Wow... This snuck up on me. We are just 10 days away from the ballots being due. Quick reminder on a few things.
1. Please only vote for matches that are fully nominated or have met the criteria for nomination but aren't moved (we are thankful for your patience as moderating this board can't be at the top of any of our priority lists).
2. Have your ballot submitted by the end of the show please
3. Please list the matches as they are found in the index (or close to it). It makes it a lot easier for us.
4. DOUBLE CHECK YOUR LIST. It is a lot of manual entry so there are always mistakes. It happens. But please take a second to double check, especially if you have multiple matches with the same people.
5. Be patient with the results this year. We are approaching the holiday season, so I think we are all a little extra busy.
6. Have fun!

I've been going through the Nominations folder and moving stuff over. If there's something you want to vote for that isn't properly nominated yet, just write a paragraph in the thread explaining why you think the match should be considered and I'll move it over.
The '3 people or 1 paragraph' rule isn't intended to stop anyone voting for matches they want to, it's just a process to ensure every match voted on has some reason written down for why people should check it out.There was a 'Greatest WCW Matches' poll years ago where a match received a #1 vote despite nobody ever even mentioning it until the ballots came in, so we want to avoid stuff like that happeneing. These projects are more about finding and discussing great wrestling than the actual results.

This is a great point and summation of our reasoning for doing it this way.

Thanks guy for putting effort into this. This will be my first time participating, and while I'm not 100% sure about my final list, the fun will come as I rewatch stuff and challenge my old perceptions for future GMEs.

I missed out last year. I watched as the results came in. I’m still iffy on the list but I hope everyone will post their lists so we will have lots to discuss in the following months.

Once we get closer to the deadline I'll start a thread for everyone's individual list. I know folks often post them in their individual rewatch/review threads as well.

Submitted my ballot. Feels good to be done with it. My "top 5 candidates" stretch all the way to #58 and my "top 10 candidates" take us to 97 hahahaha

Well, my first-ever ballot has been submitted. Noy entirely happy, as I didn't finish to rewatch most of the 80s and 00s stuff I wanted, and I forgot to nominate some of the matches I wanted to vote for (duh), but still, pretty excited to contribute this time, and I'm specially happy with the first half of my list, more or less. I will show my final ballot at my personal project topic, and obviously I'm gonna be reacting to the final 2021 GME list with all of you. Hope to watch a lot more of great wrestling by 2022, and see how stuff changes!

I just saw a #1 vote that was interesting and surprising (both in a good way).
Glad we have so many new folks submitting this year.
