 Honorary Award: Wiethoofd For his longstanding dedication to the community. It is hard to count how many streams he has produced over the last two decades. Estimates at the time of this award put it well over 500 if not nearing a 1000. Guiding casters, creating tools and overall helping many find their voice without expecting anything in return.

A long overdue award for the person who can only be described as the bedrock of the global casting community (And not to forget Whitelist.tf)

Also a special congratulations to mezzo for having surpassed CeeJaey as the most awarded player in etf2l history! Now having 19 awards total.
