Sorry about the delay in posting! I would like to say the New Year was full of alchomohol but unfortunately it was full of coldy flu-y illness!
It’s been a crazy year, full of server crashes, fighting with corrupt databases, resurrections and return to nearly former glory! Just want to say thanks to all who have stuck around and I still love laughing daily at all your comments!
Also just want to thank the Tag Wizard who has been a huge help to me this year! May it continue on over 2016! Happy New Year!!
First, the top rated cover of last year:

JuanPaul Comments: This was the album cover art Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham had proposed for Rumors. Mick wasn’t too keen on it. Good to see it’s been re-purposed.

Frank Comments: What was that about Baen book covers being like shooting fish in a barrel? These two ladies are providing way too much exposed target below the waistline for pointy and edgy devices.

Good Show Sir Comments: What’s the point of carrying that ginormous sword if Fishfighter isn’t going to use it?

Tom Noir Comments: “Don’t use your fearsome claws and thick, scaly hide for protection, dragon! Use this unwieldy sword and shield instead! And for God’s sakes, wear a loincloth, we’re civilized here.”

Piper Comments: It isn’t exactly fantasy/science fiction. It’s psychology. The longer you look the more insane it gets (E.G. Eagle heads in crystals).

Good Show Sir Comments: Unfortunately I never got to play this, I like to think it would be just as epic as the box art.
