Voting Time - Forum Awards 2022

#1

Post by Star »

Right, the exciting part of the awards, not as exciting as winning one of course, but the next best thing. WE VOTE!! Or rather, you all vote, as I stated before I will not vote unless there is a tie. If that happens, I will cast the deciding vote (well there has to be some perk to doing all of this ;) )

Below are the awards and the most popular nominations. The Special Awards you don't need to vote on, they are a separate thing altogether and are being sorted out ready to hand out at the awards ceremony.

Now, how you vote. Since I can't do a blind poll so that only I can see how it is all going, I'm going to have to ask you to vote by listing your preference for each category. You can only vote for one option per category and to help me keep the mystery of who is winning until the end, if you could copy and paste the options into a private message and vote that way I'd really appreciate it, or you can vote on this thread if you prefer. Private message voting keeps the result more of a surprise, which is much nicer in my opinion :cool:

As I say, you can only vote once, if anyone tries to vote more than once, I will only accept their first vote, sorry, so please be sure about your choices. If you are nominated and you want to vote for yourself, go ahead, that's fine by me.

Thanks again to all who joined in and nominated, each and every one of you are wonderful :bow: If you don't like the options here, and you did nominate, well I'm sorry. If you don't like them and you didn't nominate, all I can really say is, you only have yourselves to blame!

Oh and please don't use the @ symbol and tag the people you're voting for, I would like to try and keep the winners a surprise until the official announcement if that is at all possible.

9. Special Awards - As stated above, these are different, we don't vote on these, they just sort of happen ;)


Now, once you've all voted, those of you who were nominated need to do two things:

First, just in case you don't win, you need to work on that face. You know the one I mean, the one where the result is given and you haven't won but you are smiling and clapping for the person who did, even if you're seething inside :haha:

Second, I need you to work on your acceptance speech. It would be nice if the winners came onto the 'Winner Is' thread and thanked all those lovely people who nominated and voted for them along with anyone else they feel matters. Over the years I've read some wonderful and indeed hilarious accpetance speeches and I have high hopes for some more from the winners of these awards too.

So there you have it. If you're still reading at this point, thank you, I really appreciate it :bow:

Keep the votes coming, every one does count, no honestly, I'm not just saying it. Some of the categories are really close and unless you want me putting in the deciding vote, you need to get your votes in!!

Thanks to those who have already done so, I really do appreciate all you lovely folks getting involved :bow:
