Awards for Southern Comfort's Sites

When SC first put up the club site, almost all of the other Rogue sites out there were maintained by the club's own various members.  It was decided early on, then, that the club's overall site shouldn't compete for awards, since its competition might well be its own members' sites.  Still, SC won an occasional award even without actively competing.

Many of the best Rogue sites on the 'Net are still run by SCers, but our site is maintained and has expanded because of input from all the members, some of whom otherwise do not have their own site.  In 2001, several members, many who had contributed much to the SC site and who even had their own site(s), suggested the club actively compete in at least some of the awards categories in the X-Men online community.

We did enter the 2002 X-Day Awards the following year by request again, but have again remained out of competitions as a rule other than that.

These are some awards we've won:

Marty Blase's X-Page: X-Page of the Week
We won this award the first week we went online without competing for it. Marty's site was sort of a "founding father" site for X-Fans and was a pioneer site in helping X-Men fans find one another on a new world-wide web of sites.  Each week he'd find and focus a news article on yet another X-Men based web site that had made its debut and that Marty felt had a lot to offer in information, experience, and/or potential.  Marty's talent for finding new X-Men-based web sites in the days before a hundred or more search engines made his site a phenomenal find in itself.  Marty's weekly awards and articles were missed when he stopped finding as much time and "The X-Page" finally went under new management for a while when he left , but has now left only a legacy, like many other early and great X-Men web sites, although his was something special even among those!   Still, we were all very proud to be one of the very first web sites to receive Marty's coveted

2001 Cinescape/X-Fan Exy Awards: Best Rogue Site Eric J. Moreels founded the highly popular X-Fan site several years ago and for a while it was housed on the Cinescape web site. It's now hosted by X-World and is going stronger than ever! In that year we decided to compete for awards, we submitted SC to the X-Fan awards and were proud to take the top spot for best Rogue site in the 5th Annual "Exy" awards....
