Welcome to the ReX Awards!*
So, this new site doesn’t have the same thing we used to have where you can see your personal stats for the last year easily. They do have pretty good reporting though, so I thought I would pull together some lists from the last year and recognize everyone’s effort with some new badges**.

Because of the transition to the new site, some of these lists are measured from just after the transition rather than the beginning of the year, and some of them are going to be a little bit off because of when things were added from the vintage site… so we’re just going with the imperfection, because it’s what we have. 
With that said, let’s jump right in:
Category: Legacy Daily Challenge
Before our current Daily Challenge we had the Legacy Daily Challenge, which a lot of people spent a lot of time on, all the way up to the early months of 2024. It’s only right to recognize that effort with some ReX Awards!

Also, huge shout-out to @Lois-Spiceworks , @Jamie-Spiceworks , and @Josh-J-Spiceworks for their amazing assistance with all of this. It would not have happened without them.
* SpiceRex likes to capitalize it differently, as the Rex AWaRdS (RAWRS), and since they are named after him I should probably let him have his way, but I already made the badges, so too bad. ReX Awards it is.
** Please note that if you are listed here, you should be getting a badge, but I didn’t want to give them all out beforehand and ruin the surprise, so it might take a bit to give them all out after this post comes out. If you are listed here and you haven’t gotten a badge after February 1, 2025, feel free to write to community@spiceworks.com and ask for your missing badge(s).
