Wow, that's cool! A creative idea on making all of us FOMs. I like how they put people's banners at the bottom too!!

Creative? Lack of ideas, I calls it. Couldn't be bothered to seek out any individuals.
I'd better shut my cakehole now; in the past I've always been flamed every time I dared to criticise OI.

they haven't added my fansite yet, but putting my banner on there is some consolation...

(Laughs) You know, the only reason they did this is because they're trying to finish the game and don't have time to do a real fan of the month... not that I'm complaining

Congratulations Everyone!
I'd like to address a few of these comments here.
We did not choose the Forums as FOM because we are lazy or too busy with the game.
As a "group" you are outstanding! Loyal and patient. The topics are fun to read. We wanted to acknowledge all of YOU!

Well, it's cool that we all got in FOM as a group, but they could of at least mentioned my Kitten topic, it being the biggest topic on the board. Well, it was Off-Topic, I suppose.

That was incredibly rude and ungrateful to say that OWI chose Oddworld Forums as a result of a lack of ideas and not bothering to seek out individuals. How could you say that?

We are incredibly lucky to have this kind of interaction with the company that creates the games we so admire. Their decision to honor Oddworld Forums to make us all Fans of the Month shows that they really do care about and appreciate about us. Wash your mouth out with soap this instant!

Alf: Sorry about that. We really do appreciate and worship you and your creators; we really do! And thankyou for being so kind with the Fan of the Month, the majority of us are in awe.

Thanks Sydney and Abe Babe!

I wanted to apologize to a few of you for not updating the fan sites page. We've been having "technical" problems here. Hey, it's 2 a.m. and I'm still slaving away!

OddBod and Gluk Schmuck, hang in there! Your reviews will be coming out this month.
Thanks so much for your patience guys! Alf

You all a bunch of lamos for saying that it oddworld is lazy. LAZY THEY HAVE BEEN TRYING TO WORK ON THE GAME PLUS ANSWER OUR ANNOYING QUESTIONS PLUS UPDATE THE WEBSITE PLUS ORGANISE THEIR BUISINESS PLUS MAKE SOME PANCAKES. Sydman is right, you are rude for such a thing turn around and slap your bum for being so pishimit (sounds cool so i used it )

Oh and Alf you spelt my name right, your supposed to spell it wrong ODDBODD. double d, i did that because odd ends wit double d!

Heyz. I dont think they are lazy, i think that with this amount of interaction we are quite lucky that Lorne and his crew have stayed down to earth unlike other Gamer programmers etc etc. But wot peeps did say was rude. But wot peeps said in reply (Sticking up for OI) Sounded so much like you were brown nosing them (That means sucking up) I mean sure they were wrong to say that OI were lazy but come on...do you really have to go to such a extent that you have a go at them and try and impress and show how loyal u r to OI. Geez, get a grip ppl.

I think it was a great idea to make us all to fans of the month! And i never would think that they're lazy! They really work hard on Munch's Oddysee...That was rude to think or to say that they lazy are!

eeew...Sydney, that would be disgusting when someone washes the mouth with soap! eeew!!

I really can't wait to play the next game

Whoa whoa WHOA! I didn't mean at ALL that OWI is lazy or that they don't care! All I meant was that they have their priorities straight by focusing on finishing the game instead of on the FOM thing... I meant no disrespect at all! Very sorry if I wasn't clear.

Yay! this is great for me, I was thinking of making a website just so I had a shot at being an FOM! now I don't have to do all the work! YAY! weird thing is I'm probably gonna build an oddworld site anyway!

and BTW my birthday is coming up! I'll turn 13 on August 12! ( just thought I'd say that now because I'm going to move to Bartlesville on my b-day and my comp. will probably packed away in a neat little box, )
