Blog Awards 2010

Posted by Kevin in News | 6 comments

Just a quick post to thank everyone involved in the site and anyone who went out of their way to put us forward for nomination.

Some bloke from Cork and his team of merry men and wimminz put together the nominations list for this years Irish Blog Awards, and shoryuken hit the polls in three categories: “Best Group Blog”, “Best Specialist Blog” and “Best Newcomer”.

It’s a surprise and a delight to be nominated in the first place, but three times is special. Especially since we’ve only been up and running since last May. Although these nominations do get whittled down into actual shortlists we’ll keep our fingers and toes crossed, and let you know if we advance to the next level of blog awards-ness. If we do get nominated it then goes to a public vote as to who wins at the event itself where, should we be shortlisted, a bunch of gamer nerds will be present, slurring irrevocable shite

Again, thanks to anyone who nominated us. I would also like to make a quick mention of our brothers-in-arms (but they’re more nerdy because they talk about comic books and non-interactive games, or “films” as they call them), Burn All Zombies who re-tooled their site recently to look cooler then usual and picked up two nominations for their efforts!
