Voting for John and Adam because John is comedy gold everytime he's on and I really like Adam Sessler.

#5 Posted by Grimmy616 (369 posts) - 1 year, 23 days ago

If it were Adam Sessler's hat it would win. But alas.

sess was also on the last GDC podcast!

How's this gonna work if say Jaffe and Vignocchi win? If you took the votes for Vignocchi and Sessler and Varanini and Sessler, then maybe Sessler beats out Jaffe and the actual winners should bee Sessler and Jaffe, but the poll won't reflect that. Not sure if that makes sense but basically you would need two separate polls to get the true winners right?

Gotta go with Johnny and The Hat. Fridays on TBS.

Damn, making tables with images and links. Nightmare. Can't make it all pretty no matter how much I try.

Voting for Johnny V only because he is the goddamn Johnny V

#12 Posted by Winternet (7349 posts) - 1 year, 23 days ago

@ADAMWD: It's a tournament. Johnny is only going against Giancarlo and Jaffe is only going against Sessler. Check the main thread for a better understanding.

Someone with photoshop skills should make a new banner because this one is pretty sad.

Love the idea!

#14 Posted by SSully (3795 posts) - 1 year, 23 days ago

Jaffe and Johnny is the true dream team. Both of them are loud, hilarious, and surprisingly insightful.

#15 Posted by Manhattan_Project (1903 posts) - 1 year, 23 days ago

Johnny V and Sessler 4 life!

#16 Posted by Winternet (7349 posts) - 1 year, 23 days ago

@Jolt92: Indeed, the production values of this are through the roof :) 2 minutes on Paint and done.

#17 Posted by TheSouthernDandy (2912 posts) - 1 year, 23 days ago

Man this was a tough one. Both Giancarlo and Sessler are awesome but I mean cmon. CMON! Johnny/Jaffe for this one.

#18 Posted by 0blivion (216 posts) - 1 year, 23 days ago

Add an option for Vinny/Vinny and I will participate.

Maybe even Vinny/JohnnyV.

#24 Posted by Dalai (6212 posts) - 1 year, 22 days ago

Vignocchi/Sessler all the way... although I have nothing against Varanini.

As for Jaffe, he can eat, sleep, and play a dick.

#25 Posted by MistaSparkle (2075 posts) - 1 year, 22 days ago

Guess this is probably as good a time as ever to bump this:

JV and Jaffe all the way! No disrespect to Sessler or Giancarlo, of course, just JV and Jaffe have the best stories.

#26 Posted by Ryuku_Ryosake (138 posts) - 1 year, 22 days ago

Yeah its obviously going to be Johnny V. and Jaffe. Although on cannot dismiss the hat of legend. I almost voted for Giancarlo for his tangental involvement in the Greatest Moment injGiant Bomb history.
