It has in the past - here's hoping we have it for 2009 as well. Lots of amazing work displayed. It's always tough narrowing it down to a select few to vote for.

I'm guessing Abel has been too busy to address it.

And the stupid software keeps changing POY to Poy .. it doesn't like it to be all caps if its the first word of the title. That's stupid.

I'm up for it, I think I'll actually submit this year, but I enjoyed seeing and voting on everyone's work last year.

I'm just speculating here, but I think as forum membership and participation has grown, the POY contest has gotten to be more and more work for Abel. It would be one thing if vBulletin (or an add-on) could add support for automating the contest, but I imagine the manual process of setting up the galleries and voting threads like Abel did last year was a ton of work.
