I voted for the FEB leader. He had five or six wins and I'm still clueless how he'll dupe us the next time.

I voted for you in Scrimmage. I couldn't campaign for it after Jay campaigned for you as team win, though. Quin was very deserving, though, very deserving.
I appreciate that sentiment, but I couldn't have imagined winning that award based on that one performance. It was an incredibly rewarding win for me personally, but I think Quin outshined me in Mad Max alone.

I didn't play in enough games to vote for anyone beyond a single-game performance. Quin's Mad Max game was the best scum performance I saw this year. Soneji in Turf Wars was also memorable.

Kat was hot on the trail in sector B4. Having found very little there, but successfully obliterating what she did, she reported back to Adama.

"Sir, all that was left was a small piece of land, with two factions fighting over it. One side wore socks on their head, the other daisy chains. I blew them all to pieces."

"Thats the Best Job I've seen all day. So say we all." said Adama


Sector B4 has revealed the Sockey for Best Job

Congrats to Turf Wars

Other finalists were Battlestar Galactica and Romance of the Three Kingdoms.

Wow, that's awesome! I'm honored. Thanks, folks. I couldn't have done it without Daisy though; that game was her brainchild, and it was amazing to work with her on it. Thanks for all the players and prisoners in Turf Wars too for making it a really memorable hosting experience!
