The Silver Yo-Yo Awards

The Silver Yo-Yo Awards were presented by the fanzine

 A Companion in Zeor

for heroic actions performed on behalf of the zine.
They were awarded on a per-issue basis. Some issues had multiple Yo-Yo Award recipients, while others
(presumably the ones where production went especially smoothly) had none.

As the course and presentation of Sime~Gen refines itself in this multimedia world, the Silver Yo-You is also awarded for exemplary services rendered in course of publishing A Companion in Zeor in an on-line format.
2002
Mary Lou Mendum, for her lost, and found again book.
