That sucks that only a few sent in nominations.  Did you get at least end up with enough nominees to fill most categories?

Can't believe people didn't send in their nominations!  Now I'm beginning to panic and just hope I sent mine right :/

You did, Steph!

With the amount of people that post on the site and also tend to bitch about their stories not being read or life being unfair, you'd think there would have been more participation. It actually makes me so angry I want to spit! But alas, it is what it is and in the end, the people who were nominated should be thankful that someone cared enough to take the time to follow the rules, find the links and let us know!

I'm glad you were at least able to fill most of the categories.  But you're right; if the people who tend to complain AC having a "clique" who gets nominated and wins everything at these awards did not nominate their favorites, they have no business complaining anymore.

Well, actually, the main offenders when it comes to complaining did submit noms. I was genuinely surprised how many regulars to the site and forum opted not to.

Well that's good!  At least it wasn't just the same few people nominating.  That is surprising that more of the site regulars did not, though.

I'm shocked most of the regulars didn't.

Still can't wait to see the nominees though :).

I'm shocked that regulars on the site didn't nominate, it doesn't take that long and it's fun to decide who you're going to pick for each category.

Glad to know that even though only few people send in their nominations, they were enough to fill the categories. I just hope when it is time to vote, readers (regulars to the forum or not), will take time to vote.

You did too! Actually, I think Julilly might have meant the people on the site who post on the most recent page frequently. Almost all of the forum regulars did send in nominations. Only a very few people who don't post on the forum bothered to send in noms.
