Remilia Scarlet Posted July 9, 2018 (edited) Looks like over in the Quake side of the world, they're doing something similar to the Cacowards called the Quake Awards. Nominations just opened the other day and will run through the 14th of July. After that will be a shortlist period. There's more info here if anyone is interested: http://www.quakeawards.com/ 23 Share this post Link to post
Bauul Posted July 9, 2018 Good for them! Quake custom mapping pretty much passed me by, but this would be a great way to begin checking out some of the more recent releases. I did laugh at their opening post though: Quote The Doom and Doom 2 communities have had annual awards for people who’ve made contributions to their games for some time now "Some time" seems like a slight understatement! 3 Share this post Link to post
Avoozl Posted July 9, 2018 Couldn't they be a bit more original than naming the awards after the game? Because obviously Cacowards aren't called Doom Awards. :P 0 Share this post Link to post

Remilia Scarlet Posted July 10, 2018 That'd actually go with Maybe some of these suggestions should go over to the Quake Awards people. 12 Share this post Link to post
MrGlide Posted July 10, 2018 while quad awards has a ring to it, I think quake awards is fine. 0 Share this post Link to post
Immorpher Posted July 11, 2018 Although I like the design of Quake 1 more than 2 and subsequent, but maybe the "Stroggies"? And have a golden variant of a Strogg enemy? Nice they are doing it though as Quake seems to get less attention and I enjoyed Quake just as much as Doom. 2 Share this post Link to post
Immorpher Posted July 12, 2018 A related question, are there any active Quake forums? I took a look into Quakeone.com and it didn't look to be in a good state. I would like to get into contributing to Quake 1 modding, just need to get connected to the right people. 0 Share this post Link to post

I think the Quaddicted forums are active as well, iirc. Also, Twitter is a surprisingly good place for Quake mappers. 1 Share this post Link to post
