The Bravo Awards were a discord based award ceremony for puzzlehunts in 2021. The ceremony was conducted by Junkmail on 13th January 2022. The ceremony was intended to be a celebration of all things Puzzlehunt.
All puzzles, hunts and creations released between MIT Mystery Hunt 2021 (inclusive) and before MIT Mystery Hunt 2022 were eligible for the awards. There was a nomination process by which anyone could submit nominees, followed by a open-to-all voting process for all finalists. Each category usually had between 5 to 10 finalists and some "Honorable Mentions" who did not make the cut.
