| There's a "Dipshit of the Year" award every year. It goes out to all the people who don't vote.  |

| My vote is IN! Stupid waking up to go to the toilet, getting distracted going to bed and then giving the forum too much information...  |

- You are a little bit, Fronk - sorry! I now have two votes already, including my own (containing plenty of downloadables, I might add). Like I said, though, there are always the honourable mentions for the games that didn't quite make the cut. And who knows where this might go next year...
Not to worry, I'd best get my vote in today though (thanks for the reminder!) |

| And that brings it up to eleven votes so far. Still everything to play for in a couple of very prestigious awards... EDIT: Make that thirteen, with some awards still in the balance!  |

| And that's the voting done! Thank you very much, (ladies and) gents! ...Well, sort of. The awards will start on the 15th, so until (say) midday on the 14th, you can send me any sudden changes, or put in a vote you forgot. Incidentally, if my counting is right, we had a total of sixteen voters, which I think is a forum record!  |

| I'm curious with the console votes for instance will you be posting just the Top 3 or everything so my third could be 6th on the list of Wii U games for instance.
So I've still got most voters voting for the same award then.

He's actually going to be posting the votes through the medium of interpretative dance. Should be good. |

| Let's get this party started! (dons tux, bowtie, strides out to this music) GNamer Forum Awards, 2014 Edition!Good morning, and happy birthday GNamer! The forum turns two today, and what better way to kick off its third year than with the person who contributed most last year? It's all awards from here on out, folks! Click the accompanying pictures for some appropriate music. The Fi Award for Contributor of the Year (13 votes) Bronze Medal- Spoiler:
fronkhead (one vote) "Doesn’t post all that often, but what input he has is of genuine substance and purpose."
Silver Medal- Spoiler:
=Balladeer (two votes) "stats don't lie okay it could be perceived that it's not quality over quantity but you do post some good stuff" "Biggest contributor, yet almost always posting something interesting (pretty sure you can shave off all the cricket nonsense and he'd still be top too)" (Since I'm not interested in Athrun's cricket and he's not in mine, it's mostly funny pictures of cricketers now - Ed.)=ZeroJones (two votes) "...has supplied a regular stream of interesting posts." "It’s a bit of a cop-out, but both the admins put in an incredible amount of work and dedication into keeping the forum ticking over, even in the quieter periods. Zero Jones, being new to the admin role, deserves a shout in particular." (This went to both the admin. team. Given that these votes are designed to pick one out over the other, I gave it to Zero due to his specified mention - Ed.)
And the winner is...- Spoiler:
masofdas (a whopping eight votes) "At a time when monthly postcounts are dropping steeply, we need the quantity that Mas provides right now." "Did a huge amount across a variety of boards to keep things ticking over all year. A hero. Thank you." "Got to give it to Mas, who, if I hadn't heard his West Country accent on a podcast, woul've assumed he was actually a GNamer teleprinter" "I guess Mas does do a lot here so yeah Mas" "Kept up a comprehensive list of new game releases month in, month out when I couldn't even pick a song every week. (I've been ill! And working!)" "Those monthly release lists alone are worth many internet points." "With the number of threads he's kept updated over this past year, be it compiling news or releases, I reckon he's a shoe-in for this award." (You're not wrong - Ed.)
I says- Spoiler:
Up until the final day, this was a two-horse race between me and Mas: in the same way that a steroid-boosted thoroughbred stallion against a dumpy pony would be. Mas took an early lead and never looked back, and I can't even be disappointed. His output's been prolific, and his margin of victory reflects that. Conglaturations, Mas: you are GNamer's first award-winner of 2014!

| Thoroughly delighted with the winner. A well-deserved award and so happy for him.  - The Contributor Award in general:
Very touched, also. Proud to be a joint silver medallist.

| - The Contributor Award:
 I would like to thank my dad, my nan, all the gods and most of you guys whom I thought I'd most likely bored to death with all my posting but great to see the appreciation especially about the release thread. Hopefully going forward can get the podcast back up and running which I will be posting on YouTube which might attract more members to are group. Also great to see the two admins in the sliver and silver-plate awards as they both do a lot fro the forum.
