Title: GTM Awards 2015 - Voting closed!
Post by: cephalopod on December 20, 2015, 01:53:03 PM
GTM AWARDS 2015

That time is here again. Let's do this!
In the last year I've run this on a point system allowing honorable mentions to count for something, but this year, only 1 vote per category.
Votes are to be PMed to myself. You can vote for as many awards as you wish, it'd be great if you could vote for all.
No self-voting, and any obvious 'troll' votes in any field will result in the entire ballot being void, as per my own discretion.
Voting closes at 1PM UTC on 1st January 2016 - Closed!
17 Votes Received.

Yes, they all competed in fights and mostly lost. Do you need video proof?

Is "Best New Tournament Host" restricted to new members only, or is it just for anyone who hosted their first tournament this year?

I'm going with say latter.  Although nicsan got third last year, despite him hosting about 3 or 4 tourneys a two years prior.

Also, Lightning, do you mean tournaments that got the SBV thread in 2015, or when the signups thread got off the ground?
Title: Re: GTM Awards 2015 - Voting now open!
Post by: Lightning S. on December 21, 2015, 10:17:31 PM
Ones where the SBV thread was posted in 2015. I also didn't include any that expired.

Voting is officially closed but I probably won't have time to finish the counting for another hour or so, so if you haven't voted and want your opinion heard, do it quickly :)
