Eight people sent in ballots...

Now's the time to vote for stuff...

Voting ends March 31st...

==========


     The RACCIES are a two-step process:

      1.  Nominations.  Closed.

          In addition to the below listed categories,
     participants are encouraged to create 'special' (read --
     comedic) awards to include in the balloting.  Include a
     winner with your award.  I will exert editorial fiat over
     these nominations, choosing the funniest among duplicates
     and dismissing ones in bad taste or ones with vicious intent.
          Nominations are RACC-wide: all posted imprints, stories
     and authors are eligible as long as the story(ies) in
     question were posted from 01 JAN 2007 through to 31 Dec 2007.


          Nomination Period ends: JAN 31 2008

      2.  Elections.  Crunch time.  Pick three and rank them 1,2,3
     (no self-voting).  Track and field scoring in effect -- ie 1st is
     5pts, 2nd is 3pts and 3rd is 1pt.  Most points wins. Democracy
     in action!


          Election Period ends: MAR 31 2008


      NOTE:  Please return all nominations and ballots to the preferred
      email address of:
