Last day is it not?

It is!

 

The deadline for Stage One is 23:59 TONIGHT; any nominations received after then will not be counted.

 

As cobystag correctly reminded people, the eligibility period that is the basis of the nominations/votes is 1 July 2010 to 30 June 2011.

 

On a personal note, if I was nominating, my own picks would include:

 

Jack Gallagher - the former snot-nosed punk Jack Toxic, now transformed into super-serious super-shooter. Genuinely excellent matches in GPW with El Ligero, Zack Diamond and Mikey Whiplash, and plenty more really good ones also involving CJ Banks, Danny Hope, Martin Kirby and others. One of the most engrossing wrestlers in the UK today.

 

Zack Diamond - again, based on his superb series of matches in GPW against Gallagher, CJ Banks and Mikey Whiplash (including several genuine UK MOTY candidates). Perfectly cast as a heroic, never-give-up babyface, you can't fail to cheer him.

 

Lewis "The Dragon" Chambers - has been around the north-east scene for a few years but a newcomer to 3CW in the past year, where he has looked really good. The most impressive newcomer to 3CW for a long time and eerily reminiscent of Pac in 2005 just before he exploded on the scene in 2006. Really good match with Iain Robinson then the standout performer in gang-style tag bouts against the invading 3 Count Mafia. Expecting big things from him nationwide within 2 years.

 

Mikey Whiplash - for his role in superb tag bouts as "The Allstars" in IPW:UK as well as terrific singles bouts in GPW against Diamond, Gallagher and William Gaylord

 

Bubblegum - continues to be truly excellent in his heel role in GPW, which was an absolute revelation to me. A terrific in-ring performer who really gets stories over and surprisingly fits the lead heel role really well. Epic main event singles bouts with El Ligero stand out as being the perfect example of good vs. evil.

Some suspicious ones creeping in:

 

- a handful of people who have only signed up to the forum in the last couple of weeks, never made a single post on the actual boards, then all submitting nominations for the same person, obviously their mate. As it stands though, with the number of nominations, it looks as though their efforts won't make a difference.

 

- another one where 3 almost identical lists came in from 3 different usernames within a 10 minute period, quite probably someone using multiple accounts from the same PC. I would ask a moderator to check the IP addresses but, again, it doesn't look like it is actually going to make an actual real difference.

 

Forget about that, though. Just over 5 hours until the Stage One deadline, and they are still coming in. Over 110 sets of nominations received so far. You still have a chance for your voice to be heard! Remember, at this stage you aren't necessarily giving your list of the Top 15 in the country, you are just being asked to provide 15 names of people you believe deserve a place somewhere in the Top 50.

Madness. Did they vote for other wrestlers or well, or just send in one name?

Haven't you said that suspicious votes would be disregarded in the past?
