We’ve tallied up all the nominations and the Bootleg finalists are here! For those of you just tuning in, here’s a quick overview:
What is a Bootleg?
The Bootleg Awards are the annual awards give to 20sb members by their peers. We opened up the free form on December 4th and collected nominations from the community until just last week.
How were the finalists chosen?
By you! The 20sb team counted all the submitted nominations and took the top five scoring nominees (sometimes more depending on ties). None of the finalists were chosen by the 20sb team in any way, shape or form. This is all about the community!
What’s the next step?
VOTE. That’s the only way to help your favorite bloggers get chosen. Follow the link below to the finalist voting form. Each 20sb member can vote once -and only once- for their favorites.
VOTING WILL REMAIN OPEN UNTIL JANUARY 15!
