(thread is in Gen. Anime for now until awards section can be unlocked)

--Before anyone asks why the number of runners-up for each category seems to be completely random, I basically looked at the point totals and did it by the eye test; wherever it seemed to make the most sense to draw the line I did. Not terribly scientific, but produces less awkward scenarios than just picking an arbitrary flat number would. I'll post some exact point counts in a little bit so you can see what I mean.

That's just how these things tend to go; it could have been much worse, trust me :P Anyway, that's why you wanted to do an extra "panel" vote, no?

I don't think earning extra awards is unbalanced, thinking about the oscars, sometimes certain movies just sweep the board because they are plain better then everything else. If people think an anime deserves the win in a category, I don't think it should matter even if it's winning in everything else.

(IMHO of course)

This is true of course, though I think she's pretty much just voicing her general dislike of popularity skew :P The multi-vote points system did mitigate it to some extent, (in a base plurality poll CGR2 would have won virtually everything) but you can never get rid of it entirely.

Anyway, as promised here are some more exact point totals, so people can see how close (or not) each vote was. Think I'll list the top 5 or so of each:

Kaiji won best plot?

And Code Geass R2 was the runner-up???

:O

I love Kaiji, but I don't consider it to have a great plot. Ah well, at least it won 3 awards.

Clannad over True Tears in both best drama/romance categories? I'm astonished.

To be honest, I'm strongly disappointed by the results in quite a few categories (most of them, actually :p), but that's some awesome work you did there Cetonis. Big thanks!
