Okay Im going to extend this to about March 6. Im going ahead and nixing genre songs since that isn't gaining any interest and there are enough awards already. Also for best user again Im doing it for users who have been here at least five years, and the same will go for next year so eventually many regulars should become eligible. Also Ill try to PM the ballot to some forum regulars who may not venture down to the dark cave that is the games section.



Again here's the final ballot, vote for as much or as little as you want as long as it scrapes the minimum # of nominations (first number in paranthesees)
