In other news, RainbowYoshi has asked me to co-host with him for the 2012 newcomer of the year competition. I'm accepting bribes. :)

Wasn't that a semi disaster last year? I didn't really pay attention that much but didn't the votes get all fucked up?

Judge for yourself...

My prediction threads:

Wii U will sell under 40m units (made on 14th September 2012)

PS Vita will sell under 20m units (made on 30th September 2012)

Wii U will sell under 7m in 2013 - I was right

Halo 4 first 9 weeks sales prediction

PS4 to be down YOY in 2015

Well the newcomer of 2011 has already left us, which means 2012 auto-wins

Didn't Ninpie win?

I'm on Twitter @DanneSandin!

Furthermore, I think VGChartz should add a "Like"-button.

2011 users are slightly superior in my opinion. Lots of strong, entertaining personalities in there.

HappyDolphin counts? I think he once said that he wouldn't allow for that... or maybe I'm making it up.

Anyway, no. My view point isn't biased.

Of course not, Nintendopie.

JK, we're all a little biased.

2011. I know 5 or 6 of those you named, but (no offence to them) I don't know any of the 2012 guys. But to be fair I was a lot more active posting a while back than I am now.

I want your original avatar back

Haha I liked it better too but a few people kept hassling me to change it! I think a change back could be in the cards!

And I'm shocked how nobody has asked me to change Hitler on a sled, but a funny fat guy got requests to change...go figure.

I actually really liked the funny fat guy.

Yes, ninpie "won". There was foul play though, because everytime one of his rounds was up he pm'd everybody begging them to vote for him. It was a hollow victory.

It's pretty much unanimously accepted throughout the chartz that I'm the rightful winner.

My prediction threads:

Wii U will sell under 40m units (made on 14th September 2012)

PS Vita will sell under 20m units (made on 30th September 2012)

Wii U will sell under 7m in 2013 - I was right

Halo 4 first 9 weeks sales prediction
