The last day nominations will be accepted is Sunday, March 1st (EXTENDED TO SUNDAY, MARCH 8th), which gives everyone 10 full days to get everything into us. The top three nominees for each category will then be put up for vote for an additional 10 days and then the winners will be announced.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them here. Good luck, everyone!
