Hear ye, Hear ye!

After the long and arduous journey of seeking voting nominations for the annual Drunk Duck Awards, the official list of finalists has been released just in time for the judges to deliberate over the final outcome of the awards. This is also a reminder for everyone who signed up to be an awards judge this year to monitor the Judge Forum for any updates. VOLUNTEER JUDGES ARE STILL WELCOME TO JOIN! The more the merrier, just create an account on the judges forum. In addition, if you have been listed as a nominee, then you can pick up your official badge on the Drunk Duck Awards Pages. These badges are for you to show off on your own comic page, on your forum signature, or you can print them up and tack them on your wall.

**Oh yes, and when you see Niccea around the site, please give her a big shoutout of appreciation because she is totally being a superstar for handling the awards. Thank you, Niccea, for all the work you have put into the awards!!

Without further ado, the official list of award nominees:

MILESTONE



Blue Strawberry fields forever! This delightfully intriguing comic by Eduds had just made it to the 225 page milestone. The once featured, Blue Strawberry, showcases original 8-bit styled art. I would highly advise that you flip through the archive. The updates are pretty hilarious.
