Gimkit awards 2025- Current plans + Community updates

Goodness, I have a lot of work.

Mind you, we’re not staff, this is not official, in the sense of it being like legally aphiliated with gimkit. This is a community ran event that has approval from staff and will have rewards given by staff (which we cannot disclose, but will likely look similar to last year). I don’t necessarily think anyone thinks this is a official gimkit event, but I’d rather be safe then sorry.

Community engagement is, surprisingly, really good for the community!

There will be a nominations phase where we let people say who they want in each category, then anyone with more then a set amount of nominations will get into the final vote, which will decide who wins. There are no losers to the gimkit awards, because you’re all terrific. Except that guy who keeps impersonating my friends, hate that guy.

Submissions don’t really exist. Anything that has ever been made, and any person who is in the community can win. Well, except for our nominees and winners last year, but I don’t have that list off the top of my head, so you’ll just have to wait.

I believe we gave out prizes to everyone in the winning groups, or at least, everyone who we could reach out to. Some people got left out, and I DEEPLY apologize for that. We could only really do so much last year.

Aggressive sarcasm isn’t particularly welcome here, please refrain from it.

Hey, public service announcement, this is advertising. Which we will disqualify you for.
Yes, saying ‘oh, man, I’ll never win’ is exactly how you get the pitty vote, and I don’t find it to be something you should do. Please, refrain. Yes, this means all of you.
I see all of you doing it. I’ll make a list of names to disqualify if I need to.

Absolutely, but I’ll probably only share it from people who forfeit their ability to win via disqualification, just because it’s kinda rigged to put out fanart made by someone who can win.

Again, you don’t get entered, you/your map gets nominated.

Folks, this is a community wide event! Just because you need discord to get onto team gimkit awards doesn’t mean you can’t participate lol. The team is just for helping make the event happen, it’s not a list of people who you can vote on or something.
Also, a reminder that we will have several follow up posts proving more info about the 2025 gimkit awards as we get it, and that we will have the voting posted here along with on the discord (and maybe a few other platforms???)

Possibly. I can’t confirm nor deny, because I’m not 100% sure on the lineup for categories quite yet, and it’s possible that I’ll have a separate vote here in a couple months (aka maybe in like February) about which categories y’all want for the gimkit awards. That’s not confirmed though, just an idea I’m throwing out there on the spot.

Blackhole is completely gone from the gimkit community. Sorry that I had to break it to you.

Did y’all all collectively forget that I posted new information for y’all… several times last year…? Like, we had an even 50/50 split for topics on the gimit awards from both of us, but blackhole deleted basically all of them. Sorry, semantics.

“A woman never reveals her secrets…”

I’ve always had access, posted several topic here before. Blackhole just deleted them, which honestly is kinda unfortunate because a lot of the information that was there would help y’all out.

Okay! I think that’s everyone replied to? At least, all the immediately important questions.

Thank God lol. I’ve been cooking a game recently and I think it’ll live up to Gimkit Awards standards when it’s done, but I was unsure whether or not I could participate because I can’t use Discord.

^ This will probably be seen as advertising, so I would recommend deleting your post

I simply must clarify that this is false. He was sarcastic and aggressive in his approach at a rather sad excuse for an answer, which I feel a need to condemn. Yellow over there had a good point, but a poor approach.

I will be flagging anything that continues this conversation.

Now, please, respectfully, let’s forget about all of that and simply let me try to answer some questions. It doesn’t matter if the answers seem obvious, they are questions, they are someone’s humble request for more knowledge on the topic, and I am inclined to indulge them with any information I can share. Thank you.

It’s all good :slight_smile:
I wouldn’t want anyone to get disqualified without knowing why.


@unstable is this event being hosted on the wixsite as well? Just curious.

This topic is temporarily closed for at least 4 hours due to a large number of community flags.

Flags were cleared. Please don’t go off topic again, as action had been taken already.

Unstable can’t type for some reason. Give him a second.

We have a team, no other major host. I’m just kinda the big face on the forums because we are far too lazy to get anyone else the ability to post here.

Somewhat, most likely. We might not be doing a google forms, to say the very least, but that’s something we’re still talking about.

If we aren’t using Forms, then what else could we use?

We’re toying with a few other ideas, one big one is that our vote counting guy is talking about making a website just for this. Again, not going to confirm it yet, because it’s not in my rights to confirm that yet.

actually, most of those off topic posts are still deliberate

no one is accidentally making a forum post

going to be as polite as possible
I directly condemned this behavior.
No, not what you’re talking about, no, you talking about the behaviour just makes the situation worse then it actually is.
Calm down. Sit down. Don’t bring it up.
The only off topic post right now is yours.

Next question.

So this is going to happen annually now?
Is the voting criteria going to change at all or is it going to stay the same for ease?
