A Word About Voting...

The first thing that is very important is that you should read the category description. The wording of the category is often very important and some categories are more than their simple title suggests.
For example, Best Creator should not be chosen on the merit of one video but based on all the videos a person has made during the year. This description can be vital to those choosing who to nominate. The best video may or may not be by the best creator and vice versa. This is important in many categories, so read them well.
There are two stages of voting: Nominating the top 5 in a category then voting for the best out of those 5. It is recommended that you nominate all the videos that you think are worthy of being in that category. Again, think of whether the video really fits the category descripton and is good in that category
When it comes to the finals, please try and watch all of the videos in a category before making a judgement. Think about the category and what video is best for that category, not which is the better video in general.
If you dont think you can vote fairly in a category then don't vote in it.
Most of all, remember that the results aren't the end of the world or the most important thing ever. It's all just a bit of fun, so enjoy watching the videos and voting for your faves.
