Is there a “Popularity Contest” element to the Streamy Awards?
The Streamys are primarily a merit-based awards mixed with a small splash of popularity contest. The series or individual with the most submissions in each of the non-Craft categories will automatically become an Official 2010 Streamy Awards Nominee. Only one submission, per IP address, per category, per day will be counted (i.e. If the same person submits for the same show in the same category 300 times in one day, only one of those votes will count). With the exception of the Audience Choice Award, the remaining nominees in every category will be decided by members of the International Academy of Web Television.
