Who can vote?
To be eligible to vote, you must have been a member on BricksInMotion.com before July 1st, 2011.

How do I vote?
You will choose ONE film from the shortlist to vote for the Viewer's Choice Award. To clarify, this award is essentially Best Film, but voted by the community instead of judges. Send the title of the film and the director's name to the user BIMA11 through a private message. You may vote for one film only, if multiple films are included, your ballot will be disqualified. Please try to watch all of the films at least once, it is a large list, but many of them you will probably have already seen. This is to avoid unfair bias.

When do I vote?
Ballots will be accepted from now until Sunday, May 6th, 2012. This gives you almost 3 weekends to watch the films and decide.

Results
Results will be announced (along with the other awards) at a later date, currently undecided. The exact date and time will be announced later.
Remember, send your ballot to the user BIMA11 with the title and director name of the film. You will have until Sunday, May 6th.

Did you try it in all caps like Jargon posted?

Too bad I'm a newcomer, I would love to vote. So many great films listed here. If I could vote, I might go for My Father is a Tyrannosaurus Rex. I really liked that film. It's a hard choice though.
