OK, subject discussed, and answers agreed upon.
1) The nomination form will contain 8 slots per category, as it did last year. That doesn't mean that you have to fill every slot -- we actually expect most people won't. But we see no reason to limit people to 5 noms/category, even with the lower number of eligible stories. Tha's why we trimmed the category list.
2) As for the descriptions, obviously this is a case where we can't anticipate every plotline. So we say, please use your own judgement.
If you want to nominate a story about Lucy and Dan (or Martha and Jonathan, or Perry and Alice, or ...) in the Relationship category, go for it! I wouldn't take the category description as 100% firm in this case, as it's one we couldn't really anticipate.
Hope that helps!
