Don't forget that they actually trashed votes that came from people visiting the page while being referred from neogaf.

They just significantly reduced the power of all GAF referred votes

They know...

seriously, this is the /v/GA's, not neogafGA's, vote for it if you're a member of /v/, as the votes have no meaning if Neogaf and Reddit have a hold on them.

Darklord · Jan 3, 2014

Edit: Wrong chan site?

Pop-O-Matic · Jan 3, 2014

Shouldn't it be /v/GX now?

Final answer is, what is a GameFAQs comment on the NeoGAF community

Visualante2 · Jan 3, 2014

I don't know if this vote really represents /v/ any more.

Uhm... That did not actually orginate from 4chan /v/'s or any other of 4chan's board. Sucks to just post misinformation like that to bolster an argument because you feel attacked that a random unaffiliated board doesn't want to count your vote for their GOTY.

I can't believe im defending /v/, but that was Wizardchan, not 4chan

but seriously, /v/ is fairly harmless in itself, and while they might do EPUC 133t RAIDS every once in a while, that's not the general sentiment of /v/. Most people on /v/ just wanna complain about video games

I'm not arguing anything and I couldn't care less what they vote for. Way to get super defensive there.

Really? I always heard it came from /v/. I definitely saw some of it there, I didn't realize it originated on another chan site.

They go beyond the typical immature video game crap.

It wasn't them, it was another chan like site that has a lot of suicidal depressed people saying that her depression isn't real compared to theirs because she has a job and a boyfriend and a family that loves her.

PodcastFips · Jan 3, 2014

It's sad to see Knack in the "most hated" and "worst gameplay" lists. 10 chapters left on very hard and I finally platinumed it, I really like it.

You still posted something which was uninformed, seemingly as a response to why /v/ excludes GAF.

But yeah I get defensive when people talk bullshit, but it seems like you were also defensive or you wouldn't have posted anything in the first place. And then there is the part where I'm correct and you're not.

Moonlight · Jan 3, 2014

My favourite part of these lists is how unfailingly the results resemble other, more mainstream GOTY lists or whatever else despite all intentions to shape them otherwise.

You see people in this board defend child rape sometimes

and this board is heavily moderated

If you really want me too, just PM me some of the lists you want done, and we can do this shit together

although, just know that your vote won't count if you vote from this thread

Jotamide · Jan 3, 2014

Are they using the Steam login thing again to vote?

Nah, I'm just gonna do a few more that are either funny or stupid.

SmithnCo · Jan 3, 2014

Last year's show was terrible and /v/ itself seems to hate this show for the most part so...

Seems like the kinda of awards thought up after a long session of circle jerking. I won't be participating but good luck to you all.

Poor rock simulator.

chaobreaker · Jan 3, 2014

I already voted in some categories. I didn't play that many new games in 2013.

Sup /v/. I'm browsing neogaf, reddit, and 4chan at the same time. What are you going to do about it?

Frolow · Jan 3, 2014

Sub_Level said:

Not surprising, /v/ hates gaf

for good reason

.

And I'm going to repeat what Jarate said earlier: Don't vote in this unless you actually post on 4chan in some capacity. They filter votes from reddit/gaf for a reason.

They charge money for beta, depending on your viewpoint that can be seen as a cash grab. At least the Starbound beta is an actual beta, compared to other pay2demo "betas".

GlamFM · Jan 3, 2014

Voting interface is great - just like last year.

Wonder why nobody copied it by now.

If it's on Kickstarter/Indie-Go-Go or uses a Kickstarter-esque pre-order system, then it's a blatant attempt by lazy devs to scam people out of free money that they will us for everything except making a video game.

Ennoia · Jan 3, 2014

Don't ignore the most interesting part of this voting

/v/ Grammy Award
for the best song from /v/ - The Musical
http://2013.vidyagaemawards.com/voting/musical

It's hilarious.

JoeInky · Jan 3, 2014

Fuck the /V/GA's, the first one was average and then the rest were just rubbish, it gets posted on way too many sites that aren't /v/ so you get a bunch of people from this site, reddit and a load of others shitting it up.
