It's that time of year again. Time for Christmas decorations, lots of snow and year-end compilations! Since I think last year's tournament went pretty well using the nomination system, I'm doing it this way again for the year 2013.

So here’s how it’s gonna work:

• You make a list of up to 20 users (you can name only 5 if you want to) you think deserve a place on the tournament (in no particular order)
• The votes will be tallied up until December 31st 2013
• In early January, the top hundred (or maybe less since I might want the tournament to be a bit shorter this time around) users will make it to the tournament which will carry on like previous years.

Rules:

- You cannot nominate yourself (because it’s sad, really)
- You can vote only once.
- The users nominated have to have been active during the year 2013.

Sidenote:

- If someone wants to opt out of the tournament they can say so here.

USERS WHO HAVE OPTED OUT OF THE TOURNAMENT:

- trasharmdsister12
- d21lewis
- Kasz216
- Acevil
- chocoloco
- spurgeonryan
- happydolphin / padib
- Kresnik
- Mr. Khan

I've kept the list of people who opted out from 2012 but if they have a change of mind, they can opt in.

Worst user - F0X
Who is this guy? He's generally level-headed, never gets banned, never takes bets, and doesn't argue for the sake of. He gets along with the majority of the Nintendo fans, but also tolerates most Sony fans (pzeus especially). But most damning of all, he's not a negative Nancy. Yep, I'd say F0X doesn't belong here.

1. RolStoppabe - Rol has really stepped up his game this year. He reviewed our Nintendo community, started a successful line of review threads, and actually trolled me effectively once (I'm still not happy about that). Also, he sided with me on the E3 meltdown business, so Rol has proven to utterly rational.
2. BazilZero - I actually got to know Bazil a bit more this year. Nice guy. He finally bought a 3DS, so his inclusion is a no-brainer.
3. pzeus - I don't need no explaination.

morenoingrato said: Did I just get the boot?

Nope, my next step was to contact you. You'll notice that I removed the line asking for a co-host. So are you still up for it this year?

Opting out, please.

I'll nominate some users in a bit.

It's hard to nominate just 20 users but here's what I came up with.
