Voting is open to choose which games and on which platform should receive the award for 2013’s MMO of The Year. Halfway through the voting period, which ends February 15, the number of votes cast is already at 58,000. This beats last year’s record of 50,000 votes. Christian Justus, organizer of the award said:
“The run on the audience voting has exceeded all expectations. Within two weeks voters from 158 countries have cast votes for 377 different titles, many coming from Latin America, a region that we have been supporting for the first time. At times there have been over 500 users voting at the same simultaneously.”
The jury voting is under way too. While players can freely vote for any game they want the jurors have to choose between the nominated titles, representing last year’s best new releases. In the end there will be two awards for each of the 21 categories featuring Browser, Download and Mobile MMOs, one from the jury and one from the audience.
Voting can be done at mmooftheyear.com through February 15.
