Mod Note: We had a number of incredibly wonderful individuals who stepped in to pinch hit for us despite not being part of the initial sign-ups. Because we think these people are awesome and they are definitely part of the success of Holmestice, we (the mods and a few totally rockin' volunteers) put together some thank-you gifts for them!
