Unsolicited opinion, but I would love to see you shake up the way the games are initially tallied/collected onto the list. I've been listening to the Two Tens for several years and it feels as though every year there is debate about the placement of the game (e.g., Kirby this year) that is based upon its initial placement which is, in theory at least, somewhat arbitrary. Maybe even just randomizing the games after the initial cut or the "lockdown" of the 20 games that will be included then seeding them into the list?

2023-01-03 17:20:25 +0000 UTCI just decided to become a Patreon after the GOTY discussion. I have been enjoying your podcasts for a while now and y'all are great, but Janet Garcia's ability specifically to break down games to their cores in just a couple of sentences is simply jaw dropping. Hands down the person whose opinions I completely disagree with (sometimes), who can make me see where they're coming from the easiest. What a great critic, what a great crew.
