The GNamer Forum Annual Awards 2016

Also, a quick question.  The awards are for 3DS and Wii U GotY, not 3DS/Wii U Exclusive(otY).  Does that mean that one could vote for, say, Axiom Verge in both Wii U and multiplat?  (Also AV was released on the PS4 and computers in 2015 but everything else in 2016, adding an extra layer of complexity...)

Hmm, I hadn't thought about that. Let's make it easier on ourselves and restrict it to exclusives only - that means I'll need an amendment from yourself Mas!

...can I make a small plea to keep it to games, not exclusives, for the Wii U?  Otherwise I'll be very stuck. It's also in line with how we do things here: games on a Ninty consoles in those sub-fora, everything else elsewhere.

Same as Balla please

Looking back at yesteryears, it seems like we didn't restrict to exclusives. Fair enough! It remains a free-for-all!

That's good news. Man, I should start to think about my votes, shouldn't I?

And with Jay's confirmation, my votes are in!

Three of you lovely folks have responded thus far, so thanks to that trio.

The rest of you - still plenty of time left, so you're safe for now.

I've been working on mine slowly this evening but repeatedly getting distracted by Rick and Morty.

Aw j-jeez Drunka, you gotta get the votes in Drunka, aw j-jeez.

Listen, Jay, I'm gonna do the *BUUURP* votes, okay Jay, I'm gonna do the votes I'm gonna do great votes just you wait and see, the votes Jay, I'm doing the votes Jay, you and me, Jay, and the votes, you gotta have more faith in my votes Jay, y'know, I always do the votes because I'm the best.

Just started thinking about my votes. I'll get 'em to le Captain de Vote when I'm ready.

Less than a week to go folks... I've only had four responses thus far.

I'll blame it on the Switch hype, but please fire your votes through if you haven't already!

If you don't get any more, just assume I won everything.

Sorry - I've been a bit busy outside of the Switch business. I'll try and fit it in at some point... I know, running out of time and all that.

The forum really needs to Switch its attention to this now.

Ive been meaning to get this done but long posts are a pain without a laptop, hopefully I'll have this sorted by Monday.

Wii are not amused with how often we expect to see this gag in the next few years.

And another ballot has been posted into my inbox! There's still a few of you to go - you know who you are - so please get your votes in!

In Australia, it is illegal to not vote.
The person running this vote has the power to ban for seven seconds.
The Painted World of Ariandel is like a magic snow Australia.

I mean, these are just unconnected facts I thought I'd share.

Look, if you don't vote, Trump might win all the categories. There's a precedent for that happening.

(low-key might be the best pun I've ever made)

Will submit my nominations tomorrow

I'll try and vote tomorrow if that's not too late - I haven't had time to think about it today - sorry

Yup, that'll be fine, Jim - voting ends on Wednesday 18th January.

Ah, good. Yeah it's my yearly review document that was due by tomorrow - getting mixed up!



Uh-oh, who have I voted as Funniest Head of Department?
