Sometimes there are worthwhile works that don't make it into the
Ursa's Recommended Anthropomorphic List ... for whatever reason
(maybe the furries who knew, forgot to email the Ursa awards).
Would like to suggest that the Ursa awards have aNotable Works from Past Years
category.(perhaps have the category every 2 or 3 years?)

I think it is a travesty what College Humor did to the Ursa Major Awards. I

This is not the first time that something has been nominated and won that one
wonders if it truly represents the furry fandom. Avatar won for best picture.

I was just noticing that when it comes to the awards, many of them seem to go
to non-furs. Such categories as:
Best Motion Picture
Best Dramatic Series or Short Work

Fred (et al):
MWFF may just be out of luck this time around, unfortunately. I agree with Fred

seen. But I think it also behooves the artists themselves to point out that

I notice a Bill Thomas mentioned as helping with "Furtherance", too. Presumably
the same Bill?

[UMA-discussion] is "Circles: The Years Keep Rolling By" a 2014 publication or 2015 publication?

This sounds like the tactic used by Oscar contenders: Play for a week in Los
Angeles to qualify, then release nationwide in January/February after
nominations.

what Ursa list and Ursa awards it should be considered for)

Being a fan of bears in general the logo for the Ursa Major awards has always
