VGFacts Awards 2018! - Kakariko Kid - 03-18-2018
Ladies and gentlemen! Boys and girls! Gamers of all ages! Get ready for another yearly spectacle.........
VGFacts Awards 2018!
Have you ever dreamed of receiving an Oscar, Emmy, Heisman trophy, Stanley Cup, Pulitzer, or Nobel Prize?
This is better! There's no monetary value and worldwide fame is not included!
Have you seen a trivia that you find very interesting and it stands out among others? Has someone posted about a day that went so well that Ice Cube would be jealous? Here's your chance to nominate and vote.
Although we're 2 months behind last year's schedule, I don't want to rush it (plus we all have classes, work, adulting, etc):
March 18th to April 1st
Submit and debate ideas for awards categories
Submit your ideas publically on this thread
April 1st to April 15th
Submit your nominees for the selected categories
Submit your nominations, as well as your reasons why, to me via Private Message
April 15th to April 29th
Vote for your favourite choice
Voting is done by sending me your choices via Private Mesage
Like the previous 2 years, voting will follow the preferential ballot system, which I will explain below in the spoiler-tags.
All votes received and any other related data will be shared with two other members of the forum for cross-examination.

Oh man... is that time of the year again? I still remenber last year's awards like it was yesterday!
Good to see someone has taken upon the mantle. And good luck to those who get nominated!
RE: VGFacts Awards 2018! - ZpaceJ0ck0 - 03-19-2018
I'll like to add the "best history behind the username" category.

RE: VGFacts Awards 2018! - Kakariko Kid - 03-19-2018
Not a bad idea. It might be a one time deal for now as not many new members are active in the forums.
RE: VGFacts Awards 2018! - SERIOUSLY THOUGH - 03-19-2018
A massive thank you to Kakariko for picking up the flame of the VGFA !
RE: VGFacts Awards 2018! - CLXcool - 03-19-2018
This is going to be good.
RE: VGFacts Awards 2018! - Kakariko Kid - 03-26-2018
We're a week in with one week left for category suggestions and discussion!
RE: VGFacts Awards 2018! - ZpaceJ0ck0 - 03-28-2018
Can I submit another category?
RE: VGFacts Awards 2018! - Kakariko Kid - 03-28-2018
Sure

Best non-gaming trivia.
RE: VGFacts Awards 2018! - The Table Destroyer - 04-01-2018
Not that I am desperate for a nomination,but i did not do really anything to get nominated...
I can´t nominate myself of course, that would be against the principle of the awards!
Suggested category:
The weirdest music taste.
RE: VGFacts Awards 2018! - Kakariko Kid - 04-01-2018
Interesting. It depends on one's own definition of weird, but let's do it.

Get it? Probably not. So,that...counts? I really don´t know, but we really need to find a definition.

I get it. I think it'll be interesting to let someone be nominated for swinging genres or for having a taste for a particular genre that someone finds "weird". It's all for fun anyways.
