Best Civilian in 2015, Best Indy in 2016, does that mean what I think it's going to mean for 2017...

Looks like my instantaneous assaults on Jay in recent games is going to pay off.

Congrats, Quin!! You have been an absolutely welcome addition to the community for sure. Glad to see recognition to the finalists too! We had some really solid additions last year. So glad to have you all here.

Starbuck and Hot Dog hit Sector D3 together. They needed it, as they flew straight into a war between evil computer programs and sweaty biker dudes. They were glad they didn't have to clean up that mess.

Posted: **Sun Mar 05, 2017 9:26 pm**

Mad Max was probably the game of the year IMO (it went into overtime!), so that's no surprise. I'm glad Transistor is also being recognized too. It wasn't as loud and chaotic as some other games, but it was intricate and highly strategic.

Posted: **Sun Mar 05, 2017 9:26 pm**

Transistor's setup still blows my mind to this day. The Process role mechanic was incredibly intriguing, one of the coolest roles I've ever seen, and the game's setup overall was consistently engaging.

Posted: **Sun Mar 05, 2017 9:27 pm**

I voted Transistor k

Posted: **Sun Mar 05, 2017 9:27 pm**

Mad Max is probably the best Syndicate game I've played to date. I wish I'd played in Transistor now, it must have been an excellent game. I still regret having to bail on GY!BE, and I'm also glad to see Rocky & Bullwinkle getting some recognition. That was a fun game.

Hot Dog sounded depressed on the comm. "I just attacked a world that seemed so happy. I radioed them to apologize and they said not to worry about it. What a jewl."

Let me tell you though, that game was so stressful at end game that I just lost all motivation for a whole load of games afterwards, so when it came to Monkey Island I just could not be fucked. Thank Scotty for the win there.

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.
