None of what you said sounded the least bit insulting so I don't see why you feel the need to apologize or make it clear that you aren't trying to offend anyone or upset :P

I see where you're coming from. For the most part it's a little late to fix a lot of it (particularly the categories, which, I agree, we were lacking- we couldn't nominate bands for anything except their songs, etc.) but it's stuff to keep in mind for next year (I'm assuming we'll have awards next year too). This is kind of a pioneering thing, so it's gonna be a little messy :P

The nominating did get a little more confusing than I predicted. I can kind of see the bias too, but I honestly feel like it was less bias, more lack of options. With the vague categories we ended up with (like "best show", leaving out genres and such) a lot of shows and actors got left out simply because there are the few that always get promotion and are always on top of everyone's mind (which isn't necessarily a bad thing, but still). If we had gone more specific, shows like Leslie Wireless, Genie!, Dramatically Average, etc. would have had a better chance of being nominated because they have elements other shows have- they just aren't mentioned a lot.

The voting, which is separate from the nominating, will use SurveyMonkey. That was always the plan. :P
