The Mordeth Award, recognizing whichever WAD of the year has taken the longest time to develop and release, in honor of Mordeth's notoriously protracted development schedule.

The first such award was given in 2011, however they were preceded by a non-repeated, ad-hoc award ('This Is My Boomstick') in the 15th Cacowards in 2008.

Best Gameplay Mod, presented to the best gameplay modification of the year.

Best Multiplayer ( Best DM Level until 2007 and Best Multiplayer Level until 2011,) honoring the best multiplayer WAD of the year.

There are usually two runners up, though the number has varied between zero (2011) and five (2012).

Runners Up are given to mods which would have been good enough for inclusion if there hadn't been even better mods filling all the slots.

The series started in 2004 with the so-called 11th installment, which was an attempt to replicate the success of the previous year's 10 Years of Doom celebration, more precisely the Top 100 WADs of All Time and Top 10 Infamous WADs articles.Īpart from the regular Cacowards, there are additional Cacowards granted each year: The Cacowards are a yearly feature in Doomworld, released on Doom's birthday.
