Since we're going into this cold without prior discussion/votes on what should make up certain categories, I can't support a category like "Award Winners". We haven't decided what that even means yet. I would never support it if it means any award winners including genre, because then it'd probably just turn into a genre sci-fi/fantasy month.

Knowing that Hamlet53 was in favour of combining Sci-Fi and Fantasy, it seems like his nomination might have been as one option of "Sci-Fi and Fantasy" rather than two separate ones.

This seems like a rather long way to go about doing this. I think with most other ways the entire process including deciding monthly order would be done well before January. But an advantage to this way is that the monthly order is decided along the way.
