User-Voted Awards! (2011/2012 Forum Awards.), (Votes are being tallied!) Options

[X-M-O]

Hey everyone! We're (finally) releasing the 2011/2012 Forum Awards topic! =]

We will be giving out the following awards for the 2011/2012 year.
We want you to nominate and vote for anyone (staff or non-staff) you feel deserves one of the forum awards. ^^

Nominations do not count as votes. This is because you are allowed to nominate more than one person (up to five) for any of the 2011/2012 awards.
If you want to nominate and vote for the same person, then you'll need to do both in your post.

You may only vote once for each award. You are not required to supply a vote for every award.
You may vote for the same person or game more than once, but only for different awards (meaning that a person could be given a vote for Best Artist and Best Musician, but can't be given 2 votes for Best Artist).

You are allowed a single post. This is to keep things from becoming confusing (we have to count the votes, you know).
If you need to make changes to your post, then please use the edit button and make those edits as necessary.
If you have any questions, please send me a PM and I'll handle those questions via PM and update this topic, if necessary.

Once this topic is closed, you will not be allowed to change your vote.

These are nominations and votes. I didn't like the idea of nominating multiple titles and then having to vote one. Made me feel like I was saying "You and you and you are totally awesome! But.. I love you best! <3 sorry to the other losers.".
My list is quite small though. Sadly my activity in this forum and game creation as a whole has plummeted when I started my career at IBM. I'm hoping that my workload will decrease as we get more new hires so that I can give my game more than 1-3 hours of work every month.
