Probably unnecessary disclosures but I’m gonna make em anyway just to be safe.

In 2015 I engaged with Blizzard Entertainment in sponsored videos for Starcraft 2: Legacy of the Void. While LotV is not nominated for any awards, Blizzard Entertainment is.

For part of 2015, my eSports team was sponsored by gog.com which is owned by CD Projekt. CD Projekt Red and its game Witcher 3 both have nominations in this awards show. CD Projekt RED is a subsidiary of CD Projekt, who also owns gog.com. Both the team and sponsorship are no longer in operation.

From 2006-2010, I was part of the same fansite as a former staff member for Squad games, who created Kerbal Space Program. Kerbal Space Program is nominated for an award in this show. Said person was not working for Squad games at the time of the nomination.
