Welcome to the Orange Mane Red Carpet Gala Awards Forum, where we will select the outstanding threads and performances of the past year.

Except for the "Hall of Fame" categories, discussed below, the awards will be presented for efforts & achievements that occurred between June 1, 2005, and June 1, 2006.

Awards will be as follows:

Four Individual Poster Awards for overall excellent performance through the year.

EGIBGB Honorary Award
Avatar & Sig Award (Consider this our Special Effects award)

10 Performance Awards for outstanding efforts in a particular thread.

Lifetime Awards for posters

This is the Orange Mane Hall of Fame. (This year, we will induct four charter members, with an intention of adding two or three persons per year after that.)

Best Threads

Best Preseason Thread
Best Regular Season Thread
Best Postseason Thread
Best Offseason Thread
Best Non-NFL Sports Thread
Best Totally Off-Topic Thread

-------------------------------------

Nominations will open today, and will continue through July 15, 2006.

There are two ways in which you can nominate someone (or some thread) as the case may be.

(1) Below this thread, in this forum, will be individual threads for each of the categories. You can post your nomination in the appropriate category.

(2) Or, if you want to remain anonymous, you can PM me with your nominations.

You can also "second" and "third" and "fourth" nominations, etc. In fact, this would be a good idea to insure that your nominated people reach the "finals."
If some category gets a zillion "tied" nominations, I will trim it down as fairly as possible - - taking into account people nominated multiple times, general variety, and so forth. But this particular part will be a matter of my unfettered discretion.

After the nominations are closed, I will create polls in this forum with the top nominations in each category for people to cast their votes for the winners. (The identities of the persons voting will not be disclosed.)

Subsequently, we will tally the votes and announce the winners!

Edited for proper dates...
