Remember, if it doesn't release or get received by backers until 2015, it's not eligible.

Thank you everyone for your nominations!!!
Just note if you pick 3-10 decks your first nomination will be the one that counts.
Also if the deck is yet to be released, the vote can only count if it is released in 2014.

I really hope it makes it by the end of the year so you can be in the running for this award.  That and It would mean we would have them that much sooner..  ;)  A little selfish, I know, but what can I say? :t11:

I'm torn between Hotcakes and Clipped Wings bird-themed jokers, but I think I have to nominate the Clipped Wings jokers.

While I appreciate this nomination I think it might need to get pulled from the running. While I think the joker from the 52 + Joker deck is awesome, I did not design it. I only redrew a very old joker design from a antique deck that the club has used for the logo for a very long time.

While it's understood that you were working with an older design, you did make changes to that design to update it for this deck.  Another designer might have done it differently, for better or worse, so your fingerprint is indeed on that work.  Judging from the old club logo and how your joker looks, I'd say that you made enough changes that you can call it your own, at least in part.

I'll tell you what - you can split credit with 52+Joker.  If you know the name of the original designer, tell me and I'll add it to the nomination.  It's too good of a joker to not be nominated and it is indeed in a 2014 deck.

No, but the Blue deck shipped in 2013, whereas the red was in January 2014.

Seconded!
Brilliant!

I'm going to assume you're seconding Four Points and not one of the other unseconded nominations...  :))

If you agreed that the red Bicycle Emperor deck should have been nominated, why didn't you second it!?  You, in effect, would have gotten that deck onto this list to be voted on!  You're twelve days too late!
