SWF is gearing up to hold its annual Forum Awards, honoring the best of Smash World Forums from the past year. As usual, voting will consist of a nomination round, followed by the final voting round. First, here are this year's categories:
I. Member Awards (16) (any registered member)

Most Improved - Person who has improved the most as a poster (from 2005-2006)

Sexiest Mod - ya... check this topic (http://smashboards.com/showthread.php?p=2084193#post2084193) for comparisons
Most Gregarious - The most sociable forum leader: this person is easy to talk to and is approachable; he/she is very people-oriented and deals well with people over AIM etc...
Most Omnipresent - The forum leader who always seems to be around and doing his/her jobIII. Room/Category Awards (3)
Favorite Hangout - Your favorite room to chill at SWF
Most Notorious for Spam - The room that's... full of spam
Favorite Category - the category that contains most of your favorite roomsIV. Special Awards (1)
Prestigious Award - Voted on by the Forum Leader crew, this person has been an excellent poster and helper at SWF. He/she is very dedicated and is constantly offering his/her services to better SWF. This person must be agreeable and has given up a lot of their spare time to help Smash World. Previous winners include McFox, Zootematix, Giygas, and Amorasaki.In the next day or two the nomination booth will open and you'll be able to submit your nominations for who you'd like to win each award. A couple weeks later, nominations will close, and the top three votegetters in each category (more if there are ties) will move on to the final voting round. We'll then open up the voting booth one more time, where you'll be able to vote for who of the nominees you want to win in each category.
Seems fairly simple, no? One more thing you should keep in mind: you can only nominate yourself for one award, so think carefully before you do it.
When nominations start I'll make a post here and give you the link to the voting page. In the meantime, think about who you might want to nominate for each award--some mods will be vying for your attention here (http://smashboards.com/showthread.php?p=2084193#post2084193), so perhaps you'd like to start there.
Happy voting!
