Nomination & Award Process:

1. Use this Nomination Submission Form to make your nomination, and be sure to include a brief comment on why you are nominating the individual. Nominations with no comment and only a name cannot be accepted. Please be sure you are spelling the name correctly.
2. Members may place in nomination a maximum of four (4) members per month; however, you may nominate only one (1) member per award category per month.
3. Nominations are automatically forwarded to the BYC Awards Committee. They will validate and tabulate all nominations.
4. Member must be active and in good standing in the BYC community to receive and/or retain awards.
5. Members may not nominate themselves for any award; all self-nominations will be voided. Members may not ask for nominations. Those doing so will have their nominations voided.
6. Qualified Awardees will be announced quarterly and medals given.
7. The Awards Committee, at its discretion and by majority vote, may elect to reclassify a nomination to a more appropriate award classification.
8. All nominations shall remain confidential and known only to the Awards Committee and BYC Staff.
9. The Members of the Awards Committee shall remain confidential and known only to BYC Staff.

Tips for nominating

1. Be sure you are spelling the username correctly. Please don't use the @ symbol.
2. Please be sure your nominee doesn't already have the medal you are nominating them for.
3. Please do not nominate yourself. This includes using alias accounts to nominate yourself. Self nominations will be voided.
4. Please do not tell your nominee that you nominated them. All nominations should be confidential. Please do not post about the nominations you have done on the forum. If you have questions about a certain nomination, please PM a Staff member. Confidentiality keeps everything fair and avoids hurt feelings.
5. Please do not ask for or otherwise solicit nominations. Doing so will void any nominations you receive.

You can start nominating now!

Some things to keep in mind....

PLEASE make sure the spelling is correct on your nominee. I can't tell you how many times we have had to skip over a name because it wasn't spelled right or the spaces weren't in the right place or the name was so similar to several others or we simply couldn't figure out who the intended nominee was.

Please also make sure your nominee doesn't already have the medal you are nominating them for.

The first post in this thread has very important guidelines on how and who to nominate.

Happy Awarding!
