Award Show Results

Here are the results from of the Second Semi-Annual WOWAY Awards. We highly recommend that you watch the awards show (links above) before you view the results.

Despite some technical problems at the start, the show went over really well, even if it ran a little long. But, hey, this is the first time we tried something like this, so we were bound to run into some unexpected problems, but everyone worked hard and quicky and together to work through it. I'm proud of everyone's dedication! :Y The chat room was packed, the most people I ever remember seeing in there at one time, and a fun time was had by all. :D

Congratulations to all winners!! :whoot: I will be contacting you shortly with your trophies.

It's voting time!!!


Get out your decoder rings and punch in these top secret coordinates....or just go to this website:

Two things:


Just to let you know, you can only vote once. 

*and*


During the last awards, there was a fuss about voting for yourself.  Well, I'm not passing a rule (Not like I could enforce it anyway, because if we throw out the votes for people who voted for themselves, that would be a pretty darn boring award show), but I will say this:

Remember these immortal words: "It's nice to be nice"    :D

And barring any unforseen circumstances, the awards will be held a week later Friday April 15th.      :D
