Update: 4th June 3 More days left to get your votes in before we start final voting.
Well it's now time to start voting to get the nominations down to the final 7 in each Category. We've had the biggest nomination list to date for this season.
As previously mentioned due to the nature of the polls we will be doing the polls for this elimination phase in the new forums as they can handle much larger polls and will save me countless hours.
This phase will open for a period of about 1 week when I will then collate all the results and we can then start voting on the homepage here to see who are the winners from the final 7 in each category.
So without any further ado please start you voting and remember you will need to register a free account in the forums to participate in this elimination phase.
Thanks again to you all for all the great nominations.
There may be some duplicates so please let me know and I will ensure they they are added correctly before the final votes take place. Also if I have missed any out I apologize but I'm only human :)
You can access all the polls here or view the individual ones below.

Awesome!! And the fact that we can change our vote is great, too! Thanks! :)
i think you should have taken away the duplicates for some of them as its not very fair otherwise
Leeloo: Thanks, glad you like it.
Chilli: As I said in the post, there will be duplicates but they will be all accounted for when the work out the final totals.
excuses for off-topic but:
WHERE IS VOZZEK's T.I.N.
I can't vote. Does I has to be registated?
Also, most of the "Funny Scenes" aren't that great and you're missing some of the really good ones. Like when Sawyer asked Miles where Claire was. But that's okay, because you have the actual funniest one: Ben and Hurley sharing the candy bar.
HERE IS VOZZEK's T.I.N.
As soon as he sends it to me it will be posted.
Does I has to be registated?
Yes, as we'ved mentioned several times over the last couple of weeks :)
i'm just surprised no one thought of adding abbadon's: are they still alive? quote which was awsome
Got another Best Line: Hurley's "Checkmate, Mr. Eko." Creepy and awesome.
Nathan: Nomination phase is closed. We are already voting.
call me an idiot, but how do you vote. I registered, but when I click on the forums, there is nothing to indicate that i can vote. am I missing something.
@lonski: Had the same problem, try going to the Board Index and clicking Log In right at the top.
Have to be honest, the forums aren't entirely user-friendly. Polls are taking ages to load, and when I vote it's just bringing up a 'webpage could not be displayed' message. :|
darkufo, I know. I'm just letting you know what you missed out on.
Yep the forums are getting hit very hard currently as everyone tries to register and vote. At some point in the future we will be moving to a dedicated server which will remove the problem but these cost $200 a month to run so we need to work out a way of paying for this.
In the meantime just be patient and hopefully try again when the initial surge is over.
Thought it was just me having problems. Glad I checked the comments here :)
So I'm going to the previous comments explains why I haven't gotten the email yet that I've registered. Everyone is trying to do it at once. I'll try back later. As always Dark, thanks for doing all of this and keeping us busy during the long hiatus! Cheers!!
I'm going to guess.....was what I meant!!
Shar: Remember to check your spam/junk folder in case it gets flagged incorrectly.
If you still have not received your confirmation/activation email let me know and I'll activate you manually.
Dark, this seems like a really convoluted way of doing things. What's wrong with just putting the polls on the main site here? x

Hi Tom. As I have mentioned the polls on the main site ie the blog can only handle 7 options, the polls on the forum can handle 20 at a time. For some of the categories we had over 70+ nominations, which would mean I would have to create 10+ polls just for that 1 category, which I'm afraid I simply don't have the time to do. This way I create 66% less polls to get the job done.
Once we are down to 7 nominations we can then proceed to have the final awards on the using the standard polls.
usually the forums are very fast for me, but they're being really slow, maybe there's just a lot of people online? :D
ah okay I just read the updates :) maybe I'll just vote tomorrow...

Thanks Dark, that's where it was. I'm looking forward to voting!
@darkufo
I looked through the polls and I didn't see the ones I nominated yesterday for best scene and best line. I thought I just had to put it in the comments section like I saw everyone else do. Was I supposed to do something else, like email them to you? I'm a little disappointed, but at least I'd know for next year. Thanks.
How do you vote?
I don´t like these competitions, really, I have my favourite episodes, characters, reveals, couples, and the best lines and I´m have almost always different opinions on individual polls than others, we must know, that this is only tv show, which write two men,Damond Lindelof and Carlton Cuse, and they did in this season all for this, that I don´t like them.:( absolutely sci-fi, action show stopper, couples and characters, who they ruined, death (Alex, my favourite character:()...
Moreover:
Their tv show fall down,I´m sorry, but it is true:((, season 1 and 2 and episode 3x22-23, 3x21, 3x20 are the best, but I still believe, that it will be better in next seasons:( I will be still watch and we see, if Lost will be better.
Ah, that makes sense Dark. Thanks for taking the time to reply :)
I am registered and logged in, but all I can see is people's comments in the forum. I do not understand how and where to vote. The pages are loading quickly now, but nowhere do I see where I can vote...can only read comments!Please, I want to Vote.
@Dark - Like jedda I'm having the same problem. I'm completely confused. In fact, even though it said I was logged in, I'm not listed in the "who is online" group. (I registered, activated and logged in.) I hope I can get this figured out before time runs out on the voting. I have a very busy week coming up and can't spend too much time on this. I was already disappointed that my nominations didn't make it even though I was sure I got them in before the deadline. Now this. Where's the instruction booklet? HELP!
Dana and Jedda, can you email me a screenshot of what you see so I can work out why you cannot see the polls.
I don't think people should be able to post on the polls. It is clogging the site.
Just vote and move on.
I've got the same problem. I can only see the results of others votes but there is no place to vote. It takes me to another site with the results. Sometimes I get a broken link too.
Still having troubles. I was able to finally vote after 10 minutes of trying to log on. After I voted in the first poll and submitted my vote I got kicked out again. Is it really busy still or is it just a problem that I am encountering????
Help :)
QueenZ and others: No, it's not just you it's just very very busy.
I've ordered a new server but this could take a few days to get delivered and setup etc. Hopefully traffic will die down a little and will be a bit easier.
Once the new server is online it should be zippy :)
Thanks dark:)
Glad you are leaving the polls up for a week. Hopefully things will quiet down soon over there. Glad to see the forums are so popular :)
voting is so messy in the forums!! i miss the way we decided season 3 awards and nominations..
:(
why can't you use the same type of polls that you used for the episode elimination thing?
that appears to host more than 7 nominations and let you do multiple votes
why can't you use the same type of polls that you used for the episode elimination thing?
Because the A) the Free accounts only have so many polls you can post and b) You cannot easily prevent cheating from multiple repeat voters.
I only used the polldaddy poll today as the Forums were down.
The Forum polls are much better imho for bulk/large polls and we can stop cheating.
Off Topic...
Weird but I'm not feeling that "I miss Lost sooo much feeling" like I did after seasons 1,2 and 3. It's just weird....
Hi Dark,
I've not received my email saying that I registered -- unfortunately I didn't see your comments about checking my spam folder until after I'd just emptied it. : ( What can I do?
Thanks,
Allison
