The Escapist's Webby Wins

[ZedAvatar]

Congratulations on the well-deserved win!!!

 

[Micalas]

What's this People's Voice BS? The webby's are saying, "Hey, we know that you all didn't vote for Martha Steward but fuck you. We don't give a shit and therefore are giving the real award to a group people didn't care enough to vote for more."

It's the "The ignorant masses voted incorrectly so we are giving you the plebian runner up award."

 

[Hippobatman]

Well, guys, you deserve it.

This site is my home. My internet home, and you keep it in such good shape. For that you receive heartfelt congratulations from me, and I'm proud to have voted for you, for us and thus, the gaming lifestyle.

Spoiler: This is for all you guys out there!

Eat up! =)

 

[The Wooster]

All me.

Just sayin'.

 

[JohnnyDelRay]

top notch guys. Here's to more people recognizing games as a legitimate medium, standing on its own two, and not being just for kids. It is it's own medium, with all the strengths, weaknesses, dramas, insight, influences, creativity, prejudice, beauty and ugliness that all the others do.

 

[Sonic Doctor]

Congratulations, you all earned it!

Perhaps doing too good a job?

I think there are times I spend too much time on here. =P

 

[Stammer]

Congratulations, Escapist! Hooray for voting!

 

[K4RN4GE911]

Congrats goes to everyone who has voted and the guys at the Escapist for doing what they do best. As Yahtzee quoted once, "Praise and internet pussy aplenty." Awesome job well done.

 

[Grahav]

Not feeling very original now, so a mere "Congratulations" to the Escapist.

By the way Russ, you spelled "The Escapist" wrong in the final paragraph.

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!

Relax, boss, I already took care of it.

Because of that, the Webby is being taken away!

NOOO!! We'll lose our reputation of being grammar-nazis! QUICKLY, BAN EVERYONE WHO DOESN'T USE THE PROPER "THERE"!!!.

Quick! Erase all posts referencing it!

What about the posts referencing the references!

THOSE TOO! EVEN THIS ONE!

And the Vise Versa!

CINDER BLOCK is Ready!

Don't worry guys! Not only am I going to making sure these posts are destroyed by burning down Escapists' servers, I'll personally come to all yer houses and disembowel you, and then perform hara-kiri myself! No evidence or witness should be left behind!

I'll save this celebration by killin' y'all!

For future reference, this is the point at which it got weird. FYI.

"Weird" is the understatement of the century...

OT: Great job on all three awards, especially the lifestyles one. Take that, Martha!! XD

Congratulations, Escapist crew! It was an honor to vote for you, and I'm so glad your hard work paid off.

The Joystiq podcast was stunned that they were losing to you guys. The threatened to quit the show if they couldn't win.

lol thats funny shit. who the hell is the joystiq podcast? If they're so big why haven't i found a link to them or something

 

[metal mustache]

excellent! I always knew this site had something in it. I'm here almost every day, and its cause the people who make this magazine care so much about videogames and the gamers who love them too.
