Best Written Post: <Domdaniel> (*)

Best Historian(s): <Karpova>, <Calli>, <SBC> & <brankat>

PS: (*) Perhaps next year two Caissar categories can be created for "Best Written Post" one for 'fiction' and the other 'non-fiction'. If a 'fiction' category was created I'd vote this time for <AllergicToTurtles> ;)

  tpstar: Best Historian = <Calli>

Best Written Post = <Domdaniel>

<malthrope> There was discussion a few years ago about splitting it into "Best Post" (meaning one specific post) and "Best Writer" (overall) but we never changed it.

  jessicafischerqueen: Can anyone help? I went to the link posted on <kibbutzer cafe>, but I still can't find the nominees for

Last year <MannBee> was the only nominee, but I heard a rumor that <Technical Draw> wears a Bee costume when he plays in tournaments.
