Hello,

Welcome to the voting period of the 16th annual KarateForums.com Awards!

Through these awards, we recognize just a few of the individuals who have made outstanding contributions to KarateForums.com in the past year.

You submitted your nominations and, from those, we have our KarateForums.com Awards 2017 nominees. In all, 17 different members have been nominated in the various categories that make up this year's awards. They are Spartacus Maximus, singularity6, Alan Armstrong, sensei8, bushido_man96, DWx, Zaine, Wastelander, Lupin1, TJ-Jitsu, Nidan Melbourne, MatsuShinshii, JR 137, Wado Heretic, tallgeese, Tempest and Bulltahr. Congratulations to all of you!

sensei8 leads the nominations with 4, followed by Spartacus Maximus, bushido_man96, Nidan Melbourne and JR 137, who have 3. Our historical award numbers have been updated and several members have hit amazing milestones. Congratulations to bushido_man96 on reaching 40 nominations (now with 41, an all-time KarateForums.com Awards record!), sensei8 on reaching 30 and JR 137 on reaching 10 (now with 12).

With the ballots crafted, it is now time to vote.

What You Should Know Before Voting

1. These awards take into consideration all community activity between October 19, 2016 and October 18, 2017. You should vote based upon activity during this period - not activity prior to or after it.

2. To vote, you must have a KarateForums.com account with at least 10 posts made on or before October 18, 2016.

3. You cannot vote for yourself.

4. Your votes will be kept private. We do not publicly reveal who voted for whom.

5. Please do not attempt to artificially inflate our vote totals in any way. This includes, but is not limited to: Trading votes, encouraging people to vote indiscriminately (publicly or privately), sending spam and any other behavior that could lead to results being artificially skewed. Members found to be participating in these activities will be disqualified from nomination in any category.

6. Please note that you do not have to vote in every category. You can vote in as many or as few as you would like - please go for as many as you feel comfortable with. The more valid votes we receive, the better!

Please note that the nomination in this category was not counted in our historic totals above, for the sake of suspense, but we will update those numbers once the honoree is announced.
