We're going to be using a very efficient form for nominations rather than posting to the board. Give us a few more days to have it finished off, then we'll open up the nominations. Thanks!

Hurray for voting! I ADORE the new system; it's so easy to use!

I had the same problem......

I did PM jacky and let her know that I was having an issue nominating.

Perhaps the nomination process should be stopped until the glitch is fixed, because of the nomination that would originally meant for one person, that is now going to another due to being unable to vote appropriately. I think out of fairness, that the noms should be closed and then reopened with a clean slate.

Okay Belena, thanks for the information. I really wanted to vote for that particular author but was unable to. Why is that because the story is still on going?

I agree with Ness because I do believe that it is the same individual that we are both trying to vote for.
