Here's the current list of categories. New ones are bolded, ones under consideration for removed are italicized:

The Darth Vader "The Force is Strong in this One" Award for Best Character Development

The Grand Moff Tarkin "Evacuate? In our Moment of Triumph?" Award for Best Ending

The General Veers "You May Start Your Landing" Award for Best Ground Combat

The Lando Calrissian "We'll Last Longer Than We Will Against That Death Star!" Award for Best Space Battle

The Master Yoda "Judge Me By My Size, Do You?" Award for Best Duel

The Darth Vader "Luke...I am your Father" Award for Most Unexpected Plot Twist

The Princess Leia "I'd Just as Soon Kiss a Wookiee!" Award for Best Romance - Let's face it, romance isn't a big part of any fics here :) If you guys want to keep it, though, fine by me, but this category has usually been very thin.

The Grand Admiral Thrawn "When You Understand a Species' Art, You Understand that Species" Award for Most Creative Tactic

The Lt.Cmdr. Data "Quantum Tetryon Actuator" Award for Best Use of Technobabble

The George Lucas "Better than 'TPM/AOTC'" Award for Best Title - Because The Phantom Menace was just as lame as Attack of the Clones.

The Jean-Luc Picard "THERE ARE FOUR LIGHTS!" Award for Best Torture

The Borg Collective "Resistance is Futile" Award for Best Use of Star Trek

The Jabba the Hutt "My Favorite Decoration" Award for Best Use of Star Wars

The Tasha Yar "That's it!" Award for Funniest Death

The Commander Worf "Feeling Aggressive Tendencies" Award for Goriest Fanfic

The Mon Mothma "Many Bothans Died to Bring Us This Information" Award for Highest Body Count

The C-3PO "Let the Wookiee Win" Award for Most Fair and Unbiased Fanfic - I'm considering removing this one. Fairness and bias aren't very relevant to a good story.

The Han Solo "I Know That Laugh" Award for Most Humorous Fanfic

The 7 of 9 "You Think in Such Small Terms" Award for Most Original Character

The Reginald Barclay "Strict Dress Code" Award for Most Original Story - This one needs a new character line.

The Boba Fett "No Disintegrations" Award for Most Spectacular Death

The Emperor Palpatine's Highest Honor for Overall Best Fanfic

The Mr. Spock "You Are Most Illogical" Award for Most Fucked-up Fanfic - Contributed by SQ.

The Mark Sheppard "Imperial Phoenix" Award for Best Denizen-based Fanfic - Mark started the denizen fic craze with Imperial Phoenix. With Mark's permission, of course.

The following are some I've been mulling over:

The Odo/Quark Headbutting Award for Best Rivalry (or something) - For characters that play off each other really well.

The Constable Odo "Rom is an Idiot" Award for Dumbest Idea, Villain or Tactic - Though this would qualify more as a Rusty Transport Award.

The Enterprise Crew Award for Best Ensemble Cast - Probably'd fit more with denizen fics.

I've considered changing some other character lines and quotes as well. Thoughts, comments, concerns?

Perhaps, but Kirk was already used for the Lifetime Achievement Award a couple years back.

Looks Alright to me... but then again, since my award suggestion made it in... I'm not one to complain.

How about the "Well its not Kevin J. Anderson" Award for Most Original Story.

Because, well, lets face it, when was the last time he wrote something original.

KJA does not deserve the honor of being insulted in the GSD awards.

Well There's a budding relationship in that wonderfully written fanfic "Escape From San Francisco" However, there have been no nominations due to its lack of popularity, which stems from a lack of quality, which can be directed at the author's writing style, which includes several tranquilized monkeys, delicious Teriyaki sauce, and an intricate pulley system.

youre thinking of gnome Hunter,

Unfortunately for Gnome hunter, recent events that are taking place in "how Stravo Got His groove Back" too closely mirror what I was going to do, so in the interest of uniqueness and idividuality I scrapped the latest chapter AGAIn and its now set back about a week, possibly further depending on how many more Ducks games I decide to go to before Christmas

Perhaps we should be splitting the GSDAs into two parts: the Golden Stardestroyer Awards, for good fanfics, and the Rusty Galaxy Awards, for bad fanfics...
