Hello, lovely people of Althanas!

While it may be hard to believe that another year has passed, it is already time again for our yearly award ceremony. The Althy Awards are an opportunity to celebrate the many accomplishments made by our members during 2015.

Below, you will find the categories. The first step will be naming members for these awards, which you can do in the Nominations thread. After a week, nominations will be closed. The top three nominees (as in the three players with the most nominations) will be eligible for the award. If there is a tie, that member will also be added to the poll. Afterward, each category will be assigned its own unique poll, where members will be able to cast their final vote for one week. Everyone can vote, but only once! Anyone caught voting on multiple accounts will get in big trouble. Trust me, I'm a teacher.

Winners will receive 500 GP and an Althy Award Badge. It is possible to win multiple Althies!
