I won't be able to make it, so someone will have to take Best Drama. Have a great time, everyone!

I can make it if I rework my schedule a little. I may have to miss the first twenty minutes or so, but I'll be there for the rest.

This *is* my happily ever after.

I had another thing scheduled that day... but it was cancelled, so I'll be able to make it!  I can present a category or two; just let me know where you need me. PJ

Saw you popped in Iolan  . The Kerths are held in #kerthawards and #kerthchat. The ceremony takes place in #kerthawards - the only people who can talk in there are the presenters etc. Everyone else just watches. The cheering and congratulations and assorted other celebrating [and occasional threatening if one of the presenters takes too long to open the envelope] goes on in #kerthchat. Karen usually opens the channels well beforehand so... Carol

Presenting is easy, Iolan. The techy people will open a dialogue box with you telling you the winner is. I believe that occurs before you give the list of nominees. Usually you would want to have something prepared to say - what the category is and then who the nominees (along with their story) is. Writing it ahead of time and cutting and pasting can help prevent a case of "butterflies".

Actually, the timing is that the winner is given during or after the presenter gives the list of nominees. Think of a presenter at a televised awards show. They give their speech with the list of nominees, then opening (or struggling with) the envelope. Just keep an eye out for that flashing window.  I'd definitely recommend writing your presentation speech before hand, and then copy/pasting. That way there's no stumbling, and the show moves along smoothly and quickly. Oh, and it's 6pm EDT. I'm fairly sure we're in Daylight Saving Time.

Oh, and it's 6pm EDT. I'm fairly sure we're in Daylight Saving Time. Yes, we are. Thanks, Karen. I corrected it! Another thing I'd recommend about presenting. Last year the window with the winner had already closed and I got a sudden case of butterflies and was sure I'd forgotten the winner. I hadn't, but it gave me a scare. So I'd suggest writing it down. But most folks probably wouldn't forget.
