HOUSTON – Adult industry insiders who have not yet registered their choices for fifth-annual YNOT Awards winners have only days left to make sure their votes are counted. The virtual ballot box closes Aug. 26 at precisely midnight PST.

“Every year, without fail, after voting is over we get some emails from people asking how they can vote, or sometimes even asking how they can be included as a nominee,” said Jay Kopita, producer and host of the YNOT Awards and vice president of sales for YNOT Group LLC. “We pass those emails around the office and take turns pointing and laughing.

“Seriously though, please don’t be one of those people,” he continued. “Make sure you get your votes in by the 26th.”

Although voting is still in progress, Kopita said this year’s celebration, presented by Diamond Sponsor Fleshlight and its popular affiliate program FNCash, is shaping up to be the most popular YNOT Awards event to date. All but three dinner tables have been claimed, and live-cam giant PussyCash recently signed on as a Gold Sponsor. Pussycash joins Brazzers, FriendFinder Networks, EroAdvertising, Live Cam Awards, w2mobile, Traffic Junky, Affil4You, Studio 20 and PlugRush in sponsoring the event.

The YNOT Awards gala, hosted by Kopita and co-hosted by Jo “Kiwigirl” Merlone of KiwiSourcing.com, is an official event of The European Summit. Companies and individuals who have not purchased a dinner reservation may still attend the awards show in Prague, as there will be plenty of free viewing space at the historic Mayakovsky Hall venue. Attendees should plan to arrive by 6:30 p.m. and are encouraged to dress appropriately for the celebration.

Those wishing to vote should secure a YNOT ID account by registering at YNOTid.com and then submitting an application to vote. All voters are vetted as industry members before being allowed access to the ballot. Once approved, the YNOT ID account can be used to log in at YNOTawards.com and cast votes in each category.
