Nominations for the top one hundred speculative fiction works are still open at the nomination post; they'll be open for another 24 hours(ish).

I've uploaded a preliminary and very messy spreadsheet of the nominations to googledocs, if you want to browse the nominations in a different format - it's much easier to see what's already been nominated and who nominated it in the spreadsheet. And if someone else also nominated your favorite thing, it's easier to find out who and then find out what else they nominated. Basically it's a very large recs set!

Note that the spreadsheet is a first draft, containing just the information people gave me in their comments, so there will certainly be typos, creator names in different formats (surname-given name vs given name-surname), things missing creator names, names or titles missing accents or special characters, things categorized in the wrong media, etc. (Also I accidentally deleted a couple of nominator names and decided not to worry about it, so there are a couple of gaps there.)

I like to play with formulas and excel, so just for fun here are some preliminary stats, all from the version of this spreadsheet as of a couple of hours ago:

There have been 1194 nominations, out of which circa 850 different things have been nominated so far (not counting duplicate nominations).

Most frequently nominated single works/series: Avatar: The Last Airbender (12 times), The Lord of the Rings (10 times), Terry Pratchett's Discworld (10 times), and The X-Files (9 times).

Most frequently nominated creator: Diana Wynne Jones (27 times!), followed by Ursula K. LeGuin (22 times), Octavia Butler (17 times), and Terry Pratchett (15 times).

Of the 1100+ nominations: 387 are books, 284 are book series, 102 are live-action tv, 64 are live-action movies, 56 are anime, 51 are Western comics/graphic novels/webcomics, 40 are manga, 21 are short stories, and 20 are cartoons. The least represented mediums are art, short films, music videos, music/songs, plays, poems, fanvids, fanfiction, rpgs, board games, and video games (<20 nominations each).

I'm kind of tempted to say, everyone can have five more nominations in those less-represented categories (and any other unrepresented categories you think of), just because more music videos and poems and fanvids and things = more fun. (I had a great time watching all the linked youtube videos for the music and vids today while I was spreadsheeting - man, I always forget how long Thriller is.) But I dunno - what do you think?

ETA: Oh what the hell, let's go for it! You can have +5 additional nominations as long as they're for less-represented speculative fiction media: music (songs, albums, filk, music videos), fanworks (fanfic, fanvids, fanfilms, fanart), theater (plays, musicals), poetry, games (video, rpg, card, board), short films, art (paintings, fanart, digital art), or any medium that's not currently represented on the spreadsheet at all. Please add nominations back at the nomination post!
