I'm sad I didn't live long into Haiku. I was really looking forward to playing that one.

Re: 2016 Socky Awards
I feel honored to see both Futurama and Parks & Recreation in the finalists for Best Heist as well, and I just want to give a shout out to all of the players of those games as well as both games' Socky voters. Those games were an absolute blast to host, especially seeing the top-notch roleplay. Thanks for the recognition there, folks. I'm glad to see the TV sitcom series has generated such excitement.

My biggest mafia regret of 2016 is not being able to play Haiku. I hope there's a sequel.

Sector C1 may have been the pay dirt they were looking for.
"I just blew up a gigantic server computer ship!" Hot Dog cheered. "It must serve as the host for their communications equipment or something. It had a very Cylon-sounding name and looked like a skeleton. Spooky as frak."

Congrats to Epignosis!!!
Your games are always absolutely phenomenal. It's been really special to see your hosting career from Masters of the Universe to now. What stands out is the incredible string of consistently engaging, intriguing, perfectly-balanced, just fun as hell games.

Re: 2016 Socky Awards
Best Host was probably the most difficult vote for me. All the hosts were super. Epignosis is clearly deserving.

"Sector D2 eliminated!" Starbuck and Hot Dog shouted in unison.
"Kind of a shame. The only system there seemed very virtuous," Starbuck mourned.
"Oh well," Hot Dog said. "We gotta unplug these Toasters no matter what. It was a pretty jagged system anyway. Tough to navigate."

Congrats, Jay!
No one can match your sheer effort when you're a townie firing on all cylinders. Definitely deserved. Glad to see Golden and Sloonei got some recognition though; they both give you a run for your money!

See? You can trust me. I'm never bad. Always good to go.
Thanks everyone. Sloonei and Golden are also obviously fantastic civilians, and if any bad guys would let Epignosis stay alive for once he'd be right there too.
