A full 27 AARs were listed in this category and the final result was a closely contested thing. A mere 0.1 of a point separates the eventual winner from our runner up. Further to that, only 0.5 of a point separates the winner from our bronze winner! (As I say every time...your vote counts and HOW you vote counts as well. ) With that said, we have our winner and the 2020 Gameplay AAR of the Year is...
And as stated, the runner up followed very closely behind...
Our 3rd place then goes to...
Multiple AARs were also given nomination showing we have a plethora of that thing we do here:
We see some few writAARs mentioned multiple times above, as well as a nice mix of longstanding works and new ones. Best I can tell, there is also a fairly good mix between games so our base effort remains here in AARland with gusto! Every mention above means that one or more of our voters considered yours the best or favorite of 2020 and every nomination should be considered a testament to your work in this past year. Many congratulations to all and most especially to @Kovax for not only writing in HoI3 but also starting this work fairly close to the deadline. That speaks to the quality, surely.
Now come one, come all to offer your own congrats and look forward to our next winning announcement (possibly tomorrow, but definitely by Sunday.)
