2011 Watchy Ballot

Post by [Syl] »

OK, here's how this is going to work: Open a PM to the account Watchy Ballot Box. Write the number of the category. Next to the number, write the letter of the nominee you're voting for. Put each number on the next line down.

Please use all the numbers, even if you choose not to vote in that category, leaving it blank. Do not write anything but the number and letter. Sample ballot provided below.

When you are done, hit send. Post in this thread to say that you voted. Only then can your vote be counted. Menolly and I will independently count the votes and verify the results with each other.

Please do not post in this thread other than to say you've voted. Such posts will be deleted. If you want to talk about the ballot or whatever, please use the discussion thread. If you want to talk about the specific categories, please use the links provided below to talk about them in their corresponding threads.

"It is not the literal past that rules us, save, possibly, in a biological sense. It is images of the past. Each new historical era mirrors itself in the picture and active mythology of its past or of a past borrowed from other cultures. It tests its sense of identity, of regress or new achievement against that past.”

Voted... kind of. Not like I'm sure, but sitting on that ballot more wasn't likely to make it hatch something much better. However, I think that's a good sign it's so hard to vote)

the hyperbole is a beauty...for we are then allowed to say a little more than the truth...and language is more efficient when it goes beyond reality than when it stops short of it.

Voted. I think that's the first time I've ever had to have the Watch open in three tabs at once -- one for the pm, one for the ballot so I could get to the links, and one for nomination thread. Very well organized this year -- kudos to our Watchy mods! :)

(My ballot has been sitting in the Watchy Ballot Box mailbox, unread, for many a long day. Just in case that's bad.)

<<Syl edit: It's only bad in the sense that you did not follow the directions and post here when your ballot is in.

have you ever tried explaining yourself

i've had this with actors before, on the set,
where they get upset about the [size of my]
trailer, and i'm always like...take my trailer,
cause... i'm from Kentucky
and that's not what we brag about.
