Wow, I tied in two categories. Cool, thanks to those who voted, and as for voting, where the hell were the ballots? I didn't vote this year because I never saw it. Oh well.

It was a private ballot this year Cag. Looks like the thread with the ballot that you then inserted into a PM to Syl has been deleted.

There was a ballot thread, but I merged it with the other threads to clean up after it was all done. Sorry, man, but it was in A&S and everything.

I missed the voting announcement too, Cags. Which means ... we're both idiots.

Aww guys.
I even posted about Voting, with links, in my own forums and in GT!!
I have deleted the announcements in my own forums, but since there were replies in the GT one, that thread is still there.
Word was spread around, honestly it was.

Oh well, c'est la vie. I might have lost had I voted.

Congrats all and thanks to everyone who voted.

Awww, thanks to everyone who voted for me! And congrats to everyone else.

Though one little nitpick is I am "JazFusion", not the musical style.

FYI, I have finally (sorry for the delay) made items for all four Watchies that we have held so far (2005 to 2008). If you have won a Watchy in any of the previous four years, please buy an item in the store for that year. DO NOT buy an item if you didn't win an award (this is called the "honor system", boys and girls).

I have also made WotY award items for each of the four winners.

I don't particularly like the item images, so if anyone wants to make something better, feel free.

Any comments or problems, let me know. Thanks.

Thank you, sir.

Damn.

This year, 32 ballots for the Kevins Watch Awards were cast. No category garnered votes from every ballot, but several were in the 25 to 27 vote range. Not bad when the average daily number of users visiting the Watch is around 100 users.

Without further ado, here are your Watchy award winners for 2009:

Thank you, those of you who NOM-inated me for an award, which I consider an act of appreciation, and I am warmed by the appreciation.

Congratulations, all you Watchie Winners! See you at the After Party! Er... can someone tell me where it is?

And a
