply for all."

Name: XSilverLeafX    "He is i think the only elf who regularly hunts on 81floor which is no small feat and he boss hunts more then any other elf i know" "Hhe helped me get an item back when i died and dropped it and has always talked to me even though he is alot higher level."

He has always been fair to people in the pledge and outside of the pledge and always gives people a chance to voice their opinion and ideas.

I think he helps keep the spirit of lineage alive and is just a great, really strong player."       "He has always given me friendly advice and buffed me when im at the mana tree." "XSilverleafX has been an inspiration for all of us elfs. He is the highest level elf that i know of who has fought. hunted bosses, and defended seiges for 12 levels. While some elfs have taken year long breaks, and others sold their accounts, silverleaf has remained true, and I think he is an inspiration, not only to us elfs but to all classes."

Name: ZeFeroth    "The power he holds is what most only dream of accomplishing." "I think he should win because he is one of the oldest players in dep history." "He has been an idol of many players accross all US servers for a long time."

"There shouldnt be a tie this time..it should go all out 200% americangirls way!!!" "She is by far the kindest, best sport, sweetest person i know in Lineage" "She deserves player of the year more than anyone ever deserved anything in the history of anyone deserving anything !!"       "She deserves this! a second chance at player of the year!!!!"

"Sometimes she's taken time to actually guide someone to a location n the game, or to rescue someone that was lost." "She uses good judgement before starting projects or making decisions within the pledge and the game."

She created her own very detailed map and posted it to this site for all to view or download: http://xanaduccgs.20m.com/photo.html" "Some say her Pledge structure is more complex than others in the game, but If that's what keeps it going, then it must be the best one here!       "She seems to be helping her members alot at various times in game and not asking for re-imbursement, but many of us do return or donate items to her, as a thanks for her kindness :)" "Many in game use her price guides that she has posted on the pledge forum, it's been maintained for nearly 3yrs at least."

"He is very kind and generous" "He makes Lineage a fun place."       "He always goes out of his way to help anyone that needs it" "He's such a good friend."

Player Of The Year, Round 2: LoA

Name: BiteMe - Class: Elf - Level: 55    "He is always friendly to talk to and helps out other people both in and out of the pledge."

"He motivated me to hit 50 not by just cheering me one but party hunting with me on 54 until I hit 50 pushing me so hard that I actually fell asleep one time while following him around and he had to call pledge for help to get an ROTC brought up so he could mass TP me out of there so I wouldn't die." "I know as well as anyone I wouldn't be where I am right now if it wasn't for him." "He's one of the most loyal members to any pledge second to none on loyalty with no matter how hard the server wide wars on loa have gotten, he always stuck with it. He will never leave his fellow pledge mates to walk that line alone." "He never yells and no matter how many female mood swings I've had he always just shrugs them off. A woman on the road to 50 is nothing short then an emotional roller coaster that he went on over and over again with a smile. " "Noobs.. This man will still help them... If he see's a noob in trouble he'll help. He actually sets back his own time to help people in this game because he loves it and just wants others to enjoy it as well."       "When I was a level 49 elf at 26% I was going to quit the game cuz there was just no desire to keep up leveling a dex elf and one day he asked me if I wanted to go hunting with him. As totally shocked as I was that this mage wanted me to go with him I thought he was an amazing player to watch so of course I said yes. I went on many hunts with him and friends shortly after that including this one where we were up on 28 and he just charged into this closed room paraing, freezing, and solo killing all of it leaving me in just total awe." "My home life is so busy too that we'd hunt for a few mins then I'd have to run afk for 10 mins.. back to hunting for 30mins and out for another 20mins. Never once did he make me feel bad for always having to leave. He always let me know it was ok and that he didn't mind waiting for me to finish whatever it was I needed to at the time. This wasn't just a one day thing either this was months, day after day routine."

Name: Siren - Class: Elf - Level: 52    "Shes always been a great support." "He’s helped out a couple noob friends of mine" "She stepped up and told Amour she would help keep all us wild cavemen under control." "Many years of hard work " "She makes me behave when im moody and about to blowup some expencive items or quit" "I’ve seen many of his posts on websites and it seems that the majority of the people know of him and he is very well liked." "Great team spirit and support for our pledge"       "She's taking a great deal of time helping to run our pledge" "I think she deserve to be nominatated." "The time she is willing to put into people and help them with their problems in and out of game is extensive."
