I must admit complete ignorance here, but how do games or rule sets get nominated for an Origins award?

Are they important or prestigious?

No sure I can answer the "importance factor"….

but the rest of it is explained here:

Bribery, blackmail, hookers, booze. The usual.

I think the big kicker is you have to be part of Gama to even win.

Drivel. I cannot see how the games are nominated.

I believe you just have to submit your entry to GAMA…

in the past this involved also submitting multiple copies (7) so they could hand them out to the judges (so john's comment is not far off)…

To the best of my knowledge you do not have to be a GAMA member?

there are contacts at the bottom of the page for submission info, I would just call them.

Here is the form for the 39th annual:

However, I think they are all done taking submissions for 2012.
