Consider this note on indy game producer Cheapass Games web site. Cheapass is one of two game companies that can sell me a game, sight unseen. The streak says more about the competition than their products.
Congratulations to Us!
Just as we did in 2000, Cheapass Games swept the loser's bracket at the Origins Awards, capturing none of the six awards for which we were nominated. Nominees for the best games included U.S. Patent No. 1, Witch Trial, BRAWL: Catfight, and Girl Genius: The Works. Our games lost the awards to vastly inferior products due to many factors, including negligence, incompetence, favoritism, aliens from space, El Niño, loopholes in the tax code, and mice. Cheapass Games is proud to lose so many awards at once, and reminds all the winners that it's an honor just to be nominated 23 times. (via Steve Jackson Games, who did win some awards this time around...)
