The problem with best newcomer is the definition of newcomer: forum registration date? number of completed games released? number of "proper" games released?

My interpretation of this would be who has made the best first game? In other words, a better title would be "Best First Game". Eligible would be any AGS game that is the first one ever released by an individual, whether a test game or a fully-fledged one.

Would a demo count as a first game?

And what counts as a first game? I have a credit for beta-testing and proof-reading, but I wouldn't think that would count as previous experience.

I would say so. Perhaps the award would be something like "most promising newcomer", in which case it wouldn't matter whether the game was a demo or a full game.

That's a good point. The nominee would have to be the person who contributes the bulk of the game - the artist or the person who does the scripting. It's not an easy one to pin down, so there would need to be some clear rules about who would qualify.

About the avatars.

Couldn't you just set them to a specific size when they are clicked on?
It would be nice as a last minute thing.

I can do it for you before to night.

LUniqueDan · Sat 05/03/2011 20:00:41

Group pix before the ceremony.

Well, my apologies for not being able to attend, but I'm very pleased that Operation: FORKLIFT managed to do so well! Now I just need to get people to play the damned thing!

And congratulations to all the other winners as well!

I made a recording of it. its 1.3GB. If anyone is interested I could upload it. I just don't know if youtube supports these lengths.

Didn't they change the time limit to 60 minutes lately?

Tabata · Sun 06/03/2011 12:17:10

I would propose, that the creators be awarded with a badge of honor for this successful live interactive â€œAGS-artâ€.

I'll hold my pic in loving memory for this very special night with lot's of beloved â€žpeopleâ€œ around and my bunny-classmates.

Peder 🚀 · Sun 06/03/2011 12:48:10

Damn... I totally forgot about this

. Looks like loads of people turned up using the program!
I assume this will be THE thing to do in the future too?

Here you have my present for those, who made the AGS-Awards-Ceremony possible, the way it happened.

Created and given by a groupie (with little skills, but lots of love) to

... Wyz, Dualnames, m0ds, bicilotti and JimReed (as named in the Readme).

Of course you are not obliged to ruin your signature with it, but these honour badges are here for you to show, how much I love and worship your work.

Edit:
Since ImageShack brings more and more problems, I uploaded the honour-medals elsewhere and replaced them here now.
