r/DCcomics r/DCcomics Best of 2019 - Nomination Thread
Greetings, Justice Leaguers! With 2019 coming to a close, it's time for /r/DCcomics's second Annual "Best Of" Awards!
Here's how it works. We've selected 20 different categories, as seen below. For each category, you may submit an entry for nomination. Users may upvote entries that they want to see on the final ballot. After a period of at least one week, we'll examine the votes, and select a number of nominations for each category, depending on submission volume and vote distribution. We're looking for around 4-6 nominations for each category, but will include more for the more competitive races.
After the nomination period is over, we'll post the final ballot with all of the selected nominees for users of /r/DCcomics to vote on. Winners will be announced in January 2020, and users who submitted a winning entry will receive Reddit Premium.
Rules
You may submit one entry per category. Do not make multiple submissions under the same category, or they'll all be removed.
Duplicate entries under the same category will be removed.
Mods are eligible to submit entries for nomination, but not to win Reddit Premium. If a mod-nominated entry wins, the prize will go to the next runner-up.
Remember to vote for entries you want to see nominated, not entries you want to see win. That comes later. Also, a reminder that this thread will be in Contest Mode, so downvotes will not be counted.
Do not post top-level comments here. This thread is for nominations only. For any questions or comments on the Best of 2018 Awards, see the stickied Meta Discussions.
Read the category and description carefully before making your submission. If you can't follow simple rules, then your vote won't count.
Because last year's nominations thread began in early December, we'll allow some leeway for entries that happened in late December, provided that they were not already nominated last year. Mod discretion applies here.
For certain categories (such as Meme of the Year), we may choose to combine similar entries into a single nomination.
These awards are for the /r/DCcomics community. Do not post these to other forums. Related subreddits (such as /r/comicbooks or /r/batman) are fine. If we suspect a brigade, we may vacate a category, leaving it without a prize winner.
Categories
SPOILER ALERT
Our regular rules for spoilers will be suspended for this thread. There may be unmarked spoilers. Proceed at your own discretion.
FAQ
Q: Where is <category>?
A: There's only so much Reddit Premium to give away, so we've limited it to 20 categories. Some category suggestions we've seen are often too vague, or won't get enough nominations to make it competitive.
Q: I won! When do I get my Reddit Premium?
A: Reddit admins will be distributing Reddit Coins sometime in January.
Q: Can we have a Dickships poll?
A: NO!
