(Stolen from Daniel and mine's BBUK Awards last spring)

(Doing this now whilst the section is active and will get attention)

Welcome to the BBCAN Awards (This is like the British Soap Awards but for BBCAN)

How it will work:

There will be a nominations round where you all PM me your four choices for each award, the four with the most will then go on to compete for the award.
No jokey suggestions will be counted, it must be relevant to that category.

Please PM me your top four choices and ones you would like to see nominated for each of these categories:

Best Male Houseguest
Best Female Houseguest:
Best Rivalry (can be cliques/alliances or individuals):
Best Twist:
Best Competition:
Best Single Week:
Best Eviction Result:
Sexiest Male:
Sexiest Female:
Best Argument:
Best Exit:
Best Episode:
Best Alliance:
Best Villain:

Other awards will be:

Best Season
Best Winner

These won't be in the nominations though as there are 5 of each and all have a shot of winning. The four most nominated choices will then go on to have a chance for the winner which you will send to me when it opens, along with the best season and best winner.

Nomination voting will close on Thursday 27th April 2017 at 7:30 PM.

The second round of voting will then open on Friday 28th April 2017 and will continue until Friday 5th May 2017, when the voting will close at 7:30 PM.

The awards ceremony will then take place on Saturday 6th May 2017 at 7:30 PM.

Please get voting!

I'll vote later on (only seen 4 & 5 though)

[Cal.]

Okay, no problem!

[Cal.]

You can vote up to 4 by the way - but can vote less if you don't have 4 things you wish to nominate.

[DouglasS]

would it make more sense for the second round of voting to open the day after the finale so we can vote for best winner for this season also

[Cal.]

Not now you want it no!

[Cal.]

(Isn't the finale on like 19th May?)

[DouglasS]

oop is it that far away

[Cal.]

I guess I could hold off on Best Season and Best Winner actually - that would make more sense

[Cal.]

What's the difference between Best eviction result and Best exit?

Is Best exit in terms of how they left? (e.g. Kelsey taking Maddy's duck, Sindy dragging the HGs on the way out etc.)

Yeah exactly that - and best Eviction Result would be like Neda being backdoored instead of Ika etc.

[Jason.]

I'll vote in this later

[Headie]

No Best Showmance category?

[LemonJam]

Is the villain category just reserved for houseguests with a negative edit or someone who plays the villain or has villainous attributes but has public support? (like Cassandra, Ika)

Both really. I'd class Cass and Neda both as Best Villain for completely different reasons.

[Headie]

Oh I didn't vote for Cass as best villain just because I thought she was classed as a Hero on both seasons

[DouglasS]

Yeah I didn't vote Cass for villan.

I thought villan could only really be out of; Tom/Liza/Sabrina/Kenny/Andrew/Maddy/Jared/Kelsey/Neda

I should have thought more as I understand how she could be classed as one in terms of her personality/gameplay, much alike Dr.Will - they're loved but can be regarded as a villan you root for at the same time.

[Cal.]

Cass said she was a villain in her BBCAN5 Bio!

[DouglasS]

I wish I'd voted for her now

[Cal.]

You can amend if you wish!

[Headie]

I still don't think she's a villain tbh, yeah she's a calculating and manipulative gameplayer but she was a fan favourite of Season 4 compared with everyone disliking Brothers/Kelsey/Maddy etc (all the people she was against) and she was preferred by the viewers over Neda in Season 5

I'd say the only real true "villain" that I actually really enjoyed was Sabrina, everyone else were villains because they were trash

[Cal.]

This closes tomorrow night at 7:30 PM!

[LemonJam]

Voted! I struggled with Best exit nominations (could only think of 2 funny ones) and best argument (because I struggled to narrow it down to 4)

[Cal.]

Thanks for all your votes!

I was SOO busy yesterday so didn't have time to open the second round of voting. I'll post everything that made the shortlist and open up the voting this afternoon
