We're STILL short of nominations; by this time last year we had a load, but they've been slow in coming this time; we might have to postpone or cancel the awards if people don't get their nominations in (as it wouldn't be fair on those who movie makers, actors, etc, whose nominators didn't get their votes in by the deadline otherwise).
Take an hour out of your time and NOMINATE!
Remember, the Ollies are YOUR awards, no-one elses; they are the only ones where YOU as an individual get YOUR chance to say "I really liked this; it/he/she, etc, should get some recognition for what they have achieved!"!
They stand or fall purely on the interest and commitment of the community as a whole, and the individuals within that community; we mere peons who organise it are just in it to do the best we can to ensure that the filmic collective can show it's appreciation for the best in machinima in the last twelve months.
If you don't support it by nominating and voting when the second phase comes, it will end up going the way of the Dodo.

Why should you bother with the Ollies? Because it's YOUR vote that counts!

I'm working on it! (It's so hard to choose!)
Indeed it is, which is all the more reason not to leave it to the last minute!

i'm a little dense - i submitted my nominations - but can't seem to find where to vote for the nominated films - or is it premature and we are using 'vote' interchangeably as 'nominate'?
Nominations end tomorrow (21 August) at midnight UK time; approximately a week later, the actual Voting stage begins, where we will unveil the finalists and throw the floor open to voting from the shortlist at that point.

I'm bettin' YOU wanna win an Ollie...
Well dontcha?
...who doesn't?

It does my old heart good to see how the community has responded at the twilight of the nominations to get their forms in; I'm betting there are some last minute nail biting, head scratching, nose chewing (nose chewing?!?!) moments going on at keyboards across the world as people struggle to answer the question "how the hell do I pick my personal bests from this lot???"
