No surpirse - The members have no love for SWG. When it first came out I had no qualms with it, as everyone else. I had no idea it was loathed that much though.. |

Im surprised DARK AND LIGHT didnt get any more hate than it did.
The devs still owe me money for the month i paid without even getting into the game. I pretty much gave up after the 6th letter i sent them.. I managed at least to cancel the subscription . |

You might as well announce that SWG has received a special "Llifetime Dechievement" award and shelf it for these kinds of competitions. With as much hate as it's generated, it wll continue to "win" for many more years.
I miss early SWG too. /sniff |

LOL well I posted this up on the official SWG forums and it lasted all of 3 minutes before being deleted. Should have added in a forum Nazi category.

swg seduced me, got me into bed, told me she loved me, gave me the best night of my life and then stole my wallet, wrote "I am gay" in permanent marker on my forehead, had a sex change, and married my mother. Why'd that she/man whore have to marry my mother!?
(warning - not all of the above is metaphorically accurate) |

2006 was a horrible year for new releases. Nuff said.

Heh, Dan picked the same games for every category as I did except for most likely to be cancelled, which I chose Horizons. The man's got good taste

I am very surprised you didn't award SWG/$OE any awards yourself, but to each his/her own. There are certainly many games deserving of many of the dishonors you offered (DAoC, DnL being two who stand out in my mind) but I truly doubt that no company has so persistently taken so many missteps, said so many wrong things, and just flat out pissed off so many as $OE has with SWG. SWG has long been the poster child for "What Not to do With an MMO" and until $OE takes strong steps to appease its subscribers, it's going to continue to win many awards in these kinds of contests.
