AHAHHAH IS THAT THE FIFTIETH PAGE I SEE

Since SWC has ended for lots of timezones I’m just going to post my thank you’s :D
It was a very awesome session, and I’m thankful for everyone!! I just can’t write so many thank you notes or it’ll be the same thing-ish

I don’t think I’m going to apply next session, but I’ll be a camper hopefully! So it’ll be cool to see what the hosts and leaders kind-of think of for future sessions :)


Soft:
Softt :00 I think we met in December?? We don’t talk much but you’re an amazing person! Thank you for choosing me as one of your co-leaders, and we didn’t talk too much - but it was great leading with ya :sparkles:

Ollie:
Ollieeee! You were the one who kept us leaders going with excitement- your idea for the matching icons was really awesome and I might use it every so often to remind me of thriller ;0

Sini:
Even if you hate Thriller (The genre overall), you are very cool & a role model to me :D Thank you for hosting in the past, and continuing to sort-of host currently! Sinistar will forever be in our hearts.

Alba:
:arson:
You’re a really great person, and your singing is really awesome ;00 on a side note- thank you for hosting SWC for quite a while!

Birdi:
Birdiiiii- you survived your first host session :0 and Scratch Team made you stressed /j but you were really fast paced into putting out a project on how the new studio update will work! Thank you for hosting, and can’t wait to see what you do in the future :)

Bakie, Li, Honey, Kat: You all are amazing :000 Personally I don’t know you very well (I don’t know the co-hosts well either-), but you all have worked very hard to put together yet another session ^^

Starr:
Writing queen and awesome overall! Your idea for your cabin theme was just super great, and having campers in quarters reminds me of The Hunger Games for some reason xD

Jinty:
Jintyyyy stan :sparkles: Don’t think you support Thriller, but oh well

Polar:
My first SWC co-leader ;0 and then I got to co-lead for you (Plot twist wow), you’re a really great person! though you warred thriller >:((

Dogfin:
DOGFINNNN, my partner in crime irl/!?? Hi :wave: you are cool

Amy & Gigi:
You guys are great :00 allies forever ehehe

Robin:
When I first saw your username on the November 2020 SWC camper signups I was intimidated right away xD Turns out you seem to be a very cool person even if I’ve never talked to you before :P

Every other (co) leader sorry for not writing thank you notes to you, trust that you are amazing yourself!:
You all were amazing :0 It was awesome (co) leading with you allll.

Hope to see you in November?!!? One year of SWC for me in November _10mil_

thank you notes!! https://scratch.mit.edu/discuss/topic/530873/?page=1#post-5486611

This month has flown by so quickly - and now it's time for me to write these notes, hehe. July has been absolutely incredible thanks to everyone here, and I'm sorry to say that this is probably my last time being a leader, but it was amazing while it happened xD

Aaand the notes <3

• • •

(Co) Hosts - You all rock. This has been an especially challenging session, what with the studio updates and crazy amount of people, but thank you for keeping calm in face of crisis and just,, for doing everything you do, I appreciate you all so much.

Alba: Can I just say that you are so so awesome? The effort you put into SWC is crazy and without you it definitely wouldn't be this organized. I know lots of unexpected things have come up this SWC and the way you dealt with them is so mature. And your writing! I've read your writing comp entry and the first draft of IRON,, and why are you so eloquent :sob: Your incredible voice too - unfortunately I've never been able to hear you sing in *ahem* but I really hope I'll catch it sometime xD You're also an amazing friend, and while we haven't talked much recently (</3) I appreciate your friendship so much and I'm glad I can call you a friend. Thank you for everything <3

Birdi: You, as well, are so cool. This is your first time hosting - and you've done an incredible job. I can't even imagine how hard and tiring hosting much be, and yet you deal with it all with the grace, maturity and talent that leave me without words to describe them. You're so good at interactiing with campers and you're always so patient with everyone. And the effort you put into everything is crazy - your leader apps, actually really a l l the projects that you share. You've been an amazing friend as well. I love your presence in Seayours (hehe) and though we haven't had much conversations this month the ones we did have were so fun. I really hope to know you better in the future, thank you so much <3

Honey: Love your personality, and though they don't happen often and are usually rather short, our conversations are all so interesting. Your art is also legendary; it's so realistic and detailed and I'm running out of words now xD You're also so smart and I'm so happy to find another person who likes math - not to mention your coding and spreadsheet skills. Thank you for everything to do to make SWC run, you're amazing.

