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)

The Inaugral FoGademy Awards! 

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. 

Category List:

Best SHEEPer
Best Reveal [overall, by game type] 
Most Hilarious MSPaint [description, paint, reveal] 
Most Prolific Tournament Voter
Best Post
Funniest Moment
Best Villager
Best Wolf 
Best Codenames Team [tournament, general] 
Best New Game Format

The Mid Table Mediocrity Award for The Most Average Player
Most Exciting Rivalry

In Memorium - the players we lost in The Great Boards Migration


Pop your suggestions here and I'll add them, or PM me if you'd rather!

How about the winner of the most wooden spoons.
Or an award for mid table mediocrity: the person who has finished nearest the middle of the leaderboard most often wins.

Do we not need categories where there's some competition Tongue

Half the fun of these games is the interaction during reveals. I'm not sure how entirely, but it would good to catch that too. For example...

Could be some sort of "Best Newcomer" Awards, i.e. the ones that did not come from Boards! There are a few.

What about Awards relating to the Chain Games - this is a new area that not exist in the Boards Forum Games?

Thinking about Chain Games, and a couple of people there who don't really engage with the other areas of this site, made me think that links to this thread should be placed in the various sub-forums, so that more people are aware of it. It might also encourage our quieter members to engage more with some of the other games.

Great ideas, I'll throw it up in a few places over the weekend, thanks Smile
