Hey u/JagexAzanna By definition I don’t think I should be in the “Best Video Creator” category as I’m still new. I’m honored to have that extra nomination, but if it’s possible to opt me out of that 1 category and leave me in the other two: “best new streamer” and “best new video creator” categories that would best I feel. I don’t want to take up a space that someone else should have.

Hey Rheyo, first of all congratz on the nomination!

So there was a bit of a debate the other day when we were going over the votes and deciding what to do about folks getting nominated in similar categories (Best New Artist/Artist ran into the same situation) and after thinking about it we decided it would be best to stand by the communities votes, if you got enough votes to be in the consideration for a spot you earn that spot and we didn't want to meddle too much deciding that X person shouldn't belong in Y category.

Now obviously this isn't an ideal situation but its the fairest to the intent of the nominations, We are looking into using a more modified system in the future to help mitigate situations like this but for this time around we wanted to stick to the votes as they came in.

u/jagexazanna The one of Pokescape on the website only shows the first bits of his whole thing.

Yeah I had to hunt down a gif to showcase the kinda idea of PokeScape and it was cut a little short.

It seems kind of odd that the same person can be nominated for both the regular category and the new x category. Also one of the artists in the best new artist category was also nominated last year, so how are they considered new?

Just chucking my reply on this issue here -
