<summary><b>Q: Are there 'extra points' when someone else nominates me vs. self nomination? </b></summary>

A: There are no 'extra points' whether you self-nominate or if someone else suggests your name (and then you are contacted by the Awards committee to fill out the self-nomination form). Regardless of the approach, all candidates must eventually fill out the self-nomination form and state why they are deserving candidates for the award. So, we encourage you to nominate yourself.
