Awards Voting Criteria

Every GM is be required to submit a list of five nominees for each award.  The list must have the nominees ranked in order from one (highest) to five (lowest).  Nominees who are listed first will be given 10 points.  Second will receive 7 points, third 5 points, fourth 3 points, and fifth 1 point. (10-7-5-3-1).

There is one caveat to this process: General Managers may NOT vote for one of their own players or themselves.  Period.  Not first, not second, not third, not fourth, not fifth.  They may only vote for nominees they feel are deserving of the award on other teams.  Unfortunately, I have seen in voting for things like All-Stars, that some GMs will vote for their player in every situation, even when obviously not worthy.  I know this will ensure there can never be unanimous winner.

The deadline for submitting your lists is the first game of the second round of the 1995 playoffs.  This is a mandatory item for league participation.

In the event of a tie, the winner will be the nominee who received the most 1st place votes.  If they have the same number of 1st place votes, it will be determined by who got the most 2nd place votes and so on. If they are still tied, the nominees will share the award.
