There are now winners. And losers.
Predictions?

I believe the results are unpredictable but uncontroversial. There's only one category (out of sixteen) where the winning film received less raw votes than a runner up.
Three nominees received zero votes. Surprisingly (to me), none of them were in the Short Film category.

I made the best case for Best Picture I could. If I was unpersuasive, c'est l'internet.

I'm ready to announce the winners because they sooner they get announced, the sooner I can go back to sleep.
That is to say, the winners announcement chat might start early. Like in an hour or two. Or maybe even right now, lol.

Alright, I'm in chat now with five other people. If at least another four show up, I'm gonna start announcing winners!

I said to myself I would watch whatever won best picture, and that is what I'll do.
The inaugural retrospots, a brilliant success. Thanks to the organizers.
