The polls from the Second Nominations thread have been posted, so (can you believe it?) we're ready for our final round of nominations:

The final categories are:

The Unusual Unit Award:

Best Converted Unit:
Best Multiple Unit:
Best Themed Unit Collection:

Best Collaboration:

Best Mod of the Decade:
Best Graphic of the Decade:
Best Unit of the Decade:


Members may make one nomination in each category. Please, one post per member. Note: it is okay, in this round, to nominate units, graphics, or Mods that have been in previous polls. It is okay to nominate a creation in more than one category in this round.

We require (request) that your nominations include a link, or an accompanying web address. I spend too much time chasing nominations without links, and that delays the publishing of polls, and reduces the time everyone has to vote, etc., etc.

Like last time, you have all month to perfect your nominations. Nominations for this round will officially close 11:59 p.m. Hawaiian time (don't ask), Sept. 30, 2011. Again, in the last round a few nomination posts were started, but not completed, so please do the creator(s) you'd have nominated a favor by finishing your nomination post.

See the 1st post in the Categories (http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=426703) thread in this forum for a complete list of all of the Decade Awards categories.

As always, the contest organizer (me) reserves the right to make arbitrary dictatorial decisions to resolve any sticky issue. Easier that way.

Please don't post questions or comments in this thread. Please post them in the Decade Awards Main Forum Discussion Thread (http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=430858). Thank you, and please, Nominate wisely!
