Mafia Game Awards
​

Welcome to the first Mafia Game Awards! These awards are dedicated to the players of the Mafia Games who have been found deserving in the respective categories either for their gameplay or hosting.

The Mafia Game Awards will use a polling system and feature various categories. All categories, however, will generally follow the system described below.

Spoiler: Polling System

Part 1: Nomination

Nomination Round

• Time: 7 days.
• Each member nominates a maximum of four(4) names for each category.
• The nominees that are nominated will be regarded as official nominees for the voting rounds unless they wish to be excluded. Exclusion from the awards is only possible during the nomination round and at no later point. Furthermore, any exclusion counts for all categories.

Part 2: Voting

Voting Round 1

• Time: 5 days.
• Members can vote for 3 names out of all nominees. If there are less than 3 nominees, this voting round is skipped for the respective category.

Voting Round Final

• Time: 5 days.

The rules are still the same: you can only nominate up to four members for each category. You can't send us another nomination via PM if you have already made four nominations in the thread.
