Just because I'm on a sabbatical from handling doesn't mean that the Squaretablammies won't go on this year! So, here they are!

I've added a couple categories from last year's ballot:
- Gotcha Moment of the Year
- Feud of the Year

As well, I shuffled around the categories so that they flow a bit better - the first section is the character-centric categories, the second section are the federation-centric categories, and then finally the Top Acts.

All ballots should be in to me by January 16th, 2012 so I can have the results posted up on JTF Squaretable that Monday. Send all ballots to mrhoneydew@gmail.com. Fedheads, feel free to disseminate this to your fed for voting!

So get those votes in!

Since Jeremy posted a card, WANA is eligible for discussion! :banana:

Too early of a posting? People waiting out on any last cards? No one interested in this year's end awards? Question mark(?)

Fighting Spirit had a card out...it's eligible!

Probably came just a tad too early... but this is an excellent time to be reminding people. :) And I've got a ballot sitting in my E-W folder that I've been slowly but surely filling out as I've been reading up on some of the places I was less familiar with.

I do admit, only being around for 2011 means I'm not at all familiar with 98% of what happened and who was around in 2010... anyone got input on some of their favorite characters who actually qualify as "rookies" this year?

We should start Year Ends shilling threads where folks can pimp the characters, matches, promotions, shows etc. that they want to. Maybe after Christmas.

Yes, and you should all vote for it in every category, even categories for which it makes no sense! Fighting Spirit for Maneuver of the Year!

I'd never vote for a year end award until the year actually ended.

Ten ballots in so far - need more! Thirty more? Twenty? I'll settle for fifteen! You have two weeks, so get them in!

Less than a week left - the turn out's been a little better since the 3rd, but more ballots would be appreciated... Please?

One last begging effort - get your ballots in by... 8PM EST? Yeah, 8PM tomorrow the 16th...

FINE! I guess I'll vote. dangit...

[Kicks stuff.]

Awards will be out... either after 6PM EST or after 8PM on the 17th [I have a Jeopardy! online test to fail miserably first]. So if you have a last minute ballot you forgot to send or never did but always wanted to... well, you have some more hours!
