Australian Tumbleweeds Awards 2012 – Nominations now open

Nominations are now open in the Australian Tumbleweeds Awards 2012. Now in its 7th year, the Australian Tumbleweeds hails the failures (and occasional successes) of this nation’s comic talent.

Your online nominations form can be found here: https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/tumblies2012noms

This year we have decided to reduce the number of public-voted awards, and to introduce a new Special Awards category for exceptional under-achievement in the field of Australian comedy. You may suggest Special Awards or Special Award recipients as part of the nominations process. The Special Awards are in the gift of the judges and their decisions are final.

You have until midnight on Friday 14th December to nominate. Please make no more than 4 nominations in each category. Full rules and instructions can be found with the nominations form.

Voting will start on Sunday 16th December and close on Sunday 6th January 2013, with the winners announced on Australia Day.

As always, the official Twitter hashtag is #tumblies.
