Well, as you know, skeezer and me have been organizing the Best of 2008 awards in this site. Now, after a lot of counting, the nominees have been decided. This thread is NOT for voting, do not vote here, just to announce it, and to see what do people think about it. I'll set a thread to vote soon (when I manage to do all the polls)
Thanks to all the people who contributed with their nominations, it's a list too long to put it here, but know that this wouldn't have been possible without all of you.
Good luck to all the nominees, and may the best on each category win!
And the nominees are:
