Before next years awards season, we'll likely post something about it so this doesn't happen again, maybe we could vote on new ones to add to the established ones, but it's too soon to start discussing that now. No harm done though, there's nothing wrong with being enthusiastic 
Wait... you want a vote to say whether or not there are too many votes?! ... Brexit is really reaching into people's psyche in some strange ways!
(But yeah 1 new one can only be started if a old one is arranged to be dropped might be a good thing.
)
I am pming Kingsmind personally as I do feel a tad guilty by virtue of starting Body of the year. The sense that me doing so gave the potential to open understandable if not universally desirable floodgates is palpable.
I did consider pulling the Body vote entirely earlier today. After private discussions with a few respected forum folk however the decision has been made to keep it going.
Partly for the reasons I eluded to in my last post and partly because the initial round of voting is nearing completion anyway.
I echo the sentiments of skully 100%.
As ever the voice of reason.
And there was I looking forward to the fake tits of the year competition.
But seriously, although there are perhaps too many awards this year, I don't think we really need limits. People can always choose whether or not to vote in a contest.
Ok, here's a suggestion.
Weren't the tits and ass comps for last year held in January this year?
Why not make that the norm. Have the serious comps just now, have a break for Christmas and new year, then have the tits, ass, and maybe a couple of other body related ones in January when things are alot quieter.
^I'll run with that idea, I think the serious ones should take priority before Xmas then a break then the smaller more fun ones say open up on New Years Day 2020. Also I think a staggering of the competitions could be a far better idea.
Say end of September we have nominations rounds for some competitions like say HOF and maybe the St66 (if St66 make that far into 2020!) ones, then those competitions start in October and must be completed by end October, then we start XP/BS/Ultimate Comp nominations (as I would consider these aforementioned awards to be the most prestigious and established ones for the babes & Channels on the forum at present), either end of October or early November, and then they run through to either end of November/early December.
Thus leaving Dec for us to concentrate on our Forum awards and then maybe we could possibly consider having our own Sports personality of the year award type thing as well, as I feel that is one award thingy lacking on the forum as sport is widely discussed as it is considering the amount of threads in the section. At least there wouldn't be any 0898 numbers involved - (like the BBC or as Nicko from Maiden would put it, Bleeding Bodge up Company) one!
What I'm trying to say is this: - The mods could possibly come up with a program of which awards can be nominated for & started and have to be completed by, thus allowing votes to be casted and that would mean there aren't too many awards running at the same time, so votes don't get lost or members missing out voting in certain competitions. i agree no harm was done with the amount of comps, but at the same time it would make things much easier if the established awards are given priority before December.
How does that sound?

Agree Silent Majority.
Maybe i will run the Legs and Pussy award in January it might work out better that way but maybe not this January next January.

Got a question for you Babelover how would a Sports type award be run then since none of the babes are sports stars the Hall Of Fame makes sense to me i know they ain't sports stars but in the Hall Of Fame you could be in the Hall Of Fame without being a sports star if you get what i mean so what i am trying to say Babelover is how would a Sports Personality Of The Year award work i need to understand.
A part from that Babelover your idea is a great idea having awards run from September to January why didn't anyone think of that ages ago that way the awards won't be muddled up and confusing and that way we can get on with voting once a month maybe twice a month instead of eight times in a hole month that is so much easier.
i feel starting awards for the year in september is far to early dont think any of the awards should start before november, you need to take into account as much of a year as you can when making a choice,
i do like the idea of having smaller awards in Jan i think that would work well, i hope Kingsmind re-runs his then,
