These are
only the nominations.

These are not the actual final votes.

The nomination process will be open for about a week or so. We're gonna get as much input from you guys as possible, then compile it all for the voting.

If you get stuck on a category, don't sweat it. You can skip any of them you want. But do give it your best shot.

For the nominations that require a description, please make it brief. (There's a lot to sort through.)

Have fun!
