The votes for the 2003 Member Choice Awards have now been counted and it's time to announce the results.
But before I reveal the winners, I'd like to give a quick thanks to everyone who voted - obviously the awards couldn't have taken place without the participation of members of the site, and I'm grateful to everyone who took the time to register their votes.
Although we started with 19 categories, one category "Best Options Broker" received too few nominations, and one category "Best Educational Trading Website" was voided because T2W won it! Thanks for the votes, but the intention was never to create a category to give the ourselves an award :cheesy:
Please note: We're very pleased with the level of participation considering this was our first awards programme, but when viewing the results please bear in mind that the total number of votes in each category were fairly low (<50) and that some categories received fewer votes than others, and therefore may not be wholly representative of the site.
