The Affiliates Thread: Friends of GNamer - Please Welcome... GRcade!

I should note that, for those looking for some more gaming votes to vote in, GRcade are doing some votes of their own. Completely different layout, natch, but worth a gander for some maybe? Also they're doing most anticipated games of 2019, but you can tell from the poll at the top what a load of bobbins that is.

(This definitely isn't just here to try and convince OR to vote in our awards. )

I think those are worse than ours, best audio etc really.

I'm not surprised about PS4 being the top of the poll with Death Stranding, The Last of Us Part II, Ghost of Tsushima all sort of planned for 2019.

Some words from our affiliate, today:

...Gnamer gnome...

That is clearly a goblin and not a gnome dude.

Why would Gnamer's logo be a goblin?

Look at their logo and tell me that's a gnome. Tell me one time in your life you've ever seen a gnome that looks like that. It's clearly a goblin.

Herdanos wrote:

I had made a (perhaps incorrect) assumption that the intention was that that thing was a gnome, simply because both the words gnome and Gnamer are spelt with the GN combination - one that is generally pronounced in English with a silent G, which is fairly uncommon at the start of a word (you know all this already)

Grackler lore please

And a fun fact I learned recently - the logo version was drawn in Colors 3d for the 3DS

Is a Grackler more similar to a Gnome than a Goblin?

JAS: Is our grackler more a gnome or a goblin?  I'm presuming earth-elemental gnome rather than ruddy-faced garden variety. (Full discussion here for those who want to find out what he apparently looks like in Star Wars terms.)

It's funny to see a silly little thing I drew fairly quickly kick up a debate like this.

A grackler is a grackler. He will take the form of your worst nightmare & will be waiting in the dark when you least suspect it.

Clearly we need Smurf to draw us a new version in Art Squool. Anyway, glad that's cleared up! Also we now know that Jas' worst nightmare is a green goblin-gnome thing in a ringmaster's outfit.

You think I could draw my worst nightmare? That's the grackler in a good mood.
