This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Im pretty sure it was voted ironically

This, Starfield winning 'innovation', Cities Skylines 2 winning 'strategy' - pretty sure the infamous hacker known as 4chan was behind this.

When you vote for the Steam awards you have to choose a game for every award to be able to submit it so people just don't care for some and put it any game they liked and enjoyed. Also, a lot of people probably don't read the award's name and just put in anything.

That's simply not true. I skipped multiple categories, including this one, because I didn't have a good answer to give.

Because your didn't want to have all the stupid stickers. You need to vote for something to get them. So people who are just there for the stickers vote for anything.

Edit: saw in the comment before that the author mentioned you needed to vote for all to submit, and that's what you answered to. You are right. You were able to submit single votes.

Could also be they didn't read past the title of the award, tbh.

Which pointed out to me just how little I care about award shows and competitions. The only thing that will come of an ironic vote is unironic positive press.
