Ciddies XXIII: Nominations closed - check back soon!

[Queen Award, First of Her Name]

Super happy, Choco Boy. Thanks!

Oh right, I missed that, thanks

[Heath]

I have done my civic duty and nominated! I always find nominating difficult because there's so many good choices (even with multiple nominations!).

[Citizen Bleys]

BoB's trying to get me to nominate based on the fact that I've been nominated, but given that the last award I won anywhere was most likely to smurf a dead octopus...

[Queen Award, First of Her Name]

Really enjoying how varied the nominations are so far. With the nominations coming in now, I think we'll be well on schedule on Saturday. Keep them coming, people - still a few awards that need more finalists.

[FFIX Choco Boy]

You know, you could always nominate me. I think I would be alright with any of the categories this year.

[Queen Award, First of Her Name]

Those nominations are practically jumping into my spreadsheet! 28 members have now submitted 1,299 nominations and it looks to be increasing steadily.

Random facts
- The most nominations received for a particular member for any single award so far is 13.
- 29 different members have been nominated so far for Best Veteran.
- Best Newbie, Best Artist and Best Blogger/Article Writer all have seven members nominated so far (which could lead to all seven being finalists, even if they only have a single nomination - although this would be unusual), and Cutest Couple currently has seven different couples nominated.

good christ, you have a spreadsheet. Of course you do.

[Bolivar]

I want to fill this out, but I just feel like it would be too hard to do without nominating the same six members I regularly communicate with after a time

good christ, you have a spreadsheet. Of course you do.

It makes everything so much easier! I did the first Ciddies with math paper and pencil. It was... difficult. People changing votes and whatnot. Argh! But yeah, see the attached for examples of my spreadsheet (June 2010 Ciddies), some images zoomed out considerably to avoid showing people who voted for what...

Image 1: Who nominated, who voted, and the various posts I had to post during the final event, speeches and who did the speeches.
Image 2: Prediction Party calculator to show off who predicts correctly and who wins the "if it was a betting game" money.
Image 3: Votes - entering a name into a cell turns it blue, so it's easy to know who voted and still easily see who is in the lead.
Image 4: Predictions... same as votes, but the first nomination doesn't cause the cell to go blue. Helps to know who has been nominated twice as it means they will have a blue cell listed to their name once they get the second nom.

Huzzah!

[Shorty]

I'm not even going to try to understand that nonsense.

[Queen Award, First of Her Name]

Edited my last post with an explanation of what each image is.

[Jiro]

Oh god I really want to see that raw data

[Queen Award, First of Her Name]

It's also handy for telling people who they nominated/voted for in previous awards, should they want to remember. Although I have backups on BoB's PC of every PM I ever got, too, including backups from my fellow Ciddies hosts.

You don't need to have a complete set of nominations
