My list is: Phil Genisto Bisqwit Morimoto SleepZ I'd vote for Terimakasih, but he's only done runs for one game. No offense if I left you out, I haven't seen every movie here.

BoltR, TheAxeMan, nitsuja, Blublu, Ogreslayer (sorry for forgetting the exact spelling =P), Zoizite, Teri...these guys have only made a couple or a few movies each, but are consistently high-quality. For people who've done lots of movies well, I would say: Bisqwit Walker Boh Phil Genisto SprintGod Arc Sleepz FODA -Josh
but then you take my 75 perchance chance of winning, if we was to go one-on-one, and then add 66 and two-thirds ch...percents...i got a 141 and two-thirds chance of winning at sacrifice

Is this award suppose to be best signal/noise ratio, or just player who has the most high quality runs?

BoltR: Best signal to noise ratio sounds like a good way to put it. Also someone with a few runs under their belt. If you just play one or two games, there's not much to vote on, to be objective, you really have to see how that player handles very different situations in a manner that suggests whatever future movies this person makes you can expect quality.

If for honesty, you want apologies, I don't sympathize.

I nominate Phil for having ignored everything i said about battletoads and finding out the most amazing movements. I know genisto helped him, and also, genisto made the amazing mario 3 improvement over my WIP. So i nominate him too. Phil Genisto

Phil Genisto Walker Boh Bob Whoops is also worth mention. His Umihara Kawa Se run is breathtaking, especially if you've played the game. (Its controls take days to get used to. And this from an SNES game.)
If life were an RPG, I'd be an NPC.

for the number of high quality runs they have produced both separately and together, it's a coin toss between phil and genisto.

Genisto Nitsuja Sleepz Zoizite Since publishing movies that will be obsoleted lowers the signal/noise ratio, there are many players I won't nominate, including Arc, Bisqwit and Walker Boh or even Morimoto.

Looking at Nitsuja's runs (except MMX3) seem to be very good, so I nominate him too.

Hard to say here which people think deserved the nomination more than others, so basically I took what was nominated and checked to make sure they made a few movies. Arc Bisqwit FODA Genisto Morimoto Nitsuja Phil SprintGod SleepZ Walker Boh Zoizite If anyone things someone deservant is missing, explain now, since the poll will be up in ~2 days. If you also think no way in the world should someone here be in the poll, explain now.

To my great surprise, no one has nominated FractalFusion. But then, I suppose no one has made a Pokémon TAS and learned how unbelievably hard they are. The only people with published Pokémon TASes - Primorial#soup, Tilus, FractalFusion, and KirbyMuncher, have not posted here yet. We are the only ones who know how hard it is to make a solid run for a Pokémon game. FractalFusion is notable because he has 2 published runs and is working on a 3rd, whereas the closest anyone else has come is Primo, with 2 published runs of the same Pokémon game.

To my even greatest surprise, you've completely failed to notice that the posts in this thread are from 2005. 2005 is way before all but one FractalFusion's runs (and that one run still was made half a year after the actual awards). The Pokemon runs were made in 2006 and 2007. Seriously.

Yeah, dude, who cares about 2005 anymore? Just admit that these time-based award thingies were a bad idea.
put yourself in my rocketpack if that poochie is one outrageous dude
