The last recipient was in June 1914. Sorry 2014, it just seemed that long ago. As it is still featured in the re-vamped (more retro-vampires) site, is this accolade still available? Should I ask NAL or am I 'pissing in the wind' as goes the popular phrase?

I should hope there will be no pissing anywhere into the wind or otherwise, this flooring is brand new!
WoM will indeed be beginning again in February, and I'll announce it all officially with updated rules and a few other bits and bobs in a post later on when it's not nearly 3 o' clock in the morning. Thank you all for being patient with me.

This is like when Bobby Ewing stepped out of the shower. And said he'd do Writer of the Month.

I'm a bit nervous.
If there was just one admin lady, presumably you would just be called Admin Lady.
Therefore, I deduce that there are Admin Ladies, plural.
Now, it follows that a distinguishing qualifier be inserted to clarify who is who. If there was a significant height discrepancy, it might be Tall Admin Lady and Short Admin Lady, for instance. On hearing that there is a 'Tall Admin Lady', you can reasonably assume that her colleague is significantly shorter.
You've chosen 'Nice' as your identifier.
Just what kind of badass motherfucker of an Admin Lady do you share an office with? 'Vicious Admin Grudgebitch'?

There's a TechGirl as well.

I'd like to add a woo hoo. Plus plenty of time to speculate on the 'updated rules' - makes you wonder if the donate button increases your chances, or are we going to have to start writing funny stuff?
Seriously, this is what a lot of subbers have been missing. Sure it will be the same old fit up, giving the mug (or whatever is the prize, maybe the recent frisson over virtual i.e. free prizes has struck a chord) to the same old undeserving few who just happen to write really funny subs, but it's great to see that it's coming back.

I'm going to complain to the Comedy Academy about under-representation of unfunny contributors in the WoM list.

Agreed, but maybe the qualifier relates to her geographical origin rather than her temperament / disposition. The other one might, for instance, be Scunthorpe Admin Lady. There could be more - possibly even Machynlleth Admin Lady.
Or as this is NewsBiscuit, maybe the other(s) is/are Ginger Admin Lady, Chocolate Admin Lady and/or Rich Tea Admin Lady.
