My last top ten is finished. In the interest of not spoiling anything, I'll make you click the link for yourself to find out.

Copied from a later post in the topic:

Some special thanks are in order. Firstly to RPG, who, even though he didn't always fulfil his quota, on time, has persevered with what was essentially my idea, generally agreed with my decisions (sometimes at the expense of the validity of the ranking itself), and taken on a share of the work that could reasonably have been thrown back on me, as it was this time.

Secondly, as already mentioned, to Rolken, without whom this idea would never have come to fruition because we'd all still be competing with each other by proxy.

Third, to SM who steadfastly corrected every single mistake I made during the course of the Top Tens' lifetime. And there were lots of them, particularly in this iteration because of the lack of a time machine.

And finally, to everyone who contributed to the fun of the Top Tens every six months by speculating, posting random gibberish in the topic, or just waiting with bated breath for the next selection.

I'll be taking "applications" for the right to "host" the next round of Top Tens for the fifth anniversary whenever you feel like enquiring. Until then, have fun and keep on trucking!

In which SEGA bows to reality.

Most of the stuff is already known. It's confirmed for PS2/Wii/PS3/360, and there's "four new modes" they apparently don't want to tell us about yet. Aside from that, there's seven continents (zones) on the shattered world, you collect emeralds, at night you're combatty wolf Sonic, Christmas 08, 3D / 2D, yadda yadda. Notably, they say it's been under development for three years, though that could mean anything from 100 people cranking out material to some guy musing whether Sonic would make a better vampire or zombie.

edit: A new mostly-the-same-but-some-different-parts trailer.

Everyone's not-so-favorite party game is now up on TSC. Join the fun! :D

Most mini-games are currently up. I'm considering adding 1P mode, but I'm not sure how the charts for that should work. Rings might be good. Number of steps to the Precioustone might be another idea. Any suggestions?

Feel free to make fun of him :(

Ever since the inception of the Sitewide Rankings, and probably for some time prior, I have been proud to sit atop the tree as the most consistent player at TSC. I say that because I have encountered some especially fierce competition in my time here, and I do not by any stretch consider myself the best player at TSC in the face of that.

Today, we honour a new champion. One who has been put through all kinds of persecution: for being black, for using the standard controller to play Guitar Hero, for defending Sonic 06, for failing...

And yet, while staying true to who he is, he is the new champion. Stand up and cheer, even if it's for my demise.

Congratulations, DarkspinesSonic.
