I can't seem to find the thread for Douchebag of the Year. Can I write in Hal Halpin and The ECA for this category?
Old 01-12-2010, 03:14 AM   #8
Wait a second cheapy awards in January? wheres the procrastination? Should be at least March lol.

I think there should be a 'Worst Blog" category to go along with the "Best" one.

The first three links in the first post take you to the home page Cheapy. The thread or results for the Cheapy Awards doesn't show up.

Kind of surreal: I belong to a community of people who find deals on video games, and we recognize certain categories and give awards. Doesn't get more niche than that! (Although maybe if there was a group that clipped their left thumbnail every Wednesday while listening to reggae music or something.)

Yeah, a Most Notorious Deal or Worst Public Relations category would be nice. Though, the ECA obviously has that one in the bag. Funny thing is, the ECA Amazon deal could also get Best Deal. Combine the two and you get Most Ambivalent Deal.

It may be time to have a Best Direct Download Deal category. Between Steam, D2D, GOG, and most game consoles, direct downloads are growing dramatically. I know I bought more direct downloads last year than in all years prior combined.

I agree. Digital distribution stores need their own category, along with best digital download deal.

Shouldn't there be a Best B&M Customer Service thread to go with the Best Online Customer Service thread?
Old 01-12-2010, 05:25 PM   #17
We have a best game value category.
How about a biggest game rip off category or worst game value category to along with that?

It would be interesting to see what CAGs consider to be the worst gaming "deals" and most memorable rip offs.

It doesn't make as much sense to me as customer service is more likely to vary from location to location.

Isn't that the whole point of these awards? People voting on which stores they had the best or worst experiences with, which always differs on a person to person, or location to location, basis?

no douchebag of the year category?
