Microsoft MVP Award
-
Congratulations Scott. I'm sure that you'll soon be getting a CP MVP as well - the double whammy. :-D
Deja View - the feeling that you've seen this post before.
Thanks Pete. A CP MVP would be cool as well...don't think my message count vs. score is up there yet.

By the way (I know it is early days for you - You have a LOT of information coming your way over the next couple of weeks!) Do you think you'll make it to the MVP Summit in April[^]? If you are, I'm thinking of putting together a get-together for the MVPs that are regulars on Code Project on the Sunday Evening before the summit. (See here[^]) I did one of these a while ago in London[^] which was really good fun.

So far the new year is starting off on the right foot. I woke up this morning to an email this morning from Microsoft letting me know that I received the 2008 Microsoft MVP Award in Visual Developer - Visual C#. Thanks for all you have done over the last year to help me achieve this!

I definately want to make it to the MVP Summit, just not sure I'll be able to because of the timing...if I do make it I'd love to meet some of the CP regulars.

But this year I will take a more positive and active role and see if I can rope in an MVP award come 2009
They are awarded quarterly - So April 1st is the next award date (and the one I'm on - It is slightly freaking getting a congratulations email on April Fools Day)

I think I wouldn't believe it! :laugh: It would be really funny getting such an email and then emailing back an FU to find out it was real :laugh: Seriously though, I doubt I'll be able to do it by 1st of April, and when I give myself a whole year as a buffer I can make up for lost time that way! ;)

Microsoft had been in touch over the previous 2 months to ask if they could monitor me, and if so, where could they monitor me, so I knew it was a possibility. Also, the email included security credentials for parts of the Microsoft website to allow me access to stuff and since it worked I knew it was real.

Can you tell me what the winning lottery numbers are too? :) I just saw the Dec. 31 CP newsletter which announced the list of CP MVPs and I was awarded as a CP MVP for 2008 as well.
