That absolutely killed my chances.

Don't worry, people here on this site love you more than they do love me, I guess. ;)

Heh... I'm confident that you'll carry a few Oscars yourself :thumbsup: ...

In the meanwhile, I've already sent my candidates. Good luck, everyone... and hope we have a lot more of nominations :toothygrin: !

My nominations have been sent! When does the voting begins? :D

A couple questions...

Are members supposed to nominate in every category? (I seldom read threads and have barely looked into electronic and band music here)...

When is the nomination process closing? (I think I'll take forever filling in the blanks ;) ).

Ohh... and where is YC's Best Couple :mad: ????

EDIT: I should absolutely have read the full opening post before my first question :blush: ...

I'd like to mention that we've had problems before when sending nominations without including link to the nominated piece/thread, and then we have to bee looking all over the site for something wasn't even named like that, so please include links to all nominated works and threads.

Eileen, my Godly powers destroyed that category as useless. hahahah

So nice to live in theocracy... (no) ¬¬

But funny^^

I definitely run a theocracy on my moderatorship. ;) hahaha. It's more fun that way, for me anyway.

I wish I was one of those cool kids who have witty, edgy things to say all the time, like "I was doing it before ____ was around" and "Yeah, I'm pretty much a god".

You work hard for 6 years and you too can be God.

He's already God for the law :P .

Dear Mr. God (the Panda one, not the other),

I joined YC just last August, and I seldomly take part on thread discussions, but have listened to a whole lot of pieces (even commenting on a few of them). Am I allowed to nominate works anyways?

Thanks!

I am still considering, what to do. I admit I haven't listened to jazz, electronic and pop music on this site yet, so I can only nominate what I have encountered so far. I have some selections made in orchestral, chamber, keyboard and vocal music though. Since I am so "one dimensional" at the moment, I am thinking of rather abstain from voting although I am also thinking it would not be fair of me not to do it, even if limited.

Wait, you dont have to nominate or to vote for all categories right??

Yeah, you guys, you don't have to vote for everything. It's just recommended.

Honestly I'd rather have your partial nominations that no nominations from you at all - but that's just my view.

If that's so, I will do my best with nominations in short time! :)

Since I received no answer, I decided to send nominations as well. You're free to throw them away at once.

Bear in mind that, since I am not really acquainted with almost anyone on this site, I left many of the member categories without nominee.

I got them.

A question...

Once you've submitted your nominations via PM, is it possible to change them :horrified: ?

Uh yeah. Make sure you post in the SAME thread you sent to me. So, I don't accidentally count twice.

Just sent my nominations. Incomplete, but I did my best. ;)
