Welcome welcome welcome! I'm here to announce a future event, coming to you at the end of July/start of August (dates to be decided)
This event will have all the glitz and glam of the Oscars, without any of the inevitable cancellation of winners.
As this event is entering its planning stage (ie has been on my mind for a few weeks), I welcome all category suggestions! I have a few in mind and will update the list below as we go, some categories will be via private vote, others will be based on game statistics. I'm keeping it to lighthearted categories.
Nominations in each category will happen at a later date, probably late June, with PM voting open for a month or so.
It would also be awesome to run some special exciting games around that time, but it's aaaages away yet.
