Update (July 12, 2013):
Thanks for your nominations! Voting is now open for the 2013 Dragon Slayer Awards.
At GameSkinny, we pride ourselves on having real content from real gamers. In keeping with this we are proud to announce the 2nd Annual Dragon Slayer Awards, brought to you by our friends at Guild Launch… And you.
That’s right: you. Without your opinion, no one is getting any awards.
We’re totally serious.
What are the Dragon Slayer Awards?
This ain’t your “normal” ‘only famous people and big name companies/games win‘ awards show. The Dragon Slayer Awards are 100% user nominated and user voted. They focus on community managers, community builders and, most importantly, the community members (see, there’s you again) of gaming.
How does it work?
Below are the 11 award categories, all are open and ready for nominations. Make your nomination(s) in the comments section below by the end of June. Once we have compiled all the nominations the real fun begins – voting. Voting runs from early July, 2013 through September 2nd, 2013.
Why should you nominate (and then vote)?
Because you care – ok maybe you don’t, but gosh darn it we need you to. The underdog needs you to. The game that had crazy hype and totally fell on its face needs you to. The unsung hero who is always there for his/her community but never gets recognized needs you to.
So, without further ado, here are the categories:
2013 Dragon Slayer Awards Categories
- Notable Gaming Comic
- Notable Machinima or Video Series
- Hype Train Award
- Notable Gaming Personality
- Community Manager of the Year
- Most Dramatic Change
- Top Community Management Team
- Most Passionate Fan Base
- Notable Kickstarter of The Year
- Best Gaming Team, Guild or Clan
- Best Gaming Innovation
Did we convince you? Good; leave a comment with your nominations and keep an eye out for more details and voting links.
The unsung hero is counting on you.
