GROUP STAGE
Though some effort has been made to mitgate villains whose names are themselves massive spoilers, as this feature/contest revolves around villains and other antagonists, readers should expect major spoilers for various games throughout.
The staff has whittled down a list of over one hundred nominations to a final set of twenty-four. We have split these into four groups of six, with the top two from each group going into the knockout phase of the contest. The qualifiers will be determined entirely by a reader vote on the site taking place at the times below. The voting forms will be accessible via the poll section on the RPGamer home page.
Voting Dates:*
Group A: May 4, 2016 (7pm EST) - May 6, 2016 (6:55pm EST)
Group B: May 6, 2016 (7pm EST) - May 9, 2016 (6:55pm EST)
Group C: May 9, 2016 (7pm EST) - May 11, 2016 (6:55pm EST)
Group D: May 11, 2016 (7pm EST) - May 13, 2016 (6:55pm EST)
(* Times are subject to change depending on staff availability)
