"So getting nominated is done by submiting your own sites/personality or others sites/personalities, and then they are nominated, herafter the judging begins, which is done by judges who also submited their info?
If that is the case, then what is so speacial about being nominated"
any Judges who are nominated in certain categories, can NOT vote in that category! Just to keep it fair. I am a judge, and I have not submitted any of my sites for the awards, just to keep it perfectly fair
