Yeah! We beat out Megatokyo! Take that, Megatokyo!

Just kidding. XD

*hides from the wrath of Fred Gallagher fans* o.o;;

All joking aside, that's pretty cool. We even beat out animemusicvideos.org, which is pretty impressive, I think.

Woah! That is cool! Hopefully we'll be in the top-five in the near future. Or at least the top-ten.

This honour however might mean an onslaught of trolls in the near future (bleak me, I know) but surely we can beat them easily. :)

That's pretty awesome... yet I wonder if that had anything to do with the recent troll barrage.

Still... pwned Toykopop... that's something.

Hey I didn't know CAA was so well-known. And here I was thinking we're all in a corner of the Internet. :)

*breaks open a bottle of e-champagne*

That is wonderful. In the year and a half that I have been here I have really enjoyed the great company and the professional-quality work of all the moderators. You guys deserve this great regognition. Congratulations Ashley, and the rest of the staff for taking this site to the place it is today.

Oh, and congrats MelMak, for getting 25th!

Huzzah! I agree with Scribs that this honor is truly to the staff of CAA for their hard work. Well done indeed.

I'm impressed by some of the sites we beat in the rankings. It's a shame they only mentioned the reviews in the blurb though. They are very important, but there's so much more here as well.

Yeah, however everything I have seen concerning CAA on the internet seems to be focused on the reviews section.

Anyways, congrats CAA. It's very awesome to see this. I must say that this site has grown and accomplished alot over the years.

Perhaps as long as there are organizations like ours, anime will never have to endure the same torture as Harry Potter.

This is awesome! Especially considering all of the crap CAA got after the "Something-Awful" incident... But now I wonder if that helped, somehow...

Dude awesome! lol its no suprise to see that ANN and animenfo are there at the top too. I'm very suprised that CAA is on there. Go you Ashley =p

I also noticed that anime angels made it on the list too! sweetness

*tears up and voice seems to crack*

That's..so..AWESOME!!! *sobs* (happy)

WOW!! this is so amazing!!!! EXCELLENT!!!!!

I gotta say that even though I have only been here approximately ten months... I have had a blast!

All the mods do an awesome job here and the friendliness from all the members is amazing! I have been in other forums where the conversations just get down right nasty..

*hugs all the CAA members and Moderaters*

thanks for a great experience!!! ^_^

Just wanted to echo the congrats to the staff. You guys and gals to a sweet job.

Thanks everyone for the excitement and well-wishing. We're excited about this, too. Even if it does bring more trolls (we can take 'em!), even if all they know us for is our reviews (we do have a really awesome system in place), our name is still getting out there, and that means that God can be reaching out to lives that would have never been impacted without us. We're doing the kingdom's work, and I think God will be faithful to reward us for our efforts. But for the record, I'm suprised too that we beat out animemusicvideos.org and minitokyo.

Wow, I thought that Anime Fringe was shutting down, or else I would have been looking for this again this year. We placed again this year, which is great. We should have had a voting campaign again! :sweat:

But yeah, it's the same blurb as last year's. A little unrepresentative, but that's A-okay!

Yay for CAA! Woohoo! :thumb:

EDIT

Um... Well, I did some digging, and this is actually last year's results that we're talking about.

The results were released in January 2005, and the list was named best sites for 2005, but the voting took place in 2004. Anime Fringe is shutting down (their current issue is supposed to be their last).

So this comes a year late, but once again, congratulations to CAA for placing so high.

Here's the link to the voting campaign I mentioned above. I remember it cause I started it... http://www.christiananime.net/showthread.php?t=13723

And here's the link to the January 2005 issue of AF. Look for the top sites link at the bottom, and you'll realize it's from January. http://www.animefringe.com/magazine/2005/01/

Sorry to burst the bubble, though.

Ooh, you are right rogie-san.

Well If we were up there last year, I wonder how we would have placed this year.

I'm suprised too that we beat out animemusicvideos.org and minitokyo.

Was that intentional? ;)
