>>> FINAL WORDS <<<
A huge thank you to everyone who competed in this year’s NGADM! It’s been quite a journey, one that X3ll3n and I will remember for a long time. The music showcased this year has been exceptional, and we’re truly impressed by all of you and what you’ve created.
There were many lessons for me and X3ll3n as hosts to be learned behind the scenes. There are things that we would have done differently if we were to redo this contest from the beginning, but we have gained knowledge and experience that we will bring with us for future work. Despite that, we're still very happy with how this contest panned out and how smoothly it went.
In regards to NGADM 2026; at the moment we do not have any plans on hosting it. We are most likely going to have a lot of other things on our plate at the start of next year's NGADM, so if any of you who are reading this are interested in taking over the reins, send me or @X3LL3N a PM here on newgrounds and we'll discuss things further!
Thank you everyone for an incredible 16th anniversary of NGADM! It has been an honor for both me and X3ll3n to uphold NGADM’s legacy once again and to help keep this community’s longstanding tradition alive.
Cheers!
// Benji-G & X3LL3N
