The final ballots phase for this year's Dankies is now underway. Click here to make your nominations.
The soapcentral.com Awards, known affectionately as The Dankies after soapcentral.com founder Dan Kroll, honor the best of the best of soaps. Unlike other awards, all of the winners and nominees are selected by actual soap fans.
In the fall of each year, soapcentral.com visitors are asked to nominate their choices in a variety of categories, including Favorite Character and Outstanding Lead Actress. Several weeks later, the nominees with the most nominations are placed on a final ballot. Voters are then asked to cast their votes again -- this time having to choose one of the finalists in each category. At the conclusion of voting, the winners in each category are announced.
From there, each of the winners moves to an all-soaps ballot. Each of the other soaps' winners in a given category will compete against each other to determine the best of the soaps for that year. So, for example, the Favorite Character winners from all of the soaps will battle it out for the top prize.
