First Annual IOT Awards

[Tani Coyote]

Interesting concept. I might join in.

I like Tani's games but I'm less keen on some of his schismatic tendencies.

I don't see how being schismatic is relevant to my GMing ability, but that's just me...

 

[Patriotic_Fool]

I nominate tani for most handsome GM.

 

[Mosher]

I'd advise taking out the "Worst x" awards, as they serve no purpose other than to belittle people, and might very well get the mods breathing down your back. IIRC, they were hesitant to give approval to the concept of the mafia awards in the first place (although that was two years ago).

QFT, I suggest that we all take heed to this advice.

 

[JohannaK]

Robert has a point. A very good one.

 

[GenMarshall]

What point? He didn't list any! He just listed "seriously, again?". Nothing more, nothing less.

It would be like me listing Tani's nation and his cast of characters the "worst of x" just because he incorporated elements of the Sonic Franchise (including the infamous Enerjak) into his plays and listing my reasons as "seriously, again?". Same with Mosh's Angolia. But I don't belittle other people for their choice on their nations and their themes and actually refrain from voting for the worst whatever category.

I would nominate my Angola as worst nation if I could since I only use it out of lazyness
