The
Support AW Awards are another chance for the community to
receive an award in a unique way. For the 1st Annual SAW
Awards, there are ten award categories. A council, rather
than the public, will choose the recipients of each category.
|
This
year, there are ten categories. They are described below.
Active Community
(World or Town)
All worlds, towns, and cities that are active with
builders and in the community are eligible for this
award.
|
Best World for Design
All worlds in the AW universe are eligible for this
award. Recipient is chosen based mostly on appearance
of world. |
Better Building
This award gives master builders a chance
to be recognized for their hard work. It is especially
important for builders to suggest (see below) their
builds for this category. |
Superior Programming
This award is for all utilities created for use with
Active Worlds. |
Top Creative Design
(Objects, Textures, or Avatars)
Creative Design can be awarded to a world or individual
for outstanding object modeling, texture creation/use,
and/or avatar creation. |
Non-Profit
Contributor (Individual, Group, or World)
This award will be granted to one of AW's many non-profit
organizations or persons who offers a service or resource
to AW users at no charge. |
Community Leader
Leadership covers all users who head up organizations,
worlds, towns, and even those people who are just plain
helpful in the community. |
Greatest Online Resource
Online resource will be awarded to the best internet
web site containing information, interactivity, or a
unique resource. |
Best Use of
Innovative Technology (Media,
Browser Add-Ons, Web Integration)
This category is flexible and will be awarded to the
person(s) who show the best use of available technology
in a unique way. This includes "create media,"
browser add-ons, utilization of web with AW, etc. |
Outstanding (Support AW) Staff
Award
The Outstanding Staff Award category will be awarded
to Support AW's most dedicated team member. Staff from
all of SAW's entities, such as AWNews, are eligible. |
|
Recipients
will receive the title of winner of their category(ies)
and a SAW Award statue object and image. While we would
like to award extensions to all of the winners, we simply
cannot award extensions to towns and organizations.
Our statue object is currently in development.
|
The
1st Annual SAW Awards is to be held in the new Support AW
Headquarters building. The Stage @ SAW will be the basis
of the event. While the venue is modest, remember that this
is a trial ceremony. It's also a refreshing alternative
to your average theater setting.
|
It is
possible that our council may not be aware of all the best
things in AW, especially builds. You are welcome to submit
information about something you or someone else has created
to ensure it is considered.
