I don't blame you for being skeptical. The reason I don't think he is scamming is because it would blow up everything else he does on youtube and whatnot. It would be a pretty small payout to destroy his credibility that he depends on for his "day job". He doesn't strike me as that short sighted.

The awards may end up being a shitshow because he doesn't know what he is doing, but it wouldn't be intentional.

If anything it's less scammy than "The Game Awards" or almost any other GameJourno (or any-Journo) stuff. It's up front, pay and get a vote.

I don't even know who were talking about, but has that ever stopped any other YouTuber?
