The Planet Skaro Audios Awards - Season 1 (VOTE NOW!)

[Si Hunt]

Following your comments and suggestions on the other thread, here is your chance to vote for your favourite characters, performances and adventures in the Planet Skaro audios series! As the current season is still underway, this poll will cover what has retrospectively been designed Season 1 of the Audio's only - that's Echoes of the Protii, Soap Of Fatal Death, Keepsake and Doctor Who and the Christmas Gnomes (and the "minisode" Consequences). A second poll in the new year will seek your opinion on this years adventures.

We think it would be more fun if the votes were confidential (and you can then vote freely without fear of not voting for mates!!) so all we ask is that you copy and paste the categories below into an e-mail, highlight your choices (or remove the other nominations), and send it to psaudios@yahoo.co.uk

As well as your chosen winner(s) in each category, please include any comments you have, amusing or otherwise. This will both liven up the results presentation and give us some feedback for the future! We arn't just doing this for back-patting, we want to know what YOU want to hear more of on audio in the future!

You are welcome to vote for whoever or whatever deserves to win each category, regardless of if it's your own story/character etc. If you are a writer, performer or producer of the plays, please vote as well!

The closing date for entries is Monday 3 November, and the results will be announced the following weekend!

Now without further ado, here are the shortlisted nominations!
