| Third Annual GNamer Forum Awards, 2015 Edition!Hello and welcome! A slightly earlier than normal start, perhaps, but I'm going out of the county for New Year, so here we are! ![Dance](/users/4111/31/13/97/smiles/3920004554.gif) As last year, the results will start on the 19th.

| Hooray, it's this thing again! ![Grin](https://2img.net/i/fa/i/smiles/icon_biggrin.png) Always a delight. I'm going to propose a radical suggestion: scotching the Alternate Account award. They were brilliant in 2013, took a back seat in 2014, and I think they made about 5 posts amongst them in 2015. It doesn't seem right. (Of course, people can vote for Reggie as most-missed forumite if they so wish!) On the other hand, we've got a choice of several great newbies to vote for this time around! |

| Nice to see Zero take over this year for the rewards,
I'll better start having a think, also nice to see more stuff in the game awards section as I remember last year something (maybe shovel knight) missed out but now with more things, some other games might get there time to shine. |

| Yay! These are always fun. Agreed with balls man on the alt account front. In its place, perhaps a vote for best piece on Gintendo? |

That is partially due to the fact that Monty may have misplaced his login details and couldn't be bothered going through password recovery. Or so I've heard. Ahem. But yeah, in agreement with this! It'd be a bit of a struggle voting for this category - maybe you've got an idea for a suitable replacement, Zero? Your call, as votemaster! Something Gintendo/Podcast related maybe? Or maybe something more forum-centric to replace the forum-centric category? Hyped for this though. I missed a fair chunk of the latter half of 2014, so definitely looking forward to getting stuck into this vote here. |

| The Nintendo games are going to be a bugger though, as I didn't buy Splatoon and didn't enjoy SMM. Don't suppose we're allowed to use the MK8 and SSBU DLCs, are we...? |

| Surely you'll just vote XCX, Kirby and something else Balla like Yoshi for instance.
I found 3DS hard as I played hardly anything on it and not much came out for it either. |

| I'd argue (and already have to Zero!) that there doesn't need to be a replacement. There are lots of awards, including an additional one under the gaming column: they could probably do with being slimmed down.
That said, no objection to a Funniest Forumite Post! I wouldn't want a Gintendo based award - that's definitely its own thing nowadays. May as well have a "Best GNamer Poster on SONM Award" (which O_R would sweep). |

| That's fair. It is still exclusively GNAMER alumni writing there and there's no where else to do such a vote, but if people would prefer to keep it separate that's fine. |

| But it would only be one award the best thing on Gintendo in 2015 and Drunka is right it's only GNAMER alumni writing there & got to think of the 30views a month (according to the INTERNET) is likely from GNAMER alumni as well.
Also Game Based Awards slimmed down you mad Balla, I would of said it need more especially after last year and Shovel Knight and you bringing up DLC.
But hey it's Zero doing it this year and it's his awards, if Stu is back next and wants to do it a different again that's great.
I have sent my votes but if there is any new awards added, I can easily send over the win for that. |

I've always seen the forum awards as being about us and how great we all are as opposed to the games we love chatting about. As for Funniest Forumite Post, that's a belter of a category. Up for that! |

| My post was misinterpreted anyway (the slimming down referred to the awards as a whole), but I agree with Jay. When I introduced the games awards, they were definitely not meant to be the main event or anywhere close. |

| OK, some decisions, which will soon be reflected in the text of the top post. ![Thumbs Up!](/users/4111/31/13/97/smiles/2924871582.gif) 1) No DLC in any of the game votes - no Mario Kart 8 by the back door, no Plague Of Shadows, nothing of that kind. A game that was released in 2015 and enhanced by DLC in that same year counts fine. 2) No new category to replace the Alt Account one. If there are any further questions or things that need to be clarified, please don't hesitate to ask. ![Thumbs Up!](/users/4111/31/13/97/smiles/2924871582.gif) Two votes in so far! ![Grin](https://2img.net/i/fa/i/smiles/icon_biggrin.png) |

| I'm in the process of writing mine up and I have a query; we've got nontendo and multiplatform GOTY votes. Does this mean the Nontendo ones have to be games that were exclusive to one of the other BBBoPs? Or is the multiformat one all games, including Nintendo? |

| I've tentatively launched the first half of my results; there's every chance I'll go back and eddit/ add comments yet, plus I still have my games to do. Nonetheless, this should help you with your algorithms for the time being. |

Yes to both queries! Multiformat games can be on Nintendo systems, as long as they've also been on something else. ![Thumbs Up!](/users/4111/31/13/97/smiles/2924871582.gif) |
