Quote from: cat on Mon 06/11/2023 12:07:39We considered various options for replacing the ceremony:
- IRC only, as in the good old times
- Chat only, but using Discord
- A discord voice call with a shared powerpoint presentation
- No ceremony at all, the result is just posted in the thread
I don't play as many AGS games these days, so feel free to ignore me. I suspect this idea has been considered and dismissed. But if a goal of the awards is to draw attention to the best games made in the engine, perhaps the ceremony should be something anyone can attend/re-watch without having to downloading the (brilliantly put together and obviously a huge amount of work) client. Why not a livestream on twitch/YouTube that nominees could share among their followers on social media?
EDIT: Yes, unsurprisingly you've thought this through! I'm sorry - I had missed that the recent ceremonies had been streamed as well.
