Original Post:
Hey! I did this last year and I'm hoping more of you will get in on it this year. Putting this out a little earlier so more people might see it on the front page before it turns into GOTY City and to minimize influence from staff's choices. Below are the categories from last year sans a couple not really applicable this year. I'll update the page with new categories for this year as they come in and you can edit your posts accordingly. It'd be very helpful if you copy and past the category listed so there is some consistency in format and order when I go to count the votes. Thanks!
Post your picks for GB GOTY Categories!
