I have absolutely no idea what you just said in the above.

Anyone who doesn't vote Psychonauts in Era 5 is an starfish. Like srsly.

Why is OP extremely late then?

Oh and you were an starfish before. Always going "OHEY DOOD WUR EYEDEE BOODIES LOOK YOU'RE 227 AND I'M 228 HAHAWE'RE SUCH PALS." Nig please I don't even know you.

I'm wondering how much exposure Minecraft is gonna get over this exhibit, because you know everyone is gonna vote for that except for our party pooper on page 1.

So, 29006(BL Forum members) people are trendy little casual-gaming bitches who choose the makers of an incomplete sandbox game over the efforts of a people that have been making games for twenty years, currently have around five-thousand employees, and are a subsidiary of a company that made a profit of over four-hundred-million dollars last year? I guess apple-polishing, boot-licking, ass-kissing, brown-nosing sycophants outnumber people who know what the forget a game is. I'm also somewhat saddened to find that nobody insulted me for choosing the 'CDI-esque' graphic adventure, Blazing Dragons, over the platformer/puzzle/brawler, Dark Savior, and the strategic RPG, Panzer Dragoon Saga. I actually voted for Panzer Dragoon, but I just wanted to see if anyone would notice I bolded the obviously inferior game. I guess they didn't, they only care that I didn't vote for Fadcraft. I hope Notch drops that project like a ton of loving bricks so people quit pulling this bullstuff. We'll see, by March 16 of 2012, what gets featured under the combat and strategy genre of Era Five, and I certainly hope that it was one of the other two.

1: I just checked my email, and they apparently sent a notice to everyone recently about extending the voting time. That's probably what got his attention.
2: You've known me since we registered you dumbass. You just have a low attention span. I've done that since we registered, even. I don't know how you'd forget me over the years and think this is somehow new. And why not? It's fun.

And the clock ticks down towards the announcement of the winning games!

That was the stupidest thing I've heard all day. In fact your whole post was so mind numbingly stupid it's hard to read.

[IsaacKronenFaust]

Well, I can't expect much more than a "you're stupid" insult from you. The pile of synonyms for "sheep" are perhaps a little overboard, but they do suit you well.

Aren't you a clever girl.

You are in no position to make a statement like "I guess apple-polishing, boot-licking, ass-kissing, brown-nosing sycophants outnumber people who know what the forget a game is." when your opinion of a game is based on how prestigious the studio that produced the game is.

If anything Minecraft deserves to go in that museum as a testament to the increasing popularity of great indy games and indy game developers, and how a single man with a great idea for a game can compete with the big budget studios that you seem to idolize.

As a footnote: Have you ever stopped to think that so many people love Minecraft simply for the fact it's fun.

[IsaacKronenFaust]

If it were independents versus other independents, Minecraft would be in a fair position. In such an event, I would think that that games like Darwinia and DEFCON would be more likely to be featured if they didn't leave it up to an online vote.

blaman makes a good point. To further support that, regardless of the size of the studio, games are organized by genre as a standard. Not size of the studio. People don't go into gamestop and go, hm, i'd like to buy a game developed by a studio with 15 million dollars and 2000 employees. Nothing else.

No. Minecraft is in the runnings along with your beloved big studios because, even though it was made by an indie developer, it is fun for people to play, and it has sold. Something else to think about: even though MojangAB doesn't necessarily have thousands of employees, it's for a reason. Watch the 15 minutes of the Minecraft documentary that was made so far; they explain it in that video. As for money, Notch makes upwards of $300,000 a day.
