Thanks!

Forgive me for not saying something witty yet self-effacing, but if
I did then I'd have to think of something else for the acceptance
speech.

That's right, they did. They were the first first penguins, and I'm
the fifth first penguin.

The press release itself includes a quote from me: "The fact that
MUD's have a direct connection to the imagination is what hooked
thousands".  I'm pretty sure I didn't say that apostrophe; it must
be my English accent.
