Hey Munchies!
As every December, I present to you this year’s Munchy of the Year post. For organisational reasons, the categories this year have been reduced to a level similar to the original MOTY format. I have asked for help from the entire staff team to eliminate as many of my personal biases as possible, but keep in mind that the final nominations were decided entirely by myself. However, in the end, it is up to you as the community to decide who deserves to win these awards the most! The results will be hidden until the polls close on January 14th, at which point the winners will be determined and announced. Here is a list of all previous winners.
As usual, you will find some exciting statistics about Munchy’s most active members of the year at the very bottom of this post! If you wish to, you can of course use that information to help you pick who to vote for!
Instead of blanket banning some of our wonderful community members this year, I have created two bonus polls where they can make an appearance. In particular, in the MOTY of the Year poll previous MOTY winners have been nominated to shine some light on their development and achievements since they have been voted Munchy of the Year by you guys. Furthermore, the fun poll “Media Admin” gives the previously excluded BadBoyHalo, Antfrost, and Dream, a chance to appear in an edition of MOTY in their very own category.
Discloser: Due to some concerns in previous years, this year we will not publish your votes. Instead, you can vote in complete secrecy without being plagued by your conscience for voting against one of your friends. You are more than welcome to share who you voted for, but we will keep that information secret for you!
CrismisCrafty
@Craftifyer stands out as one of the most active members of the entire MunchyMC community in 2022. Not only is he arguably the most active contributor to the forums community, but he is also one of the few people that are influential across the board in all of our game modes.
paengi
As one of our most active builders, @paengi has already been nominated for MOTY in 2021 and has continued making invaluable contributions throughout the whole year. Most notably, she has built the gorgeous survival spawn for season 4 which you should check out right now if you haven’t yet.
skepiwi
I cannot deny that @skepiwi’s nomination is influenced by both personal and recency bias considering that I started personally working with him just a few weeks ago. However, he has picked up @DragonsMaker’s position as our survival 3D artist wonderfully so I would like to honour his relatively short span of contribution regardless. Here is to many more months of collaboration on pets and custom accessories!
Tarteris
While @Tarteris has recently been promoted to helper on survival, she still qualifies for the Community Member poll since this has been her role for most of the year. Tarteris is active on our survival and prison servers alike and is known mostly for her kindness and helpfulness towards other players on the server. On survival, she has been heavily involved in the community farm project, which aims to make starting out as easy as possible for new players.
TSUTT_
@TSUTT was probably the best overall looter in 2022 in maps 8 and 9, and has had a huge impact on the prison meta today. From the first day of map 9 TSUTT took the top of the looting leaderboards, and it took months for other to catch up to what he could accomplish in a few weeks. TSUTT over this past year has had a huge impact on prison and is one of the most notable prison players of all time.

Alkemystix
After securing a respectable third place in last year’s Staff of the Year poll, @Alkemystix is the only nominee in this category to reappear again this year. To put this accomplishment into perspective, only Callahan, Crypt, and BFI01 have managed to defend their Staff of the Year nomination so far. Alk has taken on more leadership responsibilities this year and has contributed significantly to the successful release of Survival’s fourth season.
DutchMTC
It is difficult to pick out one specific thing about @DutchMTC because she just does everything. She is involved in a lot of projects across the network and puts herself forward wherever she can help. Dutch is staff on most servers, a newsletter editor, co-manages the media team, and does so much more - a true MunchyMC allrounder!
EvillRat
While @EvillRat has resigned from the staff team at the end of November, he is still active on the server, in the bug and idea team, and most recently also in the media team. Rat is probably most commonly known for his incredibly helpful guides and infographics. Whether it is survival, prison, or woolwars, he probably wrote the standard resource that you use whenever looking something up.
liambgames
Even though @liambgames only became a helper in April, he is clearly amongst the most active prison staff members. Even before joining the staff team, liam has been hugely influential over his many years on the network. In fact, he is one of the only players - if not the only one - who has actively played every single one of our 9 prison maps. Thus, it should come as no surprise that he is one of the most well-known and respected players on the entire network.
Sript
Just like last year, @Sript has earned his MOTY nomination due to his outstanding activity and knowledge about the detection of cheaters and rule breakers. Despite being relatively new to the staff team he is arguably one of our most experienced mods.

Callahan
Our favourite reindeer boy still is and always has been the glue that keeps MunchyMC together. I feel like a broken record saying this time and time again, but without @Callahan nothing on Munchy would be running as smoothly as it is. Whenever something breaks, he is quick to save us all by fixing it, and he is involved with virtually every project on the entire network in some way or another. Even MOTY requires Callahan to function.
HELIXED
The WoolWars MOTY 2021 @HELIXED has continued climbing the ranks in 2022, being promoted to a Senior Mod position while manifesting himself as one of our most active moderators on WoolWars and KitPvP alike.
Ibby_
@Ibby won the original MOTY in the very year she first joined MunchyMC. 3 years later, she has just launched the second survival map under her management and planning. She has continuously received overwhelmingly positive feedback from fellow staff and the community alike for her leadership skills and management style. It is no surprise that under Ibby, survival has risen to be Munchy’s most successful gamemode of 2022.
Omarmu
@Omarmu has had one of the most dynamic histories here at Munchy. From working their way up to WoolWars Senior Mod and winning WoolWars MOTY in 2020 to resigning from staff to focus on streaming, and eventually returning to the staff team as the media team and event server manager. While Omar has also recently become very active in the prison community, most of their work happens largely outside of the focus of our active playerbase on the event server and on social media.
Twinkiewinkie
While @Twinkiewinkie only appears in the unofficial bonus poll this year, it marks her third consecutive Munchy of the Year nomination - a MOTY record. She already holds the record for the most MOTY wins (2) tied with @Atterax and has officially climbed to the very top of the Munchy Olymp. Twinkie is arguably one of the most liked staff members in the community, which her unique personality definitely contributes to.

For some very strange reason, a large number of former MunchyMC administrators have found their way to the world of Youtube and Twitch and have started very successful careers outside of MunchyMC. Out of these, @BadBoyHalo as our lovely server owner is the only one who has held on to his role here at Munchy while everyone else has mostly moved on. None of these guys require an introduction so let’s just go straight to the poll!
