short version: nominate Mass Effect 2, post here to confirm you did so, and you will be richly rewarded with a personalized and customized image selected by yo & Ng
---

long version: Contest super-fans may remember 100 Glorious Asses for Goldeneye 007, a successful 2015 rally that resulted in GE earning an 8 seed in the bracket (where it defeated Diablo II before putting a serious scare* into #1 seed Skyrim). You probably DON'T remember 100 Glorious Asses for Spider-Man, because SB banned him despite having more than enough noms to make the cut in 2018. Well, your Show hosts have returned to promote a new entrant for 2020:

Mass Effect 2

Do the right thing, Board 8!

We have to give everything, even if that means our lives. We will stop at nothing. We will fight for the lost.

(also, butts)

Oh also, remember to keep one of your slots open for the Guru choice (assuming you joined that Contest in 2018).

Indeed, ME3 made the overwhelming power of this series evident to the entire world. Unfortunately it also unleashed a force of devastation never before seen!

(Well, except two other times.)

For 2020 let's support ME2; all of the love and incredible raw GameFAQs strength, none of the backlash!

Seriously, Mass Effect 2? All this rally will do is score it a 1-seed instead of a 2-seed. Also, I haven't even played it, but I might nominate it anyways for the sake of The Show.

Mass Effect 2 is a giant recruitment drive with like three total story missions attached to it. I'm not saying it isn't a good game, but I don't understand why everyone loves it so much.

What's your point?

That the game doesn't make a lot of sense. Oh no, the galaxy is in danger. Let's go run all over the damn place to pick up ten isolated people so we have just the task force we need (for what, exactly?) and then put our imminent destruction on hold to run a favor for each one. I mean, it's like one step above a dating sim in that regard, and it isn't like the action and combat is all that amazing. The writing is engaging and the suicide mission is certainly memorable, but it's one of those games that falls apart really quickly if you even take half a step back and look at what you're doing.

The action and the combat is really good, actually. And the fact that it's character-centric rather than plot-centric is what makes it so good. Loyalty missions are the best.

Mass Effect 2 is my second favorite game of all time because I love running around the galaxy helping 10 unconnected people come together and then run around the galaxy a second time resolving their daddy issues

Unicornically the best story of the 4 games, just a bunch of fun character pieces woven together by big action spectacles

It's like dudebro star trek and I absolutely love it

That being said I have no room on my nominations list for it and I know it'll make it without my help

Also these asses dont work on me I'm not straight enough

Speaking of which, I updated the Guru nomination history page, if anyone would like a refresh.

I also randomly decided to make a page for the Battle Challenge. It's going to be a wild ride this year, BotW matches aside... hopefully @Steiner would be willing to run this for us again in 2020?

swirl needs help to bring the All Time Guru Ranks up to date, post here if you'd like to assist.

Ngamer64 posted...
Okay here's the new Sheet for the All Time Ranks.

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1olGspZNj6qJukOConhbWXqkg8wsHYfrDkWDkoM5h0A0/edit?usp=sharing

If anyone would like to help bring it up to date, post here. I'll need your e-mail address to share it out.

Basically you would go to Chars 07 in the sheet and the Guru page for the results in a different tab

http://thengamer.com/guru/CB6/

And get the final scores entered for everyone, their new running total will auto update. Then so forth for the next 9 Contests that followed.
