Jurying

Help contribute to the SIX line-up selection process as a volunteer juror! You’ll be playing, reviewing, and voting on the many fantastic games submitted to Seattle Indies Expo.

Were you a juror in the past? Email six@seattleindies.org to sign up directly. Otherwise please see the following instructions:

  1. Jurors must be members of the Seattle Indies Discord.
  2. Jurors will have 3 weeks (between July 3rd and August 6th) to judge games.
  3. Jurors who opt-in to review multi-player games must attend one multi-player session either in-person in Seattle or virtually on our Discord.
  4. We ask that jurors play each game for a minimum of 15 minutes, to give each game a fair amount of time and consideration.
  5. Jurors are asked to play a minimum of 6 randomly assigned games.
    • Jurors who play at least 10 games will receive a free SIX T-shirt 👕
    • Jurors who play at least 20 games will receive an extra special secret gift 🎁
    • All jurors who show up to SIX will receive 2 free guaranteed drink tickets 🥂
  6. For each game, jurors will be asked to fill out a rubric of 4 scores and 3 questions. Written responses should be at least 500 characters each. You can view a sample of the rubric and answers here.
  7. We ask that jurors remember there is a human being behind every game. Critique should be constructive above all — and kindness and encouragement never goes amiss either.

Jurying is now over. Check back again next year to sign up!
