Categories:
Year-End Awards
Map of the Year
The foundry does their own version of this which is based on fan reception. The DoomYoshi Award for Map of the Year is a closed award, there is no public voting or nomination. I will decide who deserves the award based on my own arbitrary standards (as opposed to your arbitrary standards).
You can now see the nominations.
New Player of the Year
This award has open nominations, and a poll. Things one should incorporate into the scoring scheme are: skill at various settings, contribution to fora, contributions to the Club.
See the Thread.
Citizen of the Year
Closed Nominations, but this year it includes a poll.

Mafioso of the Year
Open Nominations. Two Categories of Awards and a separate nominations only category. One category is people's choice for best contributor, one is people's choice for best player. See the topic here.
2013 Nominations are already being accepted.
Two Polls for 2012:
Category One
Category Two
Forum-Goer of the Year
NOTE: 2012 Awards are Abandoned, but 2013 will come back with a vengeance!
Nominations are now being accepted for 2013.
Tournament Awards
The CC-Run tournament awards may not run this year. If they do (case A), this will be a small category, with winners of those automatically getting a nomination. If they don't (case B), this will be one of the largest categories (probably 5-10 awards handed out) and will supplant those awards. This is for 2012. For 2013, I will run a steady-going nomination sheet, so that people don't have to try and remember tournaments from January. In case A, it will be a closed award. In case B, it will be open nomination and (hopefully) juried awarding.
