In continuation of quarterly rewards for the best answer and parallel to our favorite questions/answers poll, I'd ask the community again for the best answers from the past quarter to get an additional reward:

Please link to an answer which was created from April 1st 2017 through June 30th 2017 and which you think deserves an additional reward. Only one entry per answer will be valid. For multiple favorites submit separate answers to this post.

Here is a data query to help with the decision making process:

Otherwise you can chose your own favorite answer which didn't get the limelight or needed more appreciation. Answer can be from you or from anyone else.

The highest voted answer of this meta post will be picked up for the reward of 300 points after completion of the event on 30th July 2017.

Note: Answer must have 1+ upvote and submitted in the same quarter only.

Results:-

Winner - Thunderforge
1st Runner-up - Flater
2nd Runner-up - A J

Happy answering and thanks for making it successful again and expecting more participation from next time onward. Feel free to provide suggestion for future.

  • IMHO it missed a very important point, so much so that I felt compelled to make another answer. Still, a well written answer, just ... err... a bit lacking. You could say it was just me, but it looks like at least 7 other people felt the same (if not for the same reason).

    Of the candidates, this is the only one I'd actually already upvoted. I'm not sure I'd hold it up as a shining example of a great answer, but it was at least correct, and better than the other answers to the question.
