I nominate @uuazed - numerapi GOAT and active elder

I nominate @ia_ai - the meetup champion, without him it would be quiet here

I nominate @lingster - relatively new but has already done more for the community than possible

I nominate @shatteredX - the Grandmaster who cares

In addition to the current CoE cohort, I nominate the following:

  • lingster: Active development for/in the community. Numeroo is a standout.
  • ShatteredX: Top participant, and top NMR staker. Good for NMR and tournament incentive alignment.

I gratefully accept my nomination.

At the same time, I would like to nominate Tim @jefferythewind for his deep expertise in Numerai (truly the best Numerai intern ever), his ability to turn research into a high‑performance ML tool (WrapGBM), and his unwavering love for Dekavita.

Thanks @correlator for continuing to trust in the current CoE and I accept your nomination. I will continue to try and grow Numerai and the Councils social media presence now and far into the future!

Last election, I nominated people based on their great past contributions. This election, I nominate some of the smartest people I’ve met, had fruitful discussions with, or even had a chance to collaborate with since the last election: ninesigma, sota, jrAI.

We need more people who are good at Numerai to represent Numerai.

Thanks @correlator, I’m grateful for the opportunity to serve and I accept my nomination. I’ll continue to share my code, ML insights (or the lack thereof :face_with_tongue:) and hot takes with our tree bros and the numerai community at large.

Thanks for the nomination, but I’m going to step off the CoE this round.

After almost 5 years, it feels like the right time for me to step aside and make room for some new members.

I’m really grateful for the chance to serve and for everyone I’ve worked with here. I’ve tried to contribute through guides, Signals posts, numereval, sharing my Transformer research and just being around the community, and I’m not going anywhere. I’ll still be contributing, just not as an elder.

Thanks again <3 :heart_hands:

I gratefully accept my nomination.

I’m a senior/lead data scientist, currently working for a NY-based fintech startup.
I’ve been actively participating in Numerai for the last few years, scoring #2 in the Signals Season 2024 Leaderboard.

I nominate @numerologist - the person who introduced me to Numerai, has been #1 on the leaderboard multiple times, and consistently gives back to the community.

Last-minute nominations: I’d like to nominate four Numeratis from our Japan fam – @katsu1110, @nishimoto, @kei_sanada, @regonn and @ageonsen.

They’ve been incredibly supportive with the events in Tokyo; honestly, these meetups wouldn’t have been possible without their help.

Sorry for my late coming here. I proudly accept the nomination from @ia_ai Jo Fai! What is up fam?!

I will try my best (as always) to promote understanding of crowd-sourced intelligence, quant finance, ML, and peace.

I would also like to (re-)nominate @ia_ai Jo, Wolfgang @uuazed and JRB @jrb for their continued enthusiasm for the cause, and great contributions so far. And can I also sneak in another nomination for @murkyautomata for his deep understanding of the gradient flows and speed-computing.
