Kamala! said...

Do we get to see each ohter's entries?

Kamala! said...

Of course I mean each otters.

K2 said...

Eliza, would you like me to set up a google spreadsheet? We could all enter our own. You'd have to print it up at 7:00 on the day to preclude any late alterations, though.

EPC said...

i can just post it here after everyone has voted. that's what i did last year

K2 said...

That's fine.

Chhibbs said...

Using the Buster system, my friends dog went hard for The Hurt Locker in the quality categories and Avatar in the visual effects categories. I think we may be on to something, as Buster recognized that Gladiator would win many awards when it was nominated for everything in 2001.

EPC said...

i'm confused by chhibb's comment.

send your ballots, people! i have zero so far. not including me, of course.

Chandran said...

that was sara.

K2 said...

Chhibbs meant the Cheerios & Dog method. It was a huge success in the Gladiator year, but hasn't worked all that well since.
