So we're making some changes to the way that we run awards, namely by having nominations open all year round so that people are less likely to forget about things and don't miss out if they only play February-September, for example. Nominations can be submitted here.
The award categories are mostly the same as last year, but I've optimistically added a general 'best turbo performance' award (so please can we run a few turbos this year lol). If there's an award category that you think is missing from this list, add a comment to this thread and we can talk about adding it at any stage in the year. It's worth noting that general 'best player'-type awards have been left out intentionally because it's hard to judge those based solely on 2021 and because it can overlook, for example, people who don't have time to play very often or who only play at the start of the year.
There's also something called 'I'd like to thank...', which is a place for you to thank game mods, hero players/replacements, tech team, whoever you want for cool things they've done for the community or for you personally. An example of something that inspired this category is that time when I posted a lazy plaintext flavourless EoD post in Wolf 359 (I was just in a rush dw) and Talon a) messaged me to make sure I was okay and b) then went and wrote and formatted a spectacular EoD post, despite having no idea what was going on, in the style I'd been using.
This won't culminate in an actual vote/award but I'm aiming to compile a list of these to post when the next awards season rolls around and the goal is for it to be hella wholesome.
Any questions post them here!
