User blog:ClarentBloodArthur/Game Idea Wiki Awards 2016 News Update 2

Just a quick recent update regarding GIWA 2016 (along with new bits and pieces) I announce that two new awards categories (Original Game Idea of the Year and Fanmade Game Idea of Year) will make their debuts this December when GIWA 2016 begins.

Also, just so you don't forget, choosing nominees for the awards will start no earlier than December 1st, GIWA 2016 will begin on December 10th and voting will commence until the 24th December where by Christmas Day, the winners of each nomination category will be announced. Also, if you feel that there is something that needs to be included in this year's GIWA, do not hesitate to comment down your suggestions below, for all opinions are welcome (unless they are rude and unbecoming).

So without further ado, here is an updated list of confirmed nomination categories that will be appearing in GIWA 2016 so far:


 * Writer of the Year


 * Breakout Writer of the Year


 * Game Idea of the Year


 * Fighting Game Idea of the Year


 * Hack and Slash Game Idea of the Year


 * Game Idea Wiki Classic Game Idea of the Year
 * Original Game Idea of the Year (NEW)
 * Fanmade Game Idea of the Year (NEW)


 * Game Idea Box Art/Game Title of the Year  

Also, here are the rules about GIWA 2016:


 * All game idea nominations made before 5th December 2016 qualify to enter.


 * All game ideas made after 5th December 2016 will not be able to enter as a nomination for GIWA 2016, but will be eligible to be selected for next year's GIWA.


 * All game idea nominations must have the category to enter into one of the category award sections. For example: Street Fighter V Outrage has the 'Fighting' category in its page so it can be selected for the 'Fighting Game Idea of the Year' category.


 * If your game idea does not have the category in its page whilst you nominate it for that specific award, then it is unable to be selected.


 * It isn't necessary for your game idea to have a VG template in its page, whether you use it to make your game idea look good is up to you. On the other hand though, it is a necessity for your game idea to be as presentable and detailed as can be. If it looks like it is half-finished or not detailed enough, then the game idea cannot be nominated.

So there you have it everyone. But if you have any questions regarding the rules and the award categories, as I've mentioned above, do not hesitate to comment below. In the meantime, make many of your game ideas look so awesome and detailed, it will make a critic's head explode with how amazing it is.

Auf Wiedersehen~♪
