So I hear some people want to know the results; well, you're getting them two ways.
First though, as always, I'd like to thank everybody involved with both this and the Character Tournament. Toraish in particularly for organizing things this year. Special thanks to Sai-Chan also. There's a lot of work behind the scenes on the forum events but it's always fun because of the efforts on both sides. This year was particularly interesting for both; voting was down for both (though only slightly for the Awards) but we had a ton of close contests in both and some really interesting upsets along the way. I had to break six ties after all the ballots were counted this year and I don't think I've seen that happen before in all the times I've done this. That's probably as many votes as I've cast in a couple of these combined. Quite a few of these Awards were decided by one ballot or less and there weren't really many runaways like there usually are. Certainly not in the Member Awards, which were pretty competitive throughout.
So, anyway, the winners.
But first:
Because, really, what's an awards show without Neil Patrick Harris?
Drum roll please:
Close enough.
