The 2004 Weblog Awards polls are now open, featuring yours truly and quite a few of the folks in my sidebar. I pulled out all of the Munuvians who made the cut and posted that over at the central Munuviana blog.

The campaigning and politicking for votes promises to be fierce. You won't find that here, of course. As exemplified by our failed presidential campaign, I am an incredibly lazy politician with almost no skills whatsoever in successful campaigning.

So without further ado, here's who you should vote for. Voting for other people in these contests will make me sad. I could possibly enter a pouting state if things get bad enough. You can (and should!) vote once each day in each poll. The poll category lines link to the actual polls, the blog names link to the blogs. You're probably reading all of these regularly anyway but I've included the links just in case.

* Jen would have been in this category if she made the cut. Since she didn't get in due to some administrative oversite, thus giving me some small chance of victory a guarantee of victory in the face of all other blogs, I'm pledging to share my award with her if when I win.

** Both of these lovely ladies fell into the same category. Voting for either of them will make me happy. You do want me to be happy, don't you?

*** Similar to the ladies, supporting either of these two gents is goodness incarnate. Yeah, I know that this third footnote is referenced first. It came on an edit, okay? Live with it.

1 Goddamn that NZ Bear. Do you know how many times I've submitted my URL change for my weblog? And NOTHING. He will NEVER change it. That's why I'm nominated for the best 5000-6750 block--it's http://ilyka.journalspace.com that the ranking is based on. Or that's my excuse, anyway.

2 I am so rankled at not bein' nominated in any category that I am abstainin' from votin' in this fiasco, 'cept that I will vote daily for Munuviana to show my support for the community that so lovin'ly ignores me. It's almos' 'zactly like my real life.

3 Just so you know, I'd comment here more often if you'd just give me a freaking cookie. Is it that much to ask? Anyway, since I nominated you (along with the lovely Simon, but I did it first), it'll be just like winning when you win. Better than losing to you, as I surely would have done.

4 So, Ilyka - playing the southpaw are we? I see how you are. Professional blogsharp we've got in our midst. ;-)

5 Pray, do not mock me! I looked again and I guess now there's a bit of code or something you add to your old url to auto-update the Ecosystem. It should have worked by tomorrow if it's going to work at all. And then I'm gonna ask Aylward to pull me from the nominees entirely because I sure don't need that bastard Paul laughing at me. "5000-6750, hee hee!" Oh, wait. I yelled at Aylward once for linking 13 year-old girl masturbation videos, didn't I? I gotta quit burning those bridges.

6 Just wanted to mention that fellow Munuvian Nick of Patriot Paradox is also in the 100-250 category. Which means we have both good and bad completely covered Now we just need to find an ugly blog...

7 Doh! Darned that non "mu.nu" url! Second time that one's tripped me up. Is fixed.
