SoCal 2005 choice awards

[Charoo]

I think that 2005 was a great smash year due to a lot of newcomers, and random upset everywhere. Also there was many tournament in socal for 2005, and this means that there was a lot of smash gonig on. These awards will be voted by socal smashers simply because well I don't think other people out of socal would know what really happen in socal haha. All you have to do is vote here, and I will tally up the score. I think the vote will be close by march 25 so I will be posting the champ combo's result, and the award choice also.

If you have problem letting other people see your vote then you can private message me or aim me at xuerarit. So let the voting begins!!!
