Each year in February, we stop and take time to show our undying affection for those nearest and dearest to our hearts. We’re speaking, of course, about the Aggie Awards and the games we adore! (You thought we meant that other, overly-commercialized day of chocolates and flowers? Pfft. But don’t forget about your loved ones, too.)
Yes, it’s time once again for you AG readers to cast your votes for your favourite adventure games of the past calendar year. You’ve seen our nominee finalists, and probably second-guessed those to pieces. But now it’s time to stand up and be counted.
As always, only one vote per category is allowed. To make your choice, simply select the appropriate game from the drop-down list available for each award. If you wish to pass on certain categories, simply pick the "No answer" selection from the menu. There are two write-in votes for Best Character and Best Concept; if submitting an entry for these, please write the name of the character and/or brief description of the concept you’re nominating and the game in which each appears.
No ballot-stuffing permitted, as one submission per person is how voting works best. We also ask that you vote only for games you feel are deserving of victory. This is all just for fun, but spoiling votes just ruins the fun for everyone.
Voting will end on Monday, February 16th, and winners will be unveiled in our final Aggie Awards presentation over the course of three days, beginning February 18th. You don't have to participate, but some categories in the past have literally come down to a single vote making the difference. Besides, if you stay on the sidelines, you forfeit the right to complain.
So vote early, vote... well, once, and stick around to see how things all shake out.
