Important Things to Note
* Please Send all votes, nominations and questions to CM's PM box
* Nominations for the original, established categories are closed. You may, at this point, only submit nominations for the new categories.
* When sending in your votes/nominations, please just provide relevant
information, wading through some of the extraneous comments while compiling the above made the process more lengthy than it needed to be
* A special pox on those of you who nominated people for best location and signature, but did not actually quote said lines
* When casting your nominations for the new categories, please be specific. As I indicated above, having to search for a particular member's location or signature was tedious
* I have not included any nominations where the said person received the same award last year. So, if you don't see your nominee listed, please check last year's awards before crying "foul"
* A number of you voted for Fable in the Lifetime Achievement category. I did not include his name in the list of nominees owing to the above-stated rule. However, if there is an overwhelming consensus towards relaxing voting limitations in this particular category, I will edit accordingly.
* Finally, this took quite a long time, and there was a lot to sort through. Such being the case, it is quite possible I made errors or accidentally omitted some of the nominees. If this has occurred, please let me know, and I'll do my best to fix it.
