jmickle66666666 Posted November 17, 2015 An actually serious nomination for the Espi award: Simon "fraggle" Howard: Developer of Chocolate Doom (and various previous source ports), one of the maintainers of Freedoom and creator of countless other projects and resources that have been invaluable over the years. A very smart and thoughtful developer, esteemed and respected all round. Not many people can say they've done as much for the community as Fraggle has. 0 Share this post Link to post
Jimmy Posted November 17, 2015 My Espi nomination goes to Bloodshedder and TheGreenHerring. They've been part of this community for an unspeakable amount of time, and they have recently volunteered to carry on Ty's legacy. Bloodshedder has also gallantly endured moderating this community, and TGH is a second-to-none project coordinator who has guided the last two Community Chests to completion - no small feat. 0 Share this post Link to post

Suitepee Posted November 23, 2015 I'd like to nominate AD79 for the Most Promising Newcomer Cacoward after having played 50 Monsters. He's like a potential Ribbiks/cannonball/Joshy in the making, what with the attention to detail/dickishness in difficulty at times that was present in 50 Monsters. 0 Share this post Link to post
Ashstrodamus Posted November 26, 2015 Memfis said:Swift Death and Warlock's Hearth were good. Also from teledest.txt: Yep, Swift Death and Valiant for me. The most fun I've had out of the new megawads this year. 0 Share this post Link to post
Marnetmar Posted November 27, 2015 Nominating AD_79 for best newcomer violation. 0 Share this post Link to post

june gloom Posted November 30, 2015 Sunlust, hands down, for making a convert out of a long-time slaughtermap hater :) dead.wire is also subtly brilliant. 0 Share this post Link to post
nxGangrel Posted December 1, 2015 Never mind about 50 shades of graytall. +1 Violence by AD_79 instead. 0 Share this post Link to post

an_mutt Posted December 5, 2015 I'm also gonna drop a nomination for Ol' No Name. Great atmosphere throughout, and maps 02 and 03 in particular are real gems. Nice and short, to boot. 0 Share this post Link to post

DeathevokatioN Posted December 6, 2015 Not sure if Rottking's "Elf gets Pissed" is legible for a nomination yet since it seems like it's in it's release candidate stage, but just in case: https://www.doomworld.com/vb/wads-mods/84752-elf-gets-pissed-a-new-heretic-episode-rc1-ready/ 0 Share this post Link to post
Csonicgo Posted December 7, 2015 Not a Cacoward nomination, but at least a mention: All those who contributed to the preservation efforts of community tools , WADs, and more. Examples: A previously missing version of InkWorks. THE ABYSS due to the insane effort it took to get it onto the idgames archives in the first place, and the quality of the mapset in the time of its release. The original BSP 1.1x for starting the Doom modding revolution - Now in the archives. John Romero, for the 2015 resource dump, including DoomEd. And of course, the recently revealed 0.3 alpha. Security of previously endangered source code, and using some of these to recover lost source port code. Repackaging ancient mods to work on modern source ports, such as Cleimos 2 and Strain. Tongue-in-cheek mention: Those who found the sources of doom's guns, giving the potential for high-res versions or extra animations. A Cacoward nominaton: Strife: Veteran Edition, for finally making Strife playable for modern audiences instead of sniping loose copies on ebay, or worse, piracy. 0 Share this post Link to post
Gothic Posted December 7, 2015 Yeah, I was wondering if SVE could get a cacoward, even though it's just a re-release of the game. 0 Share this post Link to post
scifista42 Posted December 7, 2015 Well, it's more than just a re-release of the game. Think of the bugfixes and new engine and features. 0 Share this post Link to post
Yugiboy85 Posted December 7, 2015 I vote for "valiant". If a megawad can make me replay it multiple times without getting bored of it, it definitely deserves a cacoward in my eyes. 0 Share this post Link to post
chungy Posted December 7, 2015 I haven't paid attention to this year's releases much, but Strife VE must get a spot on the Cacowards. It would be a sin not to! 0 Share this post Link to post
Noiser Posted December 9, 2015 I want to nominate this beautiful clusterfuck for the Mockaward: shrooms.wad I don't know if it is exactly a joke-wad, but it is crazy as hell. 0 Share this post Link to post
Shadow Hog Posted December 9, 2015 I'd probably hold off on shrooms.wad until it's out of beta, personally. 0 Share this post Link to post
