Yes, but you support Newcastle, and are therefore worthless.

Like they have in previous years, probably. Eventually, when the final award list is complete, JK will ask everyone to start PMing them their votes. He may decide to run the results from these, or he might run a second rally for votes with the top five finalists in each category only.

I could insult you but I won't stoop so low. I want to be nominated for nicest forumite too.

Presumably people can nominate up to five people in each category, then the top five votes will go to a second round where everyone votes for their favourite.

This sounds good to me.

Yeahh. Best way I see it is to suggest nominees, then make a new poll for each category from there?

And will there be any specific criteria for each category to be considered as a nominee?

E.g. a minimum number of suggestions from other forumites? will best/worst meme need to have had existed for a certain length of time? along those lines, best newcomer a "join-date" rule?

Just throwing out some ideas to be considered.

As long as the join up date is the date i joined, i'm fine with that

Not polls. They're exploitable.

Once the short list has been determined (from initial votes) everyone should PM JK with their final votes. One vote per category this time. Or something like that.

This is basically what I said.

Good work me and Goat!

That's a good idea but I think we should all PM our votes to JK because polls are exploitable.

To clear up nomination proceedings...

I'll be asking for a number of nominations for each category (three to five, I have yet to decide) from each person to be PM'd to me. I'll then count them up and produce a final shortlist of nominees for each award, at which point I'll ask for people to vote again (via PM) who they think should win.

Although we won't be doing nominations until later this week or early next week, have a think about who you might like to nominate, and which forum events you've enjoyed the most.

So, basically what I said.
