Its a win-win for all. Our site hopes to introduce a new system of rating and pricing video games. I think we are all outraged with the credit the local video store offers. Its time for an alternative to this approach. Considering the Multi Billion dollar market video games have become the potential for savings and profit is huge. Please Nominate http://www.myzwap.com for "Best Business Model" Thanks Happy Holidays Mike, Thanks for your work and all involved. Its a win-win for all.

The official rules state that once initial nominations close, the committee will choose 5 finalists for each category, "based on the quantity, quality and breadth of submissions received". As a nomination only requires a domain name to be posted, i see now way for your committee to judge the quality of the submissions received. In regards the breath of submissions, bar IP tracking, what are you guys planning on doing, using supernatural powers to determine breadth? As someone who is 'competing' to become a finalist - transparency would be most welcome. Michael,
