Welcome to Gaia! ::

It's time to begin and send this year out with our annual Best in The Business Awards! I've complied the nominations and put them into the ballot below. Send me, Punkology, a PRIVATE MESSAGE with your ballot. Simply remove all the other nominations and leave yours. Please do not put anything that is not on the ballot, as you've had all year to nominate things.

Any ballots posted in this thread will be ignored.

If you have issue with something that was nominated, the best way to deal with it is not to vote for it.

After December 15th, I will take in the current ballots and condense the nominations accordingly. Due to the volume of nominations, we will have to hold a few rounds for this one. Unless there is a unanimous winner to a category, we will have various rounds to bring the category down to a majority. Vote with your heart and have fun!

Does more belong on this list? Definitely. But, I'm only adding what was nominated in the thread. Sorry folks, that's how it is. PM your votes to me and they will be tallied up!

Alrighty, so how I'm doing it this year is basing the majority on the votes I received . We came in at a lucky number of...

7 ballots!

So, if a category had a winner by 3 votes, it has secured its spot as the winner. However, I won't list them until voting is completely over. The rest of the categories have been condensed down to its top 2-3 contenders, depending on the votes. Sooooo, here we go!

Also, if you voted on Round 1 but neglect to vote this time around, your votes will be kept in place. So if you're comfortable with your ballot, feel free to skip Round 2. If you wish to revote though, feel free! NOTE: Only your redone votes for the open categories will count.

Its in the fine print. Nothing from EWA was up for an award. Keyword here is "from". Never said the guild itself couldn't be nominated. wink

Just relaying what Shanahan said, senpai.

Oh I'm not upset; I'm giggling with glee!
