Please don't think i am digging at anyone for this approach, i was just seeking 'Clarity' on how OGA now handles such events, and is this a new thing going forward. You have already mentioned that this was a 'Special circumstance' and i totally respect the decision, and completely understand the decision to do this.
If someone has been found continouisy uploading copyright infringing works knowlingly, and against OGA policys, then its actually a good way to let others know and the right action taken.
I was just worried that should a couple of assets be found on a users profile, would just be an outward ban or will there be an opportunity to 'Appeal' or 'Discuss' such work as i have known it to be. i would hate to think that any of my work was 'suspect' and was at the opinion that it was 'copyright infringing' and be shut out of my account with a 'NOTE' left in signiture.
This all seem to happen so quickly, and im like 'WOOOOAH' :)
It's not an easy job you have keeping up with all that is submitted, you cant see everything, and considering you are somewhat relaint on the users being honest, which most are, its a shame there are a couple that have a disregard for copyright licensing, or just have no idea of how it works, or even bother to understand the risks involved when uploading, makes it even worse when they do know but carry on anyway. for which the punishment is warranted in my opinion.
This last award left me with a little dillema, there was two game assets that shared the same favourites score of 4. So I took it upon myself to make a choice between them and i hope you will all agree with me.
There was losts of interesting stuff being made with the banners this year and the community really got behind the banner with their own variations that were used with all of the games in the game jam, so this showed a really great collabarative effort from all involved so i felt it deserved to win this award, not just for Looneybits who created the fantastic banner but to represent all the collabarators as well. Well Done! ;)
Now, I made some certificates for you to download, print off, file them or do whatever with them, which are here as attachments. The blank certificates have been uploaded to the Looneybits submission page from here: https://opengameart.org/content/oga-summer-game-jam-banner-2019
