The Crit Awards have opened their nominations! Their mission is to celebrate and recognize the contributions and achievements of the TTRPG community, so nominations and votes are community-driven.
If you enjoyed the work of anyone in the TTRPG community, from game designers to artists to actual play performers, a great way you can support them is by nominating them!

Nominations for The CRiT Awards opened today! For those who aren't familiar, The CRiT Awards are a peer-driven TTRPG awards show where creators can nominate each other to be recognized for their work in the TTRPG space.
For those of you deciding who you’d like to nominate for each category, I hope you’ll consider nominating me for the category of Best Game Master | Indie.
During the eligible period I GM’d two seasons of Monsterhearts: Freshman Year for Girls Run These Worlds and 6 indie one-shots on my own channel. I also facilitated 7 GMless indie games and Shall We? a Wanderhome limited series. (GMing and Facilitating are very much not the same thing, but I want to highlight the number of indie TTRPG shows I've produced/facilitated as well as GM'd.)
In 2023, I started the Incredibly Indie series on RollForFelicity, which is a series specifically intended to get more eyes on games with few (if any) examples of play. I consider myself a huge supporter of indie TTRPGs.
Not only do I increase the visibility of indie TTRPGs, but I’m also very good at running them. I get to the heart of the mechanics and lean into the stories and moments each game is hoping to achieve. When I run a game, I try to run it as the quintessential example of what THAT game can be.
I have a deep love for indie TTRPGs, but more than that, I think I’m really fucking good at running them. So if you’ve enjoyed any of the series or one-shots I’ve GM’d, I hope you’ll consider nominating me for Best Game Master | Indie.

The Crit Awards 2024
I just learned about these today! I'm eligible for some homebrew awards. It'd be nice to be nominated for Best Homebrew and Best Supplement, and I have a few things that could qualify (more on that later).
More than my own nominations, however, I just really want people to look at the categories and just think about who you could nominate. Everyone only gets 1 nomination per category and there are restrictions on what's eligible (public work, not big company like crit role or dropout, no AI, shared between last jan and this feb, etc.). And I know there's a lot of good categories and candidates for them.
You can find the categories for this years awards here: Crit Awards Categories.
Please, if you see a category and think of an eligible contender fill out the nomination form. It's pretty quick and you can skip categories you can't think of anyone for.
(personally I like Crest Saga for the Indie TTRPG and multiplayer TTRG categories, but don't tell anyone I said that)
My own eligibility below the cut.
As for my own works in the homebrew categories, the following are eligible:
Re:Alignment (for homebrew supplement/3rd party content)
Routine Passives (for homebrew supplement/3rd party content)
Psionics: Spellcasting & Specialties (This one could honestly go either way, it has subclasses, spells, and variant feature rules. It's an all in one supplement. This is the one I'd prefer to be nominated in this category or both.)
Grimdark Puzzles (for supplement, sadly Grimdark & Dangerous itself is not eligible)
Druid: Circle of the Glade (for supplement, technically?)
Encounter With: The Pale Widow (for monster)
Figher: Blade Drifter (for supplement)
Sorcerer: Vampiric Bloodline (for supplement)
Barbarian: Path of Possession (For supplement)
Druid: Circle of Bones (for supplement)
Artificer: Necrocrafter (for supplement)
Bard: College of Partying (for supplement)
Mancatcher (for best homebrew spell, monster, or item)
Restless Hunger (for homebrew spell, monster, or item)
Wax Wings (for homebrew spell, monster, or item)
Suspender of Disbelief (for homebrew spell, monster, or item—this is the standalone item I am most proud of if I'm being honest)
There is more, but it's more niche and behind a minimal paywall (granted some of the above is also behind a paywall). You can find these by following this link and sorting by date.

Hello everyone! Nominations for the Crit awards are open and I am looking for your help! If you have the time, I would absolutely love it if you could nominate me for a few categories:
Best Character Artist (Since that is the closest fit for what I do)
https://www.instagram.com/dungeondelves/
Best Innovation in the TTRPG Space (For using Vtuber models in AP streams, making animated one shorts that focus more on the characters)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uq1TLnY67S8
Best One Shot (For Roll For Good's charity event where I guest GMed: Into The Woods)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b8ERpdJ7iVo
Being nominated will help bring my art to more people, which could mean more chances to work with cool people on cool projects. You need to provide a link along with your vote, so I've added those under each category I think is relevant to me.
I also urge you to vote for other creators you like for the other categories! You can choose to add your name to the vote or vote anonymously, depending on your preference.
Thank you all for your continued support! <3 Link for the nominations form is here: https://forms.gle/7AsSGaRgQebDrdkm8

My solo journaling game Untitled Moth Game was nominated as a finalist for the Best Solo TTRPG of the Year category of the CRIT Awards.
(I'm not asking you to vote for it. You can't vote for it, anyway, because I've withdrawn it from consideration.)
I bought and read the other games in the category. Here's why they're great.

