Hello, dearest Party Planners! <3

As you may know, the Stars of the Cauldron Awards is very important for this site when it comes to the Anniversary event! I'm currently setting up the voting form and you may have already read in this thread, that we won't have a nomination-phase this year. We will directly start with the voting-phase!

All the past winners for each corresponding category will be listed and hence can be voted for . I plan on making the form public this Saturday! (July 13th). The voting-phase will last 10 days (till July 23rd) and I would like the award announcements to be made between July 25th - August 8th.

So with that being said, I will need your help <3 If you are interested in signing up for a certain category to announce, please reply to this thread by the end of July 17th! Every help is highly appreciated <3

I have added the awards folder so you guys can already start with your announcements . Queenie was unable to make them this year, so I gladly created them <33

I can help! I don't have anything specific in mind, so I can take 2-3.

Our last year of doing this. ;n; Hopefully we could do something similar on discord?

Count me in for this one!

Just a little award style thing celebrating one year on discord, or something of that nature. It's still too soon to be thinking that far ahead, though-at least, that's what I think. We have to get everything settled beforehand. 

And I'd like to take signature artist, best club, and best new member, please!

That sounds quite nice actually! I will certainly keep this idea in mind for next year :3 <333

if you don't mind me asking, why are only the past winners being nominated, rather than all past nominees? 

Also I'll host the most likely to lurk, most friendly member, and most inspirational, if that's OK!

The admin team decided it to be only the winners of each corresponding category, so it has some 'special spark' to it, since this is the very last anniversary celebration <33

Of course! Thank you, Malour <33

I'll join for best username and welcomer awards!

Question! What is the deadline for the threads (and subsequently, what happens if we're unable to complete them in time) ?

EDIT: Could we also possibly get a list of all the users who were nominated for each category? Must have missed that ^^;

Yay! And yes, I second the list of nominations if the award had them. ^_^

And here you can view the form again so you'll see all nominees <33

And regarding your question: If you won't be able to finish the threads in time, please inform us by posting in this thread! Perhaps someone else can take over the category you originally wanted to announce .

My two threads are up!

Thank you, Brit!! Moved <33

Can I ask who was nominated for best new member, as well as the winner? The voting form still has the fill-in-the-blank, and I don't see the winner listed for it.
