![[PokeCommunity.com] Nomination Round - 2010](https://img.skitch.com/20101009-xkhg2a3dxkm93cb7k8xke3iju9.png "[PokeCommunity.com] Nomination Round - 2010")
Introduction
Welcome to 2010's Hack of the Year competition. Here you can nominate your favourite hacks for recognition of the highest form. 2010's been an up and down year for ROM Hacking. We've seen some hacks stand-out and seen some real down points. But here on PC we're quite content with how things have gone. We've keep two moderators consistent for the past year, we've not lost a great deal of hacks, our main problem has been hacks being pushed into the Hacks Showcase. Granted that doesn't happen a lot, but it'd be a great deal nicer if it did happen more. Well, me rambling about past experiences isn't the best thing to be reading, especially when you just want to get on and vote for your favourite hacks!Ineligible Hacks

How to Vote
Nominations are near enough the same as last year's format. If you remember it from last year then there's going to be no excuses as to why your posts will break rules. The following categories are what you may vote for hacks in:Best Mapping - the hack that you think has the best overall mapping
Best Scripting - the hack that you think utilises scripting commands and techniques to the best possible effect
Most Graphical Appeal - the hack that you think has the best aesthetic appeal
Best Storyline - the hack that you think has the best storyline
Best Gameplay - the hack that you think plays out the best
Most Engaging Hack - the hack that has left you wanting more the most
Overall Favourite - your favourite hack
For every category a hack is nominated in it gains a point (HotM winners from 2010 are given three points as reward for winning HotM) here is an example:
Jake Reardon's vote said:
Now, this vote obviously isn't valid according to the rules we've put down. However, if it were to be valid the points would be awarded like such: Genesis = 3, Azure Horizons = 1, Shiny Gold = 1, Prism = 1, rijionAdventures = 1. The top five hacks with the most points will be moved onto a second round. Hacks with most points in a specific category will be given an individual award such as 'Best Mapping' or 'Most Engaging Hack'. A 'Fan Favourite' award will also be given for the hack with the most points overall after Round 1.