Kat: SPREADSHEET QUEEN <3 Seriously though - your way with spreadsheets is amazing, as is the work you put into ensuring SWC runs smoothly. Honestly, just thinking about sorting makes my head hurt, and you're the one who has to do all the actual work xD So thank you, thank you, thank you and I really admire your responsibility and maturity <3

Bakie: HIHIHIHIHI CAN I JUST SAY I LOVE YOUR ENERGY AND PERSONALITYY- I don't know how you do it, but you can cheer everyone up with your way of talking (or should I say typing, hehe). Your art, too, is incredible, - I loved the comics you included in your leader app for this session - teach me your wayss :pleading_face: Your work scheduling all the dailies and weeklies was also so incredibly well done, even though I didn't do all of them they were all so fun. Thank you for being an amazing friend too (though we should talk moree), and thank you for sharing your kindness and brilliance with everyone <3

Li: I don't know you that well and I don't think we've ever talked (or have we? Hmm) but thank you as well for the work you do as an host, SWC wouldn't be the same without you <3

• • •

Co-leaders - Thank you. Thank you for agreeing to co-lead with me - it definitely hasn't been an easy ride so thank you for facing it all along with me. Thank you for putting up with all my big ideas that never actually got done, for putting up with my late-description-changing, for being so good with our campers, for everything. I don't know where I would be without you two - so just, thank you more than I can say <3

Elle: First of all, I loved your co-leader app. The theme was amazing and the aesthetics aaa <33 Thank you for accepting my weird and before hand offer to be my co - I'm so glad I got to lead with you. Second, what I love even more about you is your sweet personality. You're always there to give encouragement to a camper, to chat with someone, or to just give a kind word to someone who's down, and I really admire that about you. Although I still don't know you as well as I wish I did, it's still been a pleasure to talk with you this past month - even if our conversations are mostly about SWC (which we should change xD). Thank you for being an awesome co leader <3

Wishes: Your leader app was amazing as well - I loved the little effects, the art was so clean and the answers were so top quality. I'm glad that I got to steal you, hehe. And thank you for being an amazing co leader as well! For adding points, organizing cabin wars, helping me work through our scavenger hunt (even if it didn't work out in the end xD), the list is endless. Everything about you screams ‘incredible’ - incredible maturity, incredible kindness, incredible responsiblity, so thank you so much for sharing those with all of us. I really do hope to know you better as well, and thank you for being my co leader this session; I couldn't have asked for a better one. <3

• • •

Aaand now, fellow leaders and co leaders - some of which I don't know very well yet, but I'd love to talk, anytime! I did all the leaders and the co's I knew well - but if you're not there, know that you're amazing as well, I just don't know you as well as I'd like xD

Polar: First, I loved your leader app so so so much - the theme was so creative and the vibes were just,, so perfect aaa <3 Very excited to see your next one, if you're still applying, hehe. Second, I don't know you that well, but from I can see, you're responsibility, maturity and kindness are unmatchable - speaking of which, thank you for adding so many main cabin points xD <33

Jinty: HI JINT <3 I love your sense of humor, and your compassion to everyone - thank you for caring about my hair, hehe. Your writing comp entry was also. so. good?? Not to mention your WPM is legendary, h o w do you do itt xD Anyways, timezones are a pain but I'm hoping we'll be able to talk more in the future <33

Bookie: Again, we haven't talked much, but I truly admire your dedication to everything you choose to do. And of course, I love your :sparkles: hair :sparkles: very much, hehe.

