Vraith, that is
old news and deserves to be retired. Yes, four years ago, our Gracious Concierge was a little enthusiastic in her approach to promoting the Watchies. Has not her approach since then been more...moderate?
Rau, right now, we are picking the categories we want to consider this year, beyond the few perennial categories she listed in the opening post. That way, we should not end up with categories that won't garner nominees. The will of the Watch varies from year to year...
Next, nominations will be open for the chosen categories. Noms will need to garner seconds to make it to the final Watchy ballot, if past years practice is any guide. Discussion of the nominations will probably be held in separate threads, as the nomination threads get cluttered if discussion happens there.
Once noms are closed, Menolly will put out a ballot and we will vote. Eventually, the winners will be announced and be entitled to add Watchy winner items such as you see at the left side of my post.
Maybe in a couple years, Jay will actually add the items to the Store so winners can buy and display them. Still waiting for last year's...
Love prevails.
