If you have, please post their member name, and a link to the thread here for me, and I'll deal with it. Thanks! :)**
Well, since you asked, here would be my own list. Note that it really isn't based on single posts, but more of a spirit of helpfullness demonstrated(ie, those that continually try to help out). If you aren't on the list try not to feel too bad. These are just things that jumped out at me, as per Tarn's request:
Rambler from (url="http://"http://www.ambrosiasw.com/webboard/Forum48/HTML/001265.html#")this(/url) thread. He doesn't have many posts, but the few I've seen have been coherent, respectful, and helpful.
Glenn from (url="http://"http://www.ambrosiasw.com/webboard/Forum48/HTML/001266.html#")this(/url) thread. Not much needs to be said here, heh. He's a good poster and has been helping out a lot.
Toast from (rul=http://www.ambrosiasw.com/webboard/Forum48/HTML/001269.html#)this(/url) thread(though if you decide to award him a karma point I'd make it contingent on his editing his post and fixing the bad UBB code call.. 
). While this post isn't what I'd consider an "above and beyond the call of duty" type of thing, his I feel is more of a sum of the composite type of thing. Lots of decent, helpful posts. Kind of like 2 runners-up in a chronicle selection. 
(and he also got 2 different smilies in this write-up)
Spitfire from (url="http://"http://www.ambrosiasw.com/webboard/Forum48/HTML/001257.html#")this(/url) thread. Similar to Toast above he has had several posts that have been helpful. Also, the listed thread shows he is willing to share things he has found outside of CGE that are pertinent and might help others. A very good thing.
Cafall from (url="http://"http://www.ambrosiasw.com/webboard/Forum48/HTML/001251.html#")this(/url) thread. He's the beta-tester that doesn't mind keeping us all updated with things the beta has fixed and keeping us all sane. I for one appreciate the updates.
Tarnćlion Andiyarus from (url="http://"http://www.ambrosiasw.com/webboard/Forum48/HTML/001260.html#")this(/url) thread. It is a nice, friendly, helpful exchange. And I also like watching you try to give yourself karma.
Ok, thats enough for now. It should certainly give you plenty to check out and think about.
(edit) Almost fixed my bad UBB call above, but the irony of it humored me enough to leave it. (/edit)
