Feudal Association: December 2008 Results (unofficial)

[luxken27]

Here are the (unofficial) results for the December 2008 term of the Feudal Association. There are still several categories with ties, and I do believe ties are broken...so I'm only going to list the categories that ended up without ties, and/or categories with a clear winner.

Interestingly enough, it appears the art had more decisive voting than the fiction.
