Vote In The O Music Awards: From Digital Geniuses To Favorite Musical Cats

O-music-awardsVoting has begun for the O Music Awards with the opportunity to nominate wild card contenders for the Awards' cutting edge mix of categories. Open nominations continue through May 21st with a 24-hour livestreamed awards ceremony and party taking place June 19th.

The O Music Awards offer a typically eclectic array of contenders. Some nominations still have room for nominees and you can vote for those through Tuesday using a complicated system of hashtags and hand gestures.

You can log-in to vote using Facebook or Twitter and it sounds like you've got a lot of work to do:

"You’ll be limited to 50 votes per day across all categories, but you can increase this up to 1,000 votes per day by sharing your Super Fan Page link with friends and having them vote through your profile page on one of your top picks. Each of these votes counts towards the nominee pick as a double vote and gets the Super Fan page used double points towards increasing the Super Fan’s voting allotment."
