I actually agree 100% with Miriel, which is freaky since I knew exactly what I was going to write in this post, then I read through the posts and Miriel totally nailed it.
Either way, apart from the things Miriel mentioned, I think the ciddies are nice. 50 Ciddies is an OK number of ciddies. Nice work this year, champ.

You let the rest of us worry about that kind of thing.
And for heaven's sake please use these MLTs. The MLTs are too repetitive and the Ciddies feel stale after seeing the same awards after five or so years. Refreshing the Duo Awards isn't enough.
I think (as if my opinion matters) that FYC is an excellent idea. Also, awards for specific areas is good, like maybe best riddler in FF threads, which could possibly be self contained. Maybe more IRC based awards would be good too.
The last words of Oscar Wilde, to the wallpaper in his room - "One of us has to go"
The only MLT's that are repeated are the following:
MLT Become a Cid's Knight
MLT Get Banned
MLT Win a Ciddie for the very first time
MLT Get hig by a bus
MLT Be driving the bus
MLT Get Together
All the others change every time. I can't see any of those being dropped, maybe MLT Win a Ciddie for the very first time, but that's a nice award to have around, I feel. All the other nine change each time, though.
Bow before the mighty Javoo!
I think we may be ready to scrap the bus awards?
I say we can scrap the bus awards. Seems to me like the last two that are determined by the preliminary rounds are sometimes so closey related to the bus ones, that the nominees might as well be the same.
Yeah, the bus awards are old. Just my opinion though!
Nah. They've been around longer than Best Member has!
The only ones that have been around every time are...
Best Administrator
Best Cid's Knight
Best Newbie
Nicest Member
Evilest Member
Best Custom Rank
And the following have only ever missed one set of awards...

MLT Get Hit By a Bus
I'd probably sooner add two more MLT's and have 52 Ciddies.
EDIT: Or scrap the duo awards.
Bow before the mighty Javoo!
I don't like the bus ones, because people getting hit by busses is really serious thing 'cause they could die!
I've been run over before, it's not so bad.
Bow before the mighty Javoo!
More <s>porn</s> cowbell.
we need a Christopher Walken set of ciddies, like MLT marry a bobcat or MLT watch centaur porn.
Fewer*
Elimination of distinctions like 'best member/veteran/newbie' and just a 'best member' ciddie. Keep the staff one though.
Put Old Manus, Meat Puppet, and Jaffar in charge.
Jaffar doesn't even post anymore.
people should be able to voluntarily retire from a specific ciddie if they win in a bunch of times in a row.
So, which number 1) for picking individuals to do big speeches.
I know we had talked about this and you said you reserved the right for Best Member etc. However, in all honesty, I think it should be alternated.
Further, I don't think a nominee/finalist in the award should be able to give the speech.
