Transparent Voting Process

The voting system for the GAM3 Awards 2024 is designed to ensure fairness and transparency. Jury members will determine 90% of the final outcome in most categories, with the remaining 10% contributed by community votes. However, community input will play a larger role in specific categories, such as the "People’s Choice Award" and "Best Content Creator", where fans have 100% control over the final decision.

Adding to the awards' inclusive nature, the “Games' Choice Award” will allow game studios to vote for their top game of the year, bringing more industry voices into the process. The “GAM3 Changer” award will recognize an individual making significant contributions to web3 gaming, nominated by their peers within game development studios.
