All the judges really have to do is watch daily 100. But I will admit its frustrating to see this CoD youtube caster get the #1 spot. All the guy did was take advantage of a mainstream title and milk it for his own profit. It blows my mind that he thinks he deserves this award. It blows my mind how biased you are. Its a popularity contest, not the nobel prize. Breaking News: People in "Vote for Day9" thread biased towards Day9; some posters oblivious as to why. More at 11. " All the guy did was take advantage of a mainstream title and milk it for his own profit."? Really? Because casting a mainstream game means you're taking advantage of it, as we all know(!) and casting games free of charge, man, what a moneywhore. You obviously don't know much about youtube. This guy is making hundreds of dollars for every video he uploads just from ad revenue. Someone with 500k+ subscribers can make well over 100k a year if he consistently puts up videos. Which isn't hard when your frapsing yourself play a video game. More importantly, what has this guy done besides upload videos to youtube? Day9 has attended and casted countless tournaments, organized the king of the beta tourny, and is involved in numerous e-sports projects (most of which are not announced). When it comes to the development of the gaming community and " social media", I don't see how Seananners can say with a straight face that he has contributed more. What other CoD caster have you seen that has anywhere near as many votes? 0.o he's obviously doing well and people like and enjoy watching him. I do agree that Day[9] deserves it but theres no point in getting mad over it. And he has contributed alot, seriously, he has a hell of alot of videos 193 on his account and more on machinima. just because you(i'm assuming)don't like cod, doesnt mean that he hasn't put a lot of effort into it.... and are you seriously suggesting that he started making videos thinking that he would make enough money to live on? really? hmm... even so..... Day[9] KHHHHHHHWAAIAAIIIIIIIITITTTTTINGGGGGG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm not asking how many videos he's uploaded nor do I care if he knew how profitable it would be. I can list off at least 10 other casters that have uploaded just as many videos and are also doing well for themselves.
What I am asking is what separates this one youtube caster from all the others. What has he done to promote gaming other than upload clips of himself playing.
Next time please address my points instead of responding with an elongated version of "you mad bro?".

Nice, 3/6 of the finalists are for SC2
|
Guys remember now that nominations are done, you should 'endorse' day9 now. Basically, vote again >.>
Make sure to make what you say count. It's fun to put the jokes in, but if they actually read a few of the posts, if they're met with heartful words, it may help.
I put: I endorse @day9tv in the Shorty category #gaming because he inspires me to be proud of things I love
|
Any information on when the winner will be announced? I couldn't find any information on that apart from the mentioning of a Shorty Awards Ceremony, but that is not until March 28.
Do we really have to wait THAT long for them to decide?
|
We still need to vote for him. The first voting is over, now we have to "endorse" him and give good reasons why we want him to win.
|
The winners will be unveiled tonight. It may very well be a fun Monday for Mr. Plott ! Does anybody know if he's going to attend the event ?

I'm pretty sure the people who voted for him would say the same about day[9]

Well that's lame...so is CoD. Minecraft is cool, but what is there to talk about in Minecraft? "Hey, this guy is putting this block on another block, Oh!!! It's a sprite from Final Fantasy 1! It should be completed in a couple hours! This is so intense!"

Then they've obviously never watch any Day[9] then :D. haha tbh back in the day when Seananners first commentating they were very informative and helpful to get better at cod then he started Ad libbing and people loved it and he hasn't changed since.

So, is there any results on this?

No, because Day[9] actually talks about the game he's playing. Seananners talks about utter shite while there is a video in the background of him going 41-1 on CoD (which anyone can do btw). When I played CoD, I used to watch other youtubers, but not seananners because I find him extremely annoying.
