As long as PewDewPie doesn't mount a Misao campaign, PGWF will get whatever awards the real RMN community thinks it deserves. If he does though, all bets are off ...
Last years misaos have been roflstomps pretty much every time.
Some variation in who wins what this time would be nice.
not gonna happen, brother. casualty of the community.

I'm almost sure that he has no idea that the misaos even exist, so there's that. Then again, all those thousands of downloaders might have decided to stay and check out the site (or at least some of them) so...

I wonder if there's been an influx of members since his LP? Because I'm sure you need to be a member to vote, but not to download.

Also, relevant:
Where have all the mappers gone
And where are all the plots?
Where's the 3-tile-rule commanders
And custom menu-naughts?
Isn't there a battle system
With custom interface?
It's gonna take a super-code to make my game an ace!

I need a misao!
I need a misao to sweep all categories
'Cos my game is so cool
And fun to play, too
Give me one, I'm beggin' please!
I need a misao
I need a misao so people remember my game
'Cos I worked oh so hard
And played all my cards
I want to taste fortune and fame

Sometime after midnight
My eyes itchy and red
Tapping at my keyboard
To meet deadlines with dread
Add another number, another dialogue tree
Test the game for bugs and crashes to make it complete

(Chorus)

There's nothing else that I'd rather do
Than create and make a world
Map it out to look like it's a
Reality

Find graphics, sound and scripts online
Mess around with the database
I can feel its approach
To becoming complete

(Chorus)

Pom Gets Misaos

EDIT: I should really play more games before Misao voting is over...

I'm pretty sure Pom Gets Wi-Fi doesn't deserve all the awards it will win. But if there is just a small percentage of the people who downloaded around to vote for it then all bets are off.

I guess it can't win best demo of the year.
Perhaps you'll need a best rpg of the year so pom can't claim that either.
I voted Pom Gets Wifi as a joke thinking it didn't get any votes and I accident put it in first. I feel so bad now.
@Libby I had to take a moment to belt out a few (or all) of those lyrics to the karaoke version of Holding Out for a Hero. ~<3

@KadyCandy Well, if you don't feel Pom deserves what you voted for, you can always change it!

Finding a new demo of the year is proving difficult... Actually, Fantasia is a candidate if I remember correctly. Perhaps that's what I'll pick for that.

Gourdo, before you do that you oughta play Reincarnation first. If Reincarnation doesn’t hold up to your demo making standards – then vote against it.
Homework Salesman and Pom Gets Wifi will probably roflstomp competition due to the sheer amount of exposure both have gotten. It's really not about popularity alone, it's about exposure as well. Seriously, those are the two games I've been hearing about all year.

Homework Salesman has gotten features galore on RMN and on RMWeb. Pom Gets Wifi has been all over the Tumblrverse and featured on RMN.

Yeah, I'm not expecting Reincarnation to win anything because I feel like one game will be dominating the Misaos again.

I have a lot of mixed feelings about Reincarnation winning anything truthfully but either way I would absolutely hate to see Reincarnation win anything due to popular opinion.
That's why I created the "other" Misao thread, so people can discuss nominations. And actually it seems like people are nominating lesser-known games for Misaos, which is good to see. I encourage you to discuss your opinions on the official discussion thread, I'd like to hear what you think.
Renait and Ronnie are gonna pick up some awards for sure. The Misao Stealing Prince strikes again! XD

I've not played any of those games, so naturally Homework Salesman will win.

I haven't played any of them either, so I'm just going to say the same thing. If Homework Salesman is a featured game, it must be doing something right. It has decent screenshots, too.

Pom Gets Wi-Fi? I admire the attention it has garned which is REALLY impressive, but the humour definitely isn't my cup of tea. As for The Grumpy Knight, Reincarnation, and Skinwalker? I've never even heard of any of them!
