2014 Gaming Board Awards Vote/Discussion Thread
Posted on 12/16/14 at 12:36 pm

Here we go. One last chance to keep the GBA's alive. One last chance to tell us what posters you like and don't like. One last chance to tell us what you thought of the 2014 gaming year. One last chance to prove how much of a fanboy you are.
This will be a toned down awards list as compared to the last couple of years. I'll add the flair next year if we decide to keep this going.
So to make this easier, if you could go ahead and reserve a post to put your vote in later, that would be great. I'll let the voting go until the end of the year, and will hopefully get everything tallied quickly enough.
Some of these will be write in, some will have nominees which I and Gardoki (big thanks) came up with. Write-ins are alright, but unless we missed an obvious nomination, please keep to the provided list.
We can improve on the names if needed. Just stuff I came up with in the spur of the moment.
Have fun, everyone, and Merry Christmas!!

How many pieces of flair are we required to have?
Posted on 12/16/14 at 12:45 pm to SaintLSUnAtl
15 is the minimum but some people choose to wear more.

I updated the "biggest disappointment" award name. I kind of promised him

Best Single Player (all platforms):Dark Souls 2 (only release this year I've played)
Scruffy Disapproves (biggest disappointment): Either Destiny or MCC. I didn't play either but I know multiple people who actually got refunds for both.
Can the MIA award actually be the Bruce? He posted more than anyone for a long time then disappeared. Since he's the MIA poster, can the award be named after him already?

Posted on 12/16/14 at 12:57 pm to Mr Gardoki
Should simply be called the "Ubisoft award"

I was kind of figuring he would win this. Either him or Anti.

Was contemplating creating a Debbie Downer category just for you, considering all the "release date pushed back" threads you've started.
Posted on 12/16/14 at 1:09 pm to sicboy
All because of one day when a bunch of games got pushed back.
