I made the edit.
@Mr. Kite, we don’t do separate nominations. You just vote, and I tally them up.

Awesome, thank you! Last year, the votes trickled in, and it wasn’t overwhelming. But if that changes, I’ll let you know.

Haven’t changed it in a long time, but it’s pretty awesome.

Maybe the Best Rewrite/Poem category could be expended to included things like best covers and stuff like that. Or like Best Creative thingies maybe?

I had a bookmark folder for everyone I thought was a candidate, but since my computer’s dead and I’ve missed a ton of posts, I’ll probably leave that one blank.

Offline The only thing i would say (not as a mod) is that each category really should be open to include a wide variety of nominees otherwise you might as well just hand over the award and not bother voting. For example i’m pretty sure that ‘Best rewrite/poem’ was put in when meanmrsm (no relation), mr. sun king and a handful of others were doing them along with Zig, now i can think of only Zig and mr kite who have done any (apologies if i am wrong) and i would suggest the same applies for a cartoon award. I think this why @parlance is not that keen on the award for ‘Most informed on current Beatles news’ (again apologies if i’m wrong). So maybe the categories could do with a tidy-up – but probably not this year as its nearly December.

Mr. Kite, Starr Shine?, StrawberryFieldsForeverI say in speeches that a plausible mission of artists is to make people appreciate being alive at least a little bit. I am then asked if I know of any artists who pulled that off. I reply, 'The Beatles did'.

Offline That makes perfect sense @meanmistermustard. I wasn’t suggesting a cartoon award, I was backing up the creative work thing AD40 suggested. That would include covers, stories, along with things like the BB Cartoon. I was just saying that would be my vote.
I think the categories are just fine now. Although I would need clarification on the posts that make you go hmmm.
Edit: and rereading Anna’s suggestion, it seems she wants to broaden the best Rewrite to include many creative things. And that would make sense.

It’s up to you. I just took that from the song title, and I’ve enjoyed the way people have interpreted it.

Although my sig has never garnered any attention so that must be awesome.
