General

For the first time, the jury was kept exactly the same as in the previous GAA. Only two changes were made from the previous GAA, and the biggest of these was in the Achievement category: One kuski can now only have one of the nomination spots in this category. This makes it more similar to Contribution, in that several achievements by one kuski is listed under the same nomination. The other change that was done was that the jury now has a deadline of when the Second step of the voting process must be done, in order for the process to take less time.

The show was held on IRCnet #gaa on January 7th 2007, at 20:00 EET. The GAA period was from December 15th 2005 to December 17th 2006. As in GAA05, SveinR presented the three first categories, then the other jury members presented two categories each, before SveinR presented the final one. After one category was presented, the jury would vote, and the jury member presenting the category would name the winner. Neither the jury votes or the community votes were public. The winner would get voiced and make a speech.

The prizes were ultimately meant to be the same as in GAA04, but because of money shortcomings they have not been possible to make and give out. Donations help.
