	== Procedure ==		== Procedure ==
			Two threads are used for each Awards: the first is used to announce the categories and inform members that they can now start voting, the second is used to announce the winners. Often a very basic narritive is used to introduce and conclude the initial post of each thread, typically taking the form of a fictional awards ceremony; earlier Awards use several Oddworld Forums members, and occasionally [[Oddworld]] characters, in these skits.

			Once the categories are listed and, where appropriate, explained, members may begin casting votes either by posting publicly in the first thread, or by privately contacting the organizer. Although ideally each member will only vote for a single member in each category, this is not always the case, with two or three names frequently sharing a vote. In these cases, the member voted for will only receive a half or third of a vote.

			Members are not allowed to vote for themselves or tell other members whom to vote for. They are also not allowed to disseminate progress updates based on public voting. Failure to follow the rules is punishable by removal of the member’s eligability to receive any awards that year. As of the 7th Awards, it has been made explicit that members are only eligable to receive awards if they have posted in the previous calendar year (with the exception of ‘[[Dearly Missed Member]]’ for which the rule is reversed).

			Winners are announced in the second thread, which remains open for members to share their congratulations and thanks.
