Heya, at the time of me typing this up there are still 30 open presentation spots out of a total of 60! That's not abnormal, but it's still a lot and I feel that maybe a post in this board would be more visible to newer people who might want to give it a shot! This is a thing we've been doing in this community for 11 years now, and it's a good opportunity to do something fun and silly with the people you work and talk with here in the wiki, forum, and chat.
If you have any questions, please let me know!
Here's the write-up copy/pasted right from the wiki page
Sign-ups for Award Presentations will open July 1st. Users will be allowed to present a maximum of four awards.
What are these presentations, you ask? Well, you get to reveal the results of the award you choose in some sort of digital medium, whether it is a written story (usually a narrative or an interview with a user or Mario series character), the tried and true summary (usually silly), the very popular comic style, a picture or series of images, split into multiple parts, or even a playable game, a song, or a combination of multiple forms. These can be serious or silly (though most people prefer the silly ones), so long as theyre relevant to the award at hand. Polls close on July 17th, so users should receive their results in their inbox on the forums some time between then and the 20th. Presentations will be due August 4th. There are no exceptions. Do not sign up for a presentation if you are unsure if you can complete it. Doing so may result in a ban from creating presentations in future award shows. If something unexpected does come up, tell us as quickly as possible and we will be able to cover for you. Be sure to check out the best and favorites from the 2016 Awards Ceremony in the Community Awards dossier!
Who can sign up to present:
-Users with accounts on both the wiki and the forum that can complete their presentation within the roughly 3-week window.
Who cannot sign up to present:
-Users without an account on the wiki or forum (you must have both).
-Users who are banned on either the wiki or the forums.
-Users that have been banned from participating in Awards-related activities.
Users that were previously banned but are not banned anymore will be accepted in some cases, but not all. This will be up to the discretion of the Awards Committee.
Certain awards are reserved until further notice (we are PMing certain users and asking them if they would like to present any of them. This helps us with quality control for several important awards). These awards may or may not be opened to the public, depending on responses from the people PMed. Please note: You will be held to a higher standard of quality if you sign up for Reserved awards, and are expected to deliver quality work quickly if you sign up for a Backup slot.