Starr: STARR <3 You are amazingly amazing and can I just say that I love Dystopian setup? The weeklies and dailies and quarters are all so well thought out; you truly put so much effort into it. Almost makes me want to be a Dystopian camper, hehe. Thank you for everything - for letting me see Dystopian's spreadsheet to set up my own (huuuge lifesaver), for talking to me when I needed it, for always being there, and most importantly, for being the best sibling ever. Here, have some cookies- (And your writing is :starstruck: need I say more?)

Robin: BETRAYAL QUEEN! And the fact that all the cabin wars rhymed makes you even more of an icon, hehe. I'm so glad we got to talk more this summer - thank you for being a funny, compassionate and talented leader (your spreadsheet skills are *chefs kiss*) and an even better friend (and say hi to your chickens for me!)

Sea: Hi hi hi!Why do you get to be so talented at everything you do, from your art to your music to your writing to your kind personality to your maturity? It's honestly astonishing and what makes you even awesomer is that along with the talent, you also have the effort to go with it - so thank you for sharing that with us. Thank you for being my friend too, and I'll try to be better about replying in time xD

Cherry: Love your art and piano and I really enjoyed the Dystopia fanfiction with me in it xD Are you going to finish it? I'm very interested in seeing how I turn out, hehe.

Soft: Aaa I don't know you that well and I don't think we've talked, but you seem really kind (and I love your username, hehe) <33

Gigi: First leader of fanfiction, hehe - I love fanfiction a great deal too so I'd love to get to know you better ^^ We haven't ever talked, but I've seen you around and comment stalked a bit and you seem very cool B)

Sprout: Hii <33 We haven't really talked at all, but I love your energetic and kind personality. I know things are hard for you now, but I also know that you have the strength and courage to get through it - wishing you the best <33

Replay: Another intimidating person xD Seriously though, I loved the ideas that you had for Non-Fi and wished I had the creativity you have. And the looong forum post you posted here a while ago - I'm just going to quote Kat on this one, but your ideas are BOMB. I'm really glad that you came back to SWC (even if it's only for this one session) and that I got to lead alongside this SWC legend. Oh, and thank you for giving me critique on my leader app, hehe.

Pi: Very cool person - hii! Thank you for making a new, updated SWC FAQ; I directed a lot of campers towards it (and checked it a few times myself) so for that I'm very grateful. Again, we've barely talked but I'm hoping we'll do more of that in the future <33

Cara: Thank you for organizing and helping out with so many hosty things - and I loved the Queen Caramel Lize project idea, hehe. We haven't really talked, but I have comment stalked your chat studio and you seem really kind as well <33

Creamie: I LOVED your leader app - not only was the idea very creative but your singing is beautiful and I hope we'll get to hear more of it in the future. Moving on, you're also very nice and I'm hoping that our short exchanges will possibly lengthen xD

Alyelle: Let me just start off by saying that the matching pfps you made were absolutely gorgeous - as all of your art is. The theme song you composed was also so good and your dedication to SWC is amazing. I'm really glad I got to see another side of the art goddess this July and I'm hoping that we can talk more in future days <3 (And thank you for giving us motivation during cabin wars very curious though, why did you want to ally with us xD

Thank you all for this incredible month <3

BESTIE NOOOO </3 (aLThough i don't think i'm applying for leader next session either)
will you still participate as a camper and be online :pleading_face: we really do need to talk more and not just about h a i r

I know I'm a bit late but here are my thank you notes! Hope to see you all next session!

Alba: Thanks so much for hosting this session, the way you kept calm and organized everything during the studio update was incredible. Every time I listen to you sing or write, I'm completely blown away all over again. Again, thanks so much for being an amazing and awesome host.

