Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it, follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Our rules have been updated and given their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!

you should have read the rules
ONLY GAMES WRITTEN BY SOMEONE IN THE GUILD WERE NOMINATED.
Anyways, lol poll thread, and old news.
So that kinda makes this award about as practical as the Spike TV video game awards. Or really even less.
At least they're trying....I guess.
For the record, my winners would probably be whoever localized the Phoenix Wright games.
Hahaha.
We don't do poll threads.
In any form.
