And the nominees are ...
Under the cut are the official nominees for Moste Potente Passions Round Two: Property of the Half-Blood Prince. Congratulations to all the nominees!
This is simply for your perusal. DO NOT VOTE YET!!
VOTING BEGINS April 1 as soon as I post the Voting Post, which will most likely be midnight central time in the US. So, a little over an hour from now, roughly. ;)
PLEASE NOTE: There are a lot of nominees. We decided it wasn't a good idea to change the rules midway through a round, with the exception of saying "there must be two nominations to qualify." That dropped one category from around 40 (which was just unreasonable to expect people to read) to 3.
If you have any questions, do not hesitate to ask. Also, if you notice any wrong or broken links, please let us know!
Thanks everyone!
EDIT: A huge thanks to renitaleandra for going over all the noms with a fine-tooth comb to be sure everything was on the up and up!