Bakie: BAKIEE, you're the first real real friend I've had on scratch and I'm extremely thankful I've gotten to know you so well <3 You're always there to provide encouragement, inspiration, and motivation. You're super caring and always want people to have good habits (even if you'd have to go to some extreme measures), you did a great job leading Myth and the drawing on the thumbnail was so so beautiful?! I was at loss for words when I first saw it, thank you for being amazingg.

Honey: I don't know you as well as I would like to but from what I can tell, you're super responsible and awesome. You also have quite the talent there as I don't think I would be able to ignore the amount of reminders you set? That's like :0 incredible skill xD

Kat: kjdfhksdjfhksjdfh you're literally good at . . . everything!? You're so responsible and mature I could go on and on. You're also an absolute genius when it comes to spreadsheets- I don't even know how to change the color of the cell without deleting something, like Daisy said, how in the world do you do everything during the day and manage to sleep early? It's impossible.

fairy tales:

Birdi: BIRDIIIIIIIIIIIIi I'm so happy I got to know you so well this session, I never imagined you'd actually pick me to be your co xD You're extremely mature and responsible for your age and your sleep schedule and water intake is off the charts, you also care so much about Daisy and I, we're forever thankful for you (except for the times when we're being threatened to drink water /j) Thank you so much for everything, but more importantly being one of my closest friends <33

Daisy: DAISYYY You have talents no one else in the world possesses including the ability to lose anything and everything, somehow almost burning down the house all the time? and being absolutely crazy, amazing, and kind all the time. I know we've only known each other for a couple months, but just from that I can tell you're a great leader (including the fact that you help set great examples), thanks for bringing all that chaos into my life xD

—

Starr: STARRARAR I don't quite know you as well as I know some other people but I already know you're smart, kind, and responsible (since you obviously support Kat) from the few conversations we've had. You're leader app was very creative?! And the answers- It makes a good example for me to look at xD

Cara: Nice job with the fantasy cabin! I love the setup and everything about it was amazing. We don't ever really talk but hopefully that'll change in the future ^^

Replay akjfhakjsdhk why are there so many people I've never talked to, well done with non-fi! I love the theme.

Creamie: CREAMIEE YOUR SINGING IS ABSOLUTELY STUNNING, YOU ALSO DID A GREAT JOB WITH CONTEMP AS YOUR FIRST TIME LEADING, hope to see you around more

Bright: Another person I've only talked to once! rip, anywayss the real-fi matching icons are very nice, the cabin looks great!

Soft: I hope you enjoy life outside of Scratch since I know you're leaving, Scratch can be pretty time consuming. Goodluck!

Gigi: Let me just start off with the fact that I love the fanfic thumbnail xD It reminds me of a website I saw some time ago, you're cabin looks super fun and I'm sure all your campers enjoyed it! I'm sure you're an awesome leader :>

Pi: We also haven't talked much, but from what I can recall the last time we did talk was about if cereal was a soup Horror is super fun to stalk and it's super funny that there's a pi and a pie in your cabin xD

Robin: FINALLY SOMEONE I ACTUALLY KNOW A LITTLE MORE, HI-FI WAS AWESOMEE, AND THE FACT THAT YOU BETRAYED ALL YOUR ALLIES!? KJSDHSKJFHKDJFH PLAIN EVIL /j ANYWAY GREAT JOB WITH HI FI

Bookie: That story you're writing with Fi is sooo good- I don't have enough words to describe it, I admire your dedication and the ability to judge so many entries for scratch got talent, that sounded like a pain to do.

Alyelle: You're a great leader like always, you have an extremely active cabin and good plot, I think we're all slightly jealous of your cabin, your campers are dedicated :0

Sprout: We've only talked a couple times but you seem like an amazing person ^^' I hope to see you around

Polar Your piano skills are off the charts, how in the world do you play so many good songs by ear!? That's a mystery to me, you were a great leader!
