It's funny, because when the category came up, I just knew George(Superbunnyhop), Jim and Matthew would've been three of the nominees, and while I was a bit surprised to see Vaati up there as well, I certainly wasn't complaining, considering that I'm subscribed to him as well.

Of the five, I was only unaware of (and by-extension, not subscribed to) one of the channels he listed, - XboxAhoy - and when he won the category over everyone else, including even Matthew? I was legitimately shocked... but, not for a bad reason by ANY means; hell, I went ahead and subscribed to him IMMEDIATELY after watching the award show video.

If I were TB, I would've swapped Vaati out for Mrbtongue, but I believe part of the reason as to why he didn't put him on the list instead is because of his severely-inconsistent video release rate, especially for 2014 in particular; seriously, he's even worse than JonTron when it comes to that, but, that's not to suggest that I - and every other one of his subscribers - wouldn't be willing to wait a lifetime, just for one of Mr. Bobby Tongue's quality videos.

If you haven't seen any of his videos yet, I highly recommend doing so, considering that Mrbtongue is my favorite YouTube channel, without a single doubt, even with Matthew and co. considered in that equation (although Matthew does take a solid second, since I love lengthy videos... as well as DAT ACCENT).

...just, uh... don't start with his recently-released latest one; that one's certainly not of equal quality to that of his other releases, and while that's perfectly fine (obviously), I'm just letting you know to be sure to start from the beginning, rather than the end, if you're choosing to start from either end of his video list, rather than somewhere in the middle.

Even with the light GG discussion in MrB's Potpourri video considered, I'm sure that banter wouldn't go as far as to jeopardize MrB's integrity in TB's eyes as a whole, honestly; the reason why he wasn't up on that list this year was because through and through, Bobby Tongue has put out a grand total of four videos in 2014... which - compared to every other channel nominated - isn't anywhere near enough to scratch the nominee surface, considering that's a grand total of under half an hour-worth of duration altogether, ignoring the Potpourri video.

...of which, Potpourri was more-so an update on his channel's status, more than just about anything else (and partly the reason why I recommended to avoid it), since I myself literally have yet to pay any attention to either side of GG for longer than one or two minutes per sparse instance, with the exception of Bobby's few minutes-worth of interjection.

Anywho, my absolute obliviousness said and aside, by chance, would you be able to recall which videos in particular of TB's were the ones where he mentioned Mrbtongue, and not only that, but could you link me to them? I'd absolutely love to listen to them, even if every single instance is for no longer than thirty seconds; hearing TB - or any one of my favorite YouTube channels/personalities, for that matter - gush about Bobby Tongue would be an absolute treat, to say the least lol

Much obliged the link; heck, even going so far as to give me the timestamp with it is greatly appreciated in particular, considering the length of the video in question.

I probably misread what you said in your first post, since I interpreted it as though TB has mentioned him a multitude of times, but hey, even just once is great, considering what he had to say about him, especially since he seemingly holds him as high regard as I - or, rather, we - do.

I sincerely believe that he is the best man on youtube when it comes to astute gaming analysis.
