I’m probably going to nominate multiple rising stars.

I think a lot of those haven’t been done yet because it’s body of work for the year, and the years not done, but i generally think anyone involved heavily in the community should definitely at least nominate one person per body of work section.

Can I nominate someone to be my representative so they can nominate people on my behalf for different categories?

Similar, but for Modfather. I also have a Rising Star I’m evaluating.

I'm going to claim that I'm going to nominate a bunch of people, forget about it, and miss the deadline. Like I do every year.

I don't feel like I have a good sense of who should get nommed for what things.

Real talk?

If you think it should maybe be borderline nommed, nom it. One of the biggest problems last year was that there weren't a lot of entries for awards, so there wasn't enough competition to judge.

If there's a better person for the award, likely the judges will see that when they do the judging.

This is probably the best way to not get nommed for Paragon.

Oh sorry, I guess it could be either?

It could be nommed for both right?
I would antinom Best Setup for Jest, FWIW. The game was fun, the players had a blast, and it did exactly what I wanted it to do (MAXIMUM JESTERY CARNAGE).

It's not a good setup.

If someone thinks it's GOTY worthy, :shrug: but while it's a fun meme game I think there are way better options for best setup.

9/18 Oversoul Zaphkael viewtopic.php?p=11116902&user_select%5B ... #p11116902 In most games, I prefer minimalistic flavor. A dressing for a game of mafia. Zaphkael broke that preference. Project Arch featured wonderful flavor at every turn. The flavor in the role pms, day start posts, night start posts all added depth and robust complexity to the game. Advertised as bastard, the game featured some key information in the flavor. By including certain pieces of game information in the flavor, Zaphkael created a game within a game. But let's not overlook the flavor itself, which I think is integral to this scummy. The flavor set the game in a not-so distant, not so-unreal dystopian future after a war between national corporations. Zaph's story featured secret alliances, character development, and subtle world building that helped create an atmosphere different from many of the games recently run.

I'm kind of nthing Oversoul's nomination, but one thing I want to say about the flavor that I never see in any games is the day start pms. There was flavor in it. It was a little message that said "come to the meeting room" or something along those lines. Its such a small detail, but its something I have never seen a mod actually gone out of their way to do, and I really liked it.

Post of the Year
september 25 schadd _ Errantparabola post 247 in 1000 blank white cards there's just so much vibes coming out of the post. the clumsy phone screenshot. the concept. the timing. the Holistic nature by which it Encapsulates the game. the implications....

^I'm guessing post of the year?

I don't think it can be Kodak since it's not a mafia game.
