@Uncanny X-Man, seems your votes are mostly exact as Rift.

When it comes to voting, you can use the opening post and fill out, to make it easier.

Hah no I know, I copied his post for convenience and then was starting to fill it out with my own answers... and then I fell asleep. I will finish editing it later today. And I'll tell you what, I wasn't even sure if I'd dreamed it or if it happened for real LOL

[Uncanny X-Man]

Alright I went and fixed all my votes. Oh and thank you as always, Master of Sound, for putting this all together every year! It's definitely one of the highlights for me and I appreciate all the work that goes into it enormously!

[Jesse James]

Great youÂ’re doing this again, MoS!

I cannot believe I forgot to add Ironfire & Whitesword in the Best Romance/Kiss category.
