Editor Awards 2000 by Jschwart & Gracel
Congratulations to the winners and nominees of the first Official-Unoffical Staff Supported Editor Awards.  The awards were done as a way of recognizing the accomplishments of editors based on nominations and votes from their peers.  The categories were based on last years unofficial awards with a few changes (e.g. no sexiest editor image this time around). Nominations were taken over a three week period. Voting took place for almost two weeks.  The awards were announced on Tuesday, July 10.  Almost 200 editors voted in the awards.  We hope to have an even bigger turn out in January when we will have the awards again.  Thanks to everyone who voted. Staff would like to offer our special thanks to newwave for his help and assistance.
