I'm seriously confused... I know people nominated Kelly from TBD... and yet he's not there.
What's the deal?
We had tens of thousands of nominations.
Think "top list" -- the more unique votes, the higher up the list -- make the top half dozen or so and you become a finalist. Kelly may have had nominations, but not more of them than those who became finalists.
They can't even block cheating obviously, which is unfortunate as it hurts the integrity of the awards in the first place and will cast doubt on those who may actually win.

Allthough we made it into the finals I have to agree somehow, I mean I noticed some sites putting up a vote for us on surfer pages. Now I don't think thats what this is about or am I wrong?

Here is a PERFECT opportunity for you to tell us how you would like to see the nominations done -- what are your thoughts? What makes the most sense to you? Obviously we cant pick them in house, so we open them to the community, and even then you folks criticize. PLEASE, I BEG you, how do you think we should do it?

The voting process is obviously lacking. The way it's done now requires active marketing and promotion efforts which nominates the most resourceful voters. Whoever can proxy enough votes, as anyone can see by the nominees chosen.
I've noticed you have nominees choosing to withdraw as a result of this farce. Maybe you can find a way to qualify voters by making them register somewhere prior and be recognized first. Make them be registered, with a URL and a name? Not just a nick and a unique ip #.
I'm glad you're looking for ways to improve the procedure, and maybe next years won't be so manipulated.

i could easily load a proxy list of 100,000 proxies, and have it visit the url automatically.

are you seriously telling me the nomination process was COMPLETELY about clicking that link we saw everyone posting? and the people that got enough clicks got into the finalists?

well, it's not like we're talking big science here. Just make registered users with email addresses located at adult domains vote only once and that's it, see how easy?
your method implies that eventually 10 sites nobody heard of before could get a proxy list and vote for themselves, letting out people not doing that. I mean, I cannot imagine Mark Wylde or Bruno Dickman needing to do this. Even myself, I just clicked once and post a link for my nomination which I know a few people clicked, and that's it, no sweating about that.
Honestly, I see several categories where the proxy thingy happened for sure, no questions about that, including design category. Guess you have enough knowledge to determine which are the fakers and who the real ones, but the process itself as of today, is simply ridiculous.
As for the thread subject, I tried to see the site in question and there's just a splash page with a link to flicker. So, the same people is complaining about is what should be done? (ie people voting for a non existing site, which leads to the same questionable voting process)
anyway Kirsten, there you go
This post is endorsed by CIA, KGB, MI6, the Mafia, Illuminati, Kim Jong Il, Worldwide Ninjas Association, Klingon Empire and lolcats. Don't mess around with it, just accept it and embrace the truth
This is the same reason that good sites like nnvote ultimately suck and fail (in what the intention of the site was for), as it is just far too easy to cheat. Add a simple verification system to the voting process and you kill 80% of the cheaters nearly instantly. (you would still have those who could proxy-vote manually, but the time consumption would turn off the vast majority).
meh all of these "best of awards" are just a load of crap , biased results , popularity contests , ass kissers unite
i mean in order for someone to win a catergory , the voting parties would need to be members or atleast tried the other services in the nomination to clearly point out that X company is the best for that catergory
