Quoted from PismoArcade:Oof...That was brutal. First time I ever tapped out. Have watched every TWIPY ceremony and look forward to them each year.
I miss Zach & Greg.
And the PRODUCTION VALUES they brought with.

Quoted from J85M:Now all we need is to see Todd give Kaneda the people’s elbow! [quoted image]
"Can you smell what the Tuckey's cookin'?"
Quoted from PismoArcade:Agree, but with all due respect, it wasn't just the sound issues.
Agreed. I was just addressing the previous post about the screwed up sound. I thought the whole thing was a train wreck.
I will say I appreciated Kaneda showing some class, though, in thanking his family and supporters. That was actually a high point for me, although I'm not a fan of his show or previous shenanigans. (And yes, I know that's not saying much.)

Having a kid can be pretty humbling and adjust your priorities. I was a tool before I had kids and got sober. But it all came from not knowing my worth and being fixated on things that weren’t really important. It’s why I like to give people the benefit of the doubt.

Quoted from Hayfarmer:Is there a list of the winners ?
Here's the list: Godzilla.
Oh...and Halloween for the topper, which Godzilla doesn't have.
Now you're caught up. You're welcome.
Quoted from GravitaR:Cringe worthy, had to turn off.
Actually the Oscars are more cringeworthy and woke that no one gives a shit about.
The only thing I care about the awards is Next Level winning Best Pinball Location along with TNT Amusements winning Best Pinball YouTuber and they both absolutely deserved it 100%.
Hey all, just wanted to make a quick update post here.
Results:
Full results will be posted soon, will get those up as soon as possible.
A/V issues:
I am truly truly sorry for the audio/video issues that were experienced. This will be our top priority and will be fixed for next year.
I haven’t had a chance to watch the show yet so I’ll learn more after I watch it too. On hosts, we’ll probably switch that up for next year and keep switching it up every year or two like we’ve been doing. On general production/editing of the show, we’re going to bring in a third party for more assistance next year. We had a lot of fun this year but obviously have areas that need to get much better. By bringing in some extra help we’ll get where we need to be for next year.
Thanks for the feedback and suggestions and please feel to email me if you have any suggestions you want to share privately, my email is [email protected] or just PM me on here. Thanks!

Definitely need to do at least one, maybe two practice runthroughs to work out the kinks. It will make a much smoother show for the one that counts.
Really appreciate your efforts with the awards and show. It's not easy to pull off.

You need a Smith / Rock moment and that will go viral and Make pinball great again.
Its a joke, please don't slap me!

That looked like a corporate elbow

Ca-ca-catch the wave.....
Lurked for a while, I use pinside sparingly, not even sure why I'm posting now except I'm still appalled even after a few days. I'm surprised no one else commented as to the hosts, which I felt was the worst part. I don't want to flog a dead horse in a race I don't even care about, but they (mostly the dude host) are objectively a bad fit. I won't detail my opinion with "evidence", just curious if anyone else felt the same. The awards director is smart to change up the hosts for next year and wrap the announcement in such a way as to offend no one.

Jack Danger is kind of a polarizing guy. Some people love him....others not so much.
I agree that switching up hosts next year is a good idea.
Consider adding a requirement that "homebrew" games cannot be based on commercial game code.
Calling a rethemed Mustang with a ROM hack a homebrew is pretty insulting to the talented creators who have put in the hundreds of hours of hard work it takes to bring up an original game.
Reading this thread had me curious about the show, so I watched it. It was painful to say the least. I was left scratching my head and thinking WTF.
This industry has been on the upswing and was thinking that it would have been much more polished than what I viewed.
You can like or hate Kaneda, Greg, or Zach, but they were the best parts of that entire production!
Consider adding a requirement that the emcees not wear hats that obscure the camera's view of their faces.

One could say the same about off-the-shelf toys in the mod category.
I knew I couldn't win with AMH, so no issue with that, but I did dedicate nearly a year of my life to developing and producing it, ultimately for next to nothing after expenses and paying the hired help well for 11 months to buy the time to make it, so it was disappointing to see a win for something that could be rigged up in a day, especially when the rules say the mod category can't use IP (perhaps only applies if you make it yourself).
Based on the comments from the live feed ("Target" - "K-Mart"), it seems others saw it that way.
Quoted from chuckwurt:No results for best tournament?
Ah we missed that one. We'll get that added tonight after work.

Jacks great at what he does streaming and holding random conversations and chats while playing with viewers, I watch a lot of his streams and all of his reveals but it’s on his terms it’s off the cuff and he’s great that.
The TWIPYs is completely different, it is more of a scripted routine, but it honestly felt like Imoto and Jack didn’t really know what was going on from one minute to the next, a rehearsal or 2 would have likely made a massive improvement.
Can you add rookie of the year? Jack Danger gave kudos to a runner up, but I didn't recognize their name or know what project they were associated with.
Thanks!

That was my daughter, Sophia. She co-designed Silver Falls when she was 10 years old. Silver Falls is a 3rd party P3 game that uses the Heist playfield module. It is a mash-up of a simulation game with pinball. It features a chillhop soundtrack by Scott Danesi!
The player earns points to spend in a shop located in the central shot. Once each room is furnished, a hurry-up mode starts that is unique to each room. For example, you might need to turn the TV on to be entertained, or put out a fire. Hitting a shot will start a combo sequence, randomized. Side targets and crane hits award a temporary multiplier. It's especially fun to tackle the game in co-op or groups using Team Play. There are six different voice actors and dozens of appearance choices for an avatar that you select at game start.
Needless to say, I'm very proud of her, and humbled that I was able to nominate her this year. Silver Falls was my second commercially released game. It was very kind of Jack to shout her out during his acceptance, and it was fun to watch with her. Did I mention that I'm proud? 
Quoted from oldskool1969:TNT for the win
Great stuff for a great bloke and great crew
Well done and long overdue
Thank you!!
Quoted from Acronymicon:The only award I cared about was Todd's, and he won!
Todd, Frank, Curt, and even the twins are all great, and Ive loved that goofy channel for near a decade now.
Glad he finally won.
