This is exactly what it says on the tin. What would you consider to be your best threads here on Chaos?
The parameters are pretty broad. You can focus on what you think was the best written, what had the most impact on your characters, a thread that introduced you to a great writer, or a thread that surprised you in a good way, etc. Share your beautiful memories, people.
For me, I've been in a lot of great threads over the course of this past year, but Chasing a Rumor On Samovar is still my high point (so far). It was one of the first threads I wrote as Nimdok, and it wound up turning out pretty good for everybody involved despite being a dreaded public thread. It also laid the foundation for what Nimdok would become - I began the thread writing him as just an eccentric archaeologist, and ended it with him having developed a set of personal principles and a much clearer goal. I also met several great writers through that thread, people I've gone on to collaborate with in other stories to great success.
