No, this is not strictly a "contest" in that you don't win anything, and it wouldn't work here as a poll because it has so many different categories, but why not?

I'd prefer it if you just posted your response here in the thread, because it makes tallying everything up a lot easier than an e-mail system would be. As for how long this pull will run, I'm perfectly willing tot ake suggestions on that.

Rules are, it must be a 2004 release according to yojoe.com, even though technically VvV Wave 6 is already out in stores. The voting is open-ended, but try not to vote for off-the-wall figures just because you can. And, of course, be polite and all that jazz. Anyway, on to the categories!
