Be the change, not the challenge.

We want this to be inclusive.

Hi everyone, just a quick note about the nomination process. To ensure this remains professional, fair, and respectful for everyone involved, we’d appreciate it if nominations could focus solely on the criteria provided. It’s important for the process to reflect the effort and seriousness we’re putting into this. Thanks for your understanding and cooperation!

Just another note here. You might think you are being funny or witty with silly nominations and comments but we are trying to put together something fun for everyone here. Please meet us halfway and either submit genuine nominations or leave it blank if you don’t know.

It’s pretty simple.

Sorry to see shitty people being shitty, ladies. Thanks for the work you’re putting in! It’s appreciated.
