Also Kashogi Stogi isn't a new member either, it's a new account by an older poster. I think it's his second change as well?

Nemo_23 or whoever for least missed poster!

Best/Worst Use of Wii Controls:

BEST - WarioWare: Smooth Moves

I don't think this even deserves a nomination for that. There's a lot of minigames that are a bit awkward, some have noticable lag and glitches, and the main pointer in the game is even a bit laggy and lame, it doesn't even rotate. It's pretty minor overall but there are enough games with no control flaws at all to push this out of any list.

GoldenPhoenix · « **Reply #37 on:** January 19, 2008, 04:36:01 PM »

WarioWare had some really creative uses for the Wiimote so I support that nomination.

NWR_pap64 · « **Reply #38 on:** January 24, 2008, 03:29:27 PM »

Man, I am seriously lagging behind with this...

The thing is that I've been very lazy and crappy lately, but I will at least make the voting thread this week, before the month ends.

But before you do, one question...

Which voting method do you prefer?

1. Sending the votes via PM

2. Voting in the thread:
Example:
Game of the year: Mario Galaxy
Best Wii game: Galaxy

etc. etc.

BlackNMild2k1 · « **Reply #39 on:** January 24, 2008, 04:48:37 PM »

Vote by PM, that way we have to wait for the Awards thread to find out the winners.

Kairon · « **Reply #40 on:** January 24, 2008, 05:56:07 PM »

I'm cool with voting via PM. Jyst make sure your mailbox has space!

KDR_11k · « **Reply #41 on:** January 24, 2008, 07:27:27 PM »

Wow, that's a looooooooong list. Can't even be arsed to read it, never mind vote.

First of all I was born in 1982 and my name was rat_born_in_1982 not 88.

Second off all, what happened to this?

what happened to this?

Good games started coming out for Wii and we forgot about killing time with pointless forum games.

animecyberrat · « **Reply #45 on:** April 18, 2008, 04:01:01 PM »

Liar! This was posted just before the start of that Star Wars Mafia. Which just ended right before Brawl came out.

that Baby guy · « **Reply #46 on:** April 18, 2008, 05:32:32 PM »

No, no, the Star Wars Mafia ended after Brawl came out.

Additionally, it never really ended, and this was posted well before it even began.

NWR_pap64 · « **Reply #47 on:** April 18, 2008, 07:42:12 PM »

Dammit rat! Why did you have to bump this thread? -_-

But in all seriousness, I have to be honest here. At first, I WAS eager on doing this. But being unemployed, bored and depressed I lost my interest in a lot of things, this being one of them. I just wanted this thread to die and hope no one would notice.

Sorry if anyone was looking forward to this, but my desire to move on died and now that I have a job I doubt I will ever get this off the ground again. Not to mention its terribly outdated.

animecyberrat · « **Reply #48 on:** April 18, 2008, 09:05:06 PM »

So can I just be declared your favorite poster and let the thread die then?

RABicle · « **Reply #49 on:** April 19, 2008, 10:26:08 PM »

Forum awards are bullshit though, they generate unneeded board drama and turn away newbies.
