★ Official 2024 Anime & Video Game Badge Voting Thread ★ Status: Suggestions for Animes + Anime Characters until July 12th at 11:59pm EST!

[tokki]

Welcome to the Official 2024 Anime & Video Game Badge Voting Thread!

-

This thread operates differently from other threads, similar to the Actors & Actresses Voting Thread.
The first phase will be the nominations phase, a period where you will be able to nominate your favorite anime, anime characters, video games and video game characters which you'd like to be added to the system.

Only a limited number of badges will be added, here is the rundown for this year's free slot limits:
Anime - 6 slots
Anime Characters - 8 slots
Video Games - 6 slots
Video Game Characters - 8 slots

To nominate, please use the following form:​

Username:
Name of anime/video game/character:
Character Origin:
Type: (video game/anime/video game character/anime character)​

If there's a category with less than maximum of the nominations when the phase comes to a close, they will all automatically be transferred to the next phase and no further nominations will be accepted.
​

• Following the nomination phase, a Nomination Voting Phase will start: here you'll be able to vote for the anime/anime characters/video games/video game characters that you'd like to see added so that the top 6/8 for each category can be finalized.​
• Once the users have voted and the winners are announced, a Suggestions Phase will start where you'll be able to submit the mock badges for your faves. Make sure to have some ready! If there are any nominations with no suggestions at the end of this phase, they will not be added into the system at this time.
  Please note that this is where you'll also be able to submit mocks for already existing badges that you would like to have updated!​
• The last step will be the Final Voting Phase which is basically the usual voting phase where you'll vote to choose the final badges.
  May the best win!​

Both this thread, as well as the Actors & Actresses Thread, will be now tied to the Awards Season, meaning that new badges (outside of the ones added with the form) will be voted on once a year.

-

GUIDELINES
​

• Only official artwork, no fan-drawn images allowed.​
• For anime and video games badges as a whole, try to use only significant logos and/or titles that represent them.​
• Screenshots are fine but should be high quality.​
• No heavily edited images.
  The more edited, the worse the quality becomes overall.​
• No extreme contrast, highlighted colors, or super light/dark images.
  They just don't look good when sized down.​
• Face should be centered.
  For aesthetic purposes.​
