I'd like to take a moment apart from my fun and silly awards that I've had the pleasure to be handing out, to hand out a different sort of award. It isn't one that was voted on, or any one could submit nominations to. It's a very special award that comes directly from me and is given to a member of this beloved community to show my utmost appreciation, love, gratitude and so much more. I am handing this award out to a member who, with out them, the Galaxy Cauldron may have collapsed in on it's self, and I may have burnt myself dry of the Sailor Moon community.


I once took a risk on a new member in the early stages of this forum, when I had only a vague idea of where I wanted to take this place, and what was truly needed to make it into a loving place where SM fans truly had a safe place to share all their love for Sailor Moon. If you build it they will come, however, the first step is laying a foundation, and that takes time, effort, and a whole lot of sanity. This member stepped up and offered her time, and I gave her a job. She took it in stride, molded it, shaped it, and has perfected it. Not only has she done that, but she has had to do it with me as her "boss". I'll be the first to admit that I am far from the easiest person to work with, and I come with a few flaws. She was able to help keep me up and going, even when she most likely didn't realize it, she didn't judge me, for being me, she understands who I am and how I work, and is always striving to be the best she can be, which inspires me to keep going.


We've been there several admin since our opening, my original group is long since disbanded, and we've slowly been filling in the rest. She is a perfect example of a Moonie, an Admin, a friend, an artist, and an amazing human being. And so, for helping make the Galaxy Cauldron what it is today, I present the first of it's kind, the Queen's Brooch Award, and with it, a "boon" of sorts, so that she may request one thing from me in which I will never turn down.


Sailor Jupiter.... Rebecca, thank you my dear, for putting up with me, and being here from the Cauldron, the world would be hard pressed to find another Admin and Member's Director as amazing as you.

Congratulations, Rebecca!

You know, back when I first joined this place and was fumbling around in my first forum ever, I -- well, lol, I forget what I did, but I remember that I was in a PM conversation with you, and at first I was all nervous, like "o_o omg she's an admin, I'm in trouble. I'm in soooo much trouble," and felt like I was in over my head with everything, bumbling around blindly and feeling like I was intruding and all sorts of stuff, but you were so nice and friendly (as you always are!) and our conversations just made me feel so much better about it all.

Speaking with you gave me this little boost of confidence on the boards because I believed that, even if I messed up, you'd be there with a smile and some way to help.

Thank you, Sailor Jupiter! ヾ(＾∇＾) You really make the cauldron shine!

Congrats Jupiter!

Awww yay! Congrats Jupi! you're so awesome! You've definitely made me feel welcome as well when I joined (and had no idea what I was doing XD). Thank you for that and being such a cool person ^^

Congratulations Rebecca! You are absolutely amazing!

NQS, thank you for the back story and the tidbits or the origin of the Forum. <3

Congratulations, Rebecca!!!

You DESERVE this award! You are such a generous and kind person, also you have a very warm heart. I'm/we're very lucky to have you here and as our friend! You are such a wonderful person, I just want to SQUEEZE YOU! <333333

Congratulations!

Congratulations!

Congrats Jupi

Congrats Jupi, you've been around as long as I have, but have been an admin longer than me and I know you've done lots of work around the forum. As you can tell, its much appreciated by the members and we are glad to have you here. Congrats.

Hehe, congratulations to you, Becca! Like everyone else, I definitely agree that you've earned this award and then some. Let's hope that you're here next year this time, too.

Congrats Jupiter! You totally deserve this <3

awww....congratulations jupiter.^^

Congradulations! I know I haven't been an official member here very long, but I have observed the Cauldron for a while and I must say that you are an outstanding member.
When I did decide to join, your welcome message gave me that nice warm snuggley feeling inside. Thank you for all that you do.

Aww jupi! *big hugs* your little chibi thunderbolt loves you!

Once again, I am left speechless and touched in ways more than I can say. I never expected to receive this award, this special treasured gift. What you wrote, Crystal was so beautiful and kind and it just means so much to me to know how much you care about me. I do my best but I do not imagine it to be so extraordinary, so to be noticed like this really touches and humbles me.

Like you said, it's been a long trip since the begining when I first joined this forum. In fact, it was this place that rekindled my love for Sailor Moon. I have never been apart of a Sailor Moon forum before, and my last forum experience left scars so I never expected that I would join another one, much less become an Admin. I did not think that you were going to accept my application when I sent it in! I had only been here... a week, yes? And I was so nervous. I thought that you would give me a trial run and then let me go. But you decided to keep me and I have fallen in love with this place. It is such an honour to be your Admin, to you Neo Queen Serenity and to all of you members here that I have come to care for so much.


Thank you, love, and thank you everyone for having me.

Congrats Becks! ^___^
