We have closed open nominations and are currently in the process of making the official nominee poll. Official award voting will open on December 15th. Thanks to all who sent in nominees! Further information will be given here when new updates are available.
I guess it's helpful to have the poll though because we have a lot of ties in nominees sometimes.
I'd like to see and try just taking nominations from everyone one year and whoever has the most wins the final award ... that way it isn't such a favoritism last choice out of a list. And it might be more widely spread out.