Who is Ernie Bering?
Our Ernie is a finalist in the Best NPC category in this year's CRIT Awards, so let's have a quick rundown of who the man is.
If you already know, you can cast your vote for Ernie (and for Merely Roleplayers for Best Storyline!) at the CRIT Awards site:
Ernest 'Ernie' Bering is a craggy, barrel-chested man usually seen in a nondescript grey suit, cut to conceal a shoulder holster. In a visual medium, he would be played by Tommy Lee Jones, but voiced by Ray Winstone.
In our show, he's voiced by Matt Boothman. Matt and Chris Starkey came up with the character and Ellie Pitkin came up with his name.
Ernie is a career field agent of the Department of Omissions (DoOm), tasked with minimising the disruption the supernatural world causes to ordinary British citizens. He's a man shaped by life in the shadows.
Ernie was the point man for a disastrous DoOm scheme to release ghouls into the English countryside as bait for the Hunt, which legends say would scour England of evil. The Hunt didn't show but the ghouls massacred a family on a camping trip.
The only survivor was the youngest child, Cameron Jarvis (played by Chris Starkey). Ernie kept an eye on Cam as he moved through the foster system, mainly out of guilt, but also because Cam had fought off a ghoul, so he might be useful to Ernie in the future.
Completely off DoOm's books, Ernie trained Cam to deal with ghouls and other otherworldly threats. He's been both a handler and something of a surrogate father to Cam.
Years after the tragic experiment with the ghouls, the Hunt finally arrived in England and invited Ernie to join their ranks – via a ghoul being used as a combination errand boy and hunting hound. Ernie declined and took a nasty stab wound from the ghoul.
After Ernie tried and failed to keep Cam out of things, the truth finally came out and Cam put the injured Ernie on notice: if Ernie ever shows his face to Cam again, he'll find himself on the receiving end of his own deadly training.
And that's where we left Ernie at the end of Vigil: Quarry. He will return later this year in Vigil: Fear Itself...
In the meantime, show your appreciation for our favourite highly competent moral vacuum in the Best NPC category at the CRIT Awards!

I'm sorry but your last few anon are taking the award show way to seriously
Quackity said this isn't community voting/competition.
Quackity didn't kick Tubbo out of the call; he couldn't join because of probably leaks, and he's doing a subathon. Quackity felt bad, and he said he should've been specific (which I agree, lol). For the record, Tubbo isn't mad at or taking it seriously.
You should have expected the award show to be scuffed; it's the first one. This isn't the Grammys, Emmys, Oscars, the streamer awards, etc. This award show is meant to be unserious. I can tell how much Tubbo was having fun, laughing, and not getting mad.
I understand you're mad, but at the same time, it doesn't matter who won/lost. At the end of the day, it's just an award show; it ain't that deep LMFAO
Okay well there’s a few thing here that I think we can agree on bc yes, it was a miscommunication and quackity didn’t kick Tubbo out of the call. People were upset at first because it seemed like a  hypocrisy to let pol in the call when he was streaming too. After everything was cleared up people were fine.
Also, I don’t think I saw anyone actively upset about how scuffed it was. People expect it for live productions and most people were just joking around about it. I think there could have been more testing done beforehand (I think quackity said that it was the first audio test) but overall I don’t think anyone had incredibly high standards for it either. This isn’t the streamer awards lol.
Now I also agree that the awards weren’t that deep. It’s a silly awards show and it doesn’t make or break anyone career. But no one was really angry at the awards show, they were angry at repeated behavior towards creators that don’t deserve it. It’s not hard to point out the sever lack of French representation, the lack of art for certain creators (some who play a shit ton more then other), and the lack of animatics that has become the standard for the qsmp at this point. The qsmp awards was just another arrow to the back of repeated negligence and disservice to creators that play the server every fucking day of their lives. BBH and tubbo haven’t stopped playing the server even when the eggs stopped logging on and both had trouble staying positive and inspired.
They also both defended the admins and purgatory, and were two of the few people who actually played purgatory as it was intended, only to be harassed and targeted by people. Which we later come to find may have been purposeful. Both BBH and Tubbo had incredibly involved and amazing lore that got one image in the museum while other people who played maybe once a week had 3. How was it that purgatory 2 had 5 members of the server actively participating but most of the clips were of the rats or cellbit and baghera who were on for one day after not playing for weeks?
So no, people weren’t necessarily mad about the awards themselves, it’s about a pattern of behavior that hasn’t changed in the slightest and continues to sideline some of the most active and supportive members of the server. If you want to see a more in depth look at the bias then this post lays out how many nominations people received.

Thing is i am kinda salty about the idea of a best rp award if not purely cuz it reminds me of how bolas were called the rp team in purgatory when... uh... no. That wasnt how that worked. In fact purgatory arguably butchered some of their characters while it enhanced the other teams'. That really made it obvious to me that we can't label someone the best rper.
#i dont think i would actually be upset with who wins the award#but it does put a bad taste in my mouth cuz peoples rp styles are different#so putting them in a hierarchy with a best rper doesnt really work?#im happy with whoever winning im not happy with the idea that the server has s best rper yknow?#discourse#crit#neg#bolas neg
