Gimkit awards 2025- Categories, Categories, Categories

ehhh… Like, that’d work for the forums, but this isn’t a forums exclusive event. I’ll think on it for the people category, but almost certainly not, sorry.

I feel like that would cause a ton of drama and depression for little kiddos.

Oh absolutely, wasn’t even thinking about that. I’m sure that a lot of people were bitter about who won and who didn’t last year, and that would magnify things to an unholy extent. No reason to cause a fight if we don’t have to.

Single artwork is kinda meh. I wouldn’t imagine we’d get enough nominations for some art. I’d actually think it would be a statistical nightmare for the team with people potentially nominating hundreds of art pieces :face_with_spiral_eyes:

Best platformer is just a weird category specifically for this year’s awards simply due to their exclusivity. If we added the category, we may not have enough nominations for the individual categories. It would be more of a “pay to win” category I suppose? It just doesn’t seem fair imo.

It would also work, not just for the forums, but also the Discord (Being Helpful to new players, helping them with information that they might not have checked elsewhere for) Wiki (Fandom or Miraheze) (Because that’s literally its purpose)

'Twas already the plan, you should go check out our list of last year’s categories in the post itself. I’d quote it rn, but I genuinely just don’t want to, sorry.

But that’s my point. By seperating top-down and platformer, you eliminate it from being pay-to-win.

Not really. Top-down, anyone can make. Platformer’s only for season ticket users.

No, you magnify it tenfold. Platformer itself is pay to win for the gimkit awards, and making it separate just means that the platformers have a second chance to win, aka just doubling down instead of trying to find a solution.

Platformers will still have been a paid feature for longer then they’ve been free by the time the awards start in april.

I believe that would be too late for most people to make something decent by the nominations window.

So is the custom Gim idea approved?

I will approve/deny if someone can just reply to it for me, I’m not very smart so I probably would look at the wrong one otherwise i’d find it myself.

No, it fits more into the Fanartist category.
