Coming soon...
More details to follow in the next couple of days.
Like last year, members can vote in a number of categories in three rounds of one week each, and win prizes provided by our sponsors. New this year will be a very special, real award for the winners of member categories (those categories where a deskthority member can win, such as "best wiki contributor"): a custom commissioned clickclack keycap. This is a unique design by clickclack especially made for the Awards, category winners will be the only people ever getting these keycaps.
This topic can be used for comments, ideas and suggestions before the event starts. If you have any ideas how to improve over the last edition, let us know!

Make it so the *ping* award can go to multiple winners.
Geekhack deserves one (actually, Geekhack deserves like three), Thermaltake deserves one for the Knucker, and Unicomp deserves one for the "tease new product, actually release a shipping coupon" stunt they just pulled.
