For this time, the newer blogs might be just for exposure but we are intending to have a “Sundance” version of the anime blog awards in the future. That will be slightly more indie. ^^

@ lolikit: Will do. I haven’t thought about the other…what, 8? nominations I have to put up. I don’t even read nine blogs on a regular basis.

@ Calawain: Categories are too restrictive, I would have liked to see some more obscure, almost joke like ones.

Hina is loev.

@ kenshin514: I actually was going to post on Hina’s birthday, just like I did for Maria’s. But I think I had a midterm or something that day and didn’t have the energy to type when I got home.

@ PCGamer: Nominations are strictly bloggers only, maybe the voting will be open to the public, who knows. I doubt it though, since this seems to be an event held internally between bloggers.

@ Servbot: I think way back when I still read AoMM, now Derailed by Darry, Jason mentioned he had a degree in electrical engineering, so he trumps me on that.

Guilty as charged on the comment thing I guess, I love getting replying to comments.

I bet no one could even wager a guess as to where my alias originates from.

@ Espydon: Aww, I wouldn’t rule yourself out completely. Though, despite what’s being said, I doubt you’re going to see awards handed out to the “little guys” or the rookies, it’s going to be the big name blogs that walk away winners.

@ TheBigN: If the nominee list and such gets out there, I’m sure a few of the lesser known blogs will get an opportunity to spread.

PCgamer: Only anime bloggers can vote here, to keep it in the community, so to speak.

I just hope that the awards will at least be able to get out blogs that people don’t know about beforehand, to help expand the community in some way. :P

Interesting. Even though I signed-up, I’m gonna rule myself out as a potential candidate for anything though, simply because. ><

The price to pay for being such populars.

Best Maths background *check*
Inhuman achievement for comment response speed/length *check*
Best active Poll containing Raigomaru *check*
Best male blogger name in an anime blogging lead role ending with two “i”s. *check*

Shirukii said “Hinagiku starts us off, just because I never get a chance to post her otherwise.” What are you talking about dude. You could have post/blog about her birthday 2 weeks ago (March 3rd to be exact), but you didn’t T_T. How can you forget that !! Now I’m not gonna vote for you. LOL. Just kidding dude. I’ll definitely vote for your blog for sure XD

I was disappointed there was not a category for “Sexiest Anime Blogger” because I’d be a shoe-in.

And I approve of any and all Hina pics in entries completely unrelated to HnG.

Nominate notdotq for either Funniest or Most Influential. Don’t worry, it’ll actually be a blog again before the nomination process is over.

Also, I think because I’m Owen’s “Kamina” or some shit and he’s the leader of the ABC, I’m the only reason why anime bloggers have community.

Or something egotistical like that.
