LOL the same proceedure will apply as last time.... the nominees are actually put in the awards program you are handed that evening as you walk in the door.  After careful consideration the nominees are narrowed down to the final 3 or 4.
Keep in mind... for example best website..... the entire ne region who has a website...are nominees. LOL so... u just cant list them all.. they have to be narrowed down.
The awards nominees/winners were anounced in this forum last time after the event I will dig up the thread for you.
We also have a website now that will give more up to date info. This site will be used all year round for news on where the next one will be held as well as winner info and event highlights.
I will post the link as soon as I get the green light from our webmaster its okies for viewing

I had assumed when the sticky post stated "All nominees will be announced on April 7th." that we would see a listing of nominees on or shortly after that date.
In my opinion, there would be the potential for more people to decide to attend the awards ceremony if they knew their chapter had the potential for winning an award.

Yes that can work in the opposite way as well. For all those who werent nominated, wouldnt go either
I will repeat myself one more time and say ALL the RSA's vote on the region and narrow it down to the final 3 or 4 nominees. This process is currently underway.
Again, consider all chapters in the NE a nominee at this point. we take into consideration all nominations sent in. The reason attached to those nominations are all taken into consideration during the voting process.
I know everyone is excited however everyone must let the process run its course. 
I am excited too believe me. 
Remember, this was started so that chapters from all over the NE could meet and have a more community feel in the region. So the incentive for chapters to attend would be... FUN !!!
Now I hate to run off however, I have a million things to do before the awards. I look forward to seeing everyone there. 
I will post updates if any as I get them
Later taters!!!

We had a blast. I hope we weren't too rowdy.
It was great to meet some fellow FFers and hang out!
Kudos to Strawbary for puting it all together.

I think though Marie offered to have it at her house awards / BBQ so ... hmmm may go there providing Gary wheres his kilt....

I hope everyone had a great time. None of this is at all possible without the help of all the GSA'S/RSA's who voted and also EVERYONE in the region for all their volunteering and excellent work they have done.
These awards are intended to bring the region closer together and to have fun. I hope everyone had just that... fun!!!!
I look forward to seeing everyone again at the next awards not to mention see some new faces there as well!
Congrats to ALL the nominees and winners!!!
A very very special thanks to everyone who particiapted in the planning and ehtertainment for this. the awards wouldnt have worked without you.
I cant forget to thank Itorian and Darth raptor for their wonderful entertainment during the improv and live performances from Ithorian. I have a few on video I will try to upload to the website.
there are just so many people involved and so many to thank. Just know that you guys all rock and its not at all possible without everyone working together.
and one more note on the awards..... KILTS ARE HOT!!!!

I had a great time at the awards.
I plan on havng my kilt for next year. I may have to shave the legs though...
Great job by strawbary once again.
Thanks to Pittsburgh fanforce for being a great host and hanging with Gary, Marie, RJ, and me on Friday night.
I had a long trip back about 12 hour with traffic but it was well worth it.
I can't wait until next year.
It was really great to meet everyone.

It was just awesome having everyone come in for the Comicon and Awards. We had a wonderful time and are glad to hear other folks did, too.
Strawbary, you rock.
SWAP was just stunned to have won the Yoda Award. We are deeply honored by it.
Kilts are hot.

Great weekend, everyone! I had a killer headache by Sunday afternoon, so if I seemed aloof, that's why. I'm feeling much better now.
I must make a note to move the Mon Mothma costume further up the list of projects. I need something that involves no headgear or wigs of any kind!
The panels were fun to do, especially the costume panel. An hour isn't nearly long enough. Thankfully, there were no more panels that day! Thanks to everyone who participated, especially the guys we snagged at the last minute. We had a nice variety of costumes to talk about.
The dinner was great! Even the duel with my (now former) padawan went well. About 3.5 hours of practice for a 20 second duel!
Great Amidala costume, Terry!
