    Is this that thing that Keely is doing? At first I was like what weird website is this, but then I realized its a professionally done weird website. Also they could not have picked a better picture of Jeff, expect maybe the screen cap with him watching underage anime girls for UPF.

    Also their game of the year choices made me realize how disappointed I have been with 2014, the year of the 4 star game.

    Weird to call your category "Trending" and then have a near 10 year old picture of one of your nominees.

    What is this unbridled corruption of a judge being a nominee for an award at this most prestigious of award shows!? Time to start an incredibly annoying twitter movement.

    I think this is hilarious, but go Jeff?

    It'll be even better if he wins and Keighley calls him Gertzman.

    They could have asked him too since he's on the jury. Collusion!

    Nah. It wants you to use facebook or twitter to even vote. Stupid. I know why (they want to cut down on troll votes), but it's still dumb and I'm not using twitter or facebook that way.

    I voted for Jeff because I don't want either PewDiePie or TotalBiscuit to win

    (sorry fans of both of those guys, I just don't like them)

    @dreffen: TB qualifies as more of a professional than Jeff for the most part, doesn't mean you have to like him for it. Obviously Pewdiepie is the embodiment of the apocalypse.

    Aww I was gonna vote but the whole Facebook/Twitter thing is a barrier.

    Anyway, I find it fucking hilarious seeing the well shot pictures of Totalbiscuit and Pewdiepie right next to that picture of Jeff.

    I really hope that Jeff won't be able to make it to the show and his client Dr. Tracksuit will have to accept on his behalf.

    In what world does he? This one?

    No one should take Total Biscuit seriously. Or, really, any youtuber.

    A vote for Jeff is a vote against stupid Twitter based fan votes. Also a vote against the other garbage on that list.

    I'm sure Pewdiepie will get vote-bombed into winning, but damn right I'll vote for Jeff for such a dumb thing. (protip: delete the premade Tweet and just put in whatever, it'll still count, I think... unless they're adding up the actual tweets)

    Man, it would be so amazing if Jeff wins this with this dumb picture.

    @dreffen: Dude wears a suit. A suit! Also he's bald. Hell he just sounds like a businessman; which is kind of odd for what he does. Calling Jeff a "Professional" is ridiculous, no one would like him if he was a professional.

    Ha, you fools are being played. This "award" category only exists to get these people's respective audiences talking about the awards show on social networks. You have been tricked into being their marketing.

    Here let me put it this way: One is an individual who has his head incredibly far up his own ass and is an MRA douchebag, the other has been doing this enthusiast press thing for a long time.

    Instead of a sticker it's a scarlet letter that goes onto your twitter or facebook account.

    @dreffen: Being an MRA is also most certainly an aspect of being a professional; that basically describes 99% of the business world. In a contest of Suit vs Not Suit determining which one is a "suit" is quite easy, you see Suit is much more of a "suit" than not suit. Jeff Gerstmann should be up there against himself is the extent of your argument so far, I'm going to get really angry about this award that everyone's mocking.

    Couldn't disagree more, Jeff is one of the most respected journos in the business.

    Now that you think about it...he is the only one in the list with his real name...that should be enough to know who is the most "professional"....

    Would've voted but I dont have a twitter or facebook account. Do the numbers indicate the current placings or are some nominees just randomly attributed a larger picture.
