KIA2 Game Of The Year Award Proposed Categories
posted ago by DomitiusOfMassilia [M] ago by DomitiusOfMassilia +46 / -0

So, moving forward on this GOTY system, I'm proposing the below categories.

To see which categories you are all interested in, if you chose to participate, I'd like you to state in a new comment below which categories you approve of, which categories you would like to remove. Any response is welcome, but if you would like to be simple, an aye or nay after the name of a category will work fine.

If you would like to make a new category, reply directly to the post in a new comment. I'll try to add it to the list.

If someone has proposed a new category in the comment section, and you would like to approve or reject it. Reply to that category proposal stating your approval or rejection. Again, Aye or Nay are fine.

I will tabulate the proposed categories both here and on Reddit. The minimum for a category to be included in our GOTY considerations will be at least 12 more ayes than nays (since the electoral body will be of 12 electors). Primarily, we will need at least 12 people to care.

I don't intend to be too strict about the categories as they are defined, I want the electors to basically suss out what should or shouldn't be given the merit/demerit. Even if a game is not from 2020 because the genera has turned to shit, I wouldn't mind if the electors decided that's good enough. It's not about what is "objectively" best. Objective value does not exist (fuck you Marx), but what matters is that we make a recommendation to bring attention to good quality products... and to bring infamy against the morons occupying our hobby as a skin-suit.

We're not voting for electors yet, but if you think you might want to do it, you should start thinking about it now. You'll have to cast votes on these categories.

I'm keeping track of the voting record if it gets confusing. Ask me if you want to audit your yays & nays.
