We should just rename this the MESHUGGAH award, and don't forgot agwawaf, he did four games (in one)! But IMO, tianwodeai is most deserving of the award this year. However, I'll also nominate HappyLee and Spikestuff.

[2552] PSX Warcraft II: The Dark Saga "Human Campaign" by Flip in 1:17:53.32 great job manipulating the heck out of the AI and getting it to miss again and again, and other great antics. I can't decide which two of these are better, but I love how lucky the bros are in this. [2732] NES Mario Bros. "2 players" by Spikestuff in 07:06.98 [2671] NES Mario Bros. (Classic Serie) "2 players" by Spikestuff in 09:09.64 This might seem weird, but manipulating the level to get Sam (Slick?) to actually help was really impressive to me. [2675] NES Q*bert by unagi in 22:25.42

Why is anything other than [2735] GBA Digimon Sapphire by Noxxa in 31:59.40 even eligible?

mamuuuut for working on some of the highest rated TASs here. CoolKirby too for doing the most TASing on the more exotic Atari 7800.

GoddessMaria15 is probably most deserving of the award. On the other hand, there wasn't much competition this year, and I'm giving brownie points to Mothrayas for being brave enough to TAS a really ridiculous game.

It is kind of amazing how one player TAS'd 7 different categories (and one repeat) of a game in a single year. However let me add Bernka, Shuy_, Flip, and scrimpeh for the action packed TASs they made.

PangaeaPanga who with the longest most action filled SNES TAS this year put in the most game play effort to make an entertaining TAS.

I nominate [2745] Arcade Metal Slug "2 players" by mamuuuut & mtvf1 in 10:44.88. Other than Mothrayas' nom and mine, the only other with high ratings was the golf game.

Strangely enough, I didn't find we had too many really good SNES runs this year. However, [2513] SNES Super Mario World "arbitrary code execution" by Masterjun in 02:25.19 seems to stand above all other TASs ever made. It even got news coverage! However the update to this TAS with the new impossible payload is even better. I'd also consider [2639] SNES Super Demo World: The Legend Continues "all 120 exits" by PangaeaPanga in 2:02:04.49 as a standard well played SNES TAS worthy of TAS of the year.
