I'm super happy (and pretty astounded) to announce that this is the 4th year that the FG Awards has been a thing. I stopped for a very brief moment today and I realised we're super lucky to have something so unique and one of a kind for a family like this. As a reminder for newer FGers, I set up the FG Awards as a way to recognise a few people within the FG family to say thank you for what they have done to help others. I hope that the below is an enjoying read of all our winners, especially with 2 new additional awards for Play of the Game and Top Contributor. Let's not waste any more time to get into 2021's special winners! Young FGer of the Year I think its credit to this guy that even @Diddums thought that he was much nearer 30 due to how he handles himself online, having a laugh with everyone else. Already the most experienced Destiny raider out of everyone, it hasn't stopped him wanting to help the most inexperienced people here at FG. If everyone was as helpful, patient and damn right crazy as him at his age, we wouldn't have a problem when the next generation have to step up and make a difference. Thanks for being a part of FG, Lee'esh. Long may it continue. Winner - @Leeesh13 - Lee'esh FG Noobie of the Year For quite possibly a shy guy to start with, he has really understood the spirit of FG from our first meeting. Willing to try many games with FG where possible and really contribute across lots of topics all over FG. He even raised money for Alzheimer's Association this year which was great to see him share this with us here. Wanting to learn more and not miss out on the laughs we have on Monday Night Football with the FGFC FIFA team and a regular on FG Friday shenanigans, Ant has made himself more than just one of the crowd here this year. Winner - @Antpool84 - Ant Guardian Down Award A close one this year, with many people making the funny epic failures of most FG evenings. Previous winners like @techno and @Diddums had chances as they get shotgunned in the Crucible, alongside @slamminbones sweary outbursts on GT Sport evenings, and @TurboR56Mini epic fails on Nightfalls with the FG Destiny crew. Possibly because his accumulative dying record would probably now challenge any Destiny player in the universe, it's about time Bob was recognised for his great achievements after playing - and dying - so much on Destiny to get all his accolades. I think Bob would spend a whole evening dying over and over if you offered him 5 points off a Triumph. And that's without trying too! Winner - @Baabcat - Bob FG Archbishop of Banterbury He thought his depressive side could be so funny? I didn't. But the fact that he has his own word (Tomerisms) for when he says something so bloody random on FIFA, Rocket League or FG Friday nights, he probably deserves to feel on a special pedestal for a one shiny moment. Always trying to find that annoying little joke that you want to hate but laugh at, Tom is frustrating and fun to have around. Now, if this award goes a little way to helping him calm his deep thoughts he likes to share post midnight on a weekend of gaming then i'm all in! Winner - @LordBaguette - Tom FG Skills Award Similar to how last year's winner Kenny @IRaMPaGe has knocked out some amazing plays that he shares on his PPR and in the Videos section, there's another one here that if you don't check PPRs enough then you'd find way more about your fellow FGers!! Its been a tough end to the year for this one, but let's face it to be on the cusp of 500 - yes, FIVE HUNDRED - Platinum Playstation trophies is actually insane. I've kept up with his updates and he's surpassed a few hundred since he has been here and I sometimes think he'll never stop until he gets into the top 100 in the world, which isn't far away. Paul, I'll be watching for your 500th and after a well deserved break, hopefully to see you hit 600 in the future. Winner - @slamminbones - Paul FG Play of the Game A new award to this year and something that I would defnitely love for more entries into the Video section of all your famous and funny moments next year. This one for me sticks out like a sore thumb, and whilst its not the most ultimately the best goal we've ever scored with F.G.F.C on FIFA 21 this past year, it was an incredible goal and finish to an amazing game early on in the promotion charge from Division 10 to Division 1 in clubs. It also epitomised how that has been such a successful game for FG here with at least 17 FGers joining the club and playing hundreds and in some cases, thousands of games together. Final minute, after having just equalised moments before, a throw-in from one side passed through @Stretch616 , @G_dub52 and to @GazzaGarratt who then launches a huge long ball which could only give us the chance to win - and Lurch provides the scenes with the most emphatic header we've seen on a FIFA game. A quick link to the special moment in our video section can be found below! Last Minute Scenes! Winner - @J-Lurch - James FG Top Contributor If we don't have people here bringing us the latest info and news, alongside contributing to some great conversations then we just wouldn't simply survive. There's been one person that whilst we don't game much online, it hasn't stopped him from being around, sharing and showing others how easy it is to do for every FGer that comes here rather than all the other rubbish places on the interwebz. Its not just the quantity and we probably should recognise his support a lot more than we should have over recent years - even if his opinions can be unpopular at times! James, we wouldn't have this place without you, mate. Winner - @J4MES OX4D - James FGer of the Year Despite being at FG for only 16 months, she has made a monumental difference to the outcome of FG over the past year. Gathering troops, usually at 3am in the morning for her, organising raids and events. This place went from what we thought was an 'active' Destiny clan to having the most active raids we've ever done in the past 7 years of the game being out. Not only supporting this, but supporting other FG Friday events, setting up servers, creating a buzz about FG on topics, interesting viewpoints and actively encouraging new, less frequent people to show up more often around FG. A heart of gold with massive support from her husband Carl @TurboR56Mini too, we wouldn't have been able to give away such incredible gifts as part of the FGFGF, like the two PS5s a few months ago. She's also there for people on the personal level, and like many of you know how I will always be there for you, it is equally seen through what La has done for others behind closed doors. What's even better, is that we haven't had many women as part of FG and to think that someone like this can have such a positive impact on all aspects of FG, its shows how much we've opened our eyes and should be willing to do more for all FGers. Proud to call her my friend at my hour of need, we all appreciate and salute you for the effort you put here, La. Winner - @RenFengge - La FG Hall of Fame It was a delight to see this American pop back into our lives, especially after being pretty ill for a very long time this year - something I appreciate many wouldn't know but lets face it, its why we become best friends here that some of us know this important stuff. Its good to see this lover of all uber-hard games like Dark Souls, Bloodborne, etc back posting and looking forward to his playthrough verdicts and support in 2022 when we all pick up Elden Ring. Thanks for being an FGer for life big man. Winner - @Jason - Jason Aaaand we're done! No one expected 2021 to be as hard as 2020 but we all got through it thankfully. I'm sure some things will continue to be rocky and not always go our way, but i'm pleased to report we're all still here, bringing the heat and good vibes. All of this to make sure we have the best 2022 we could possibly have. Keep being there for each other. You really do not understand the gravity of your presence at FG for others. It surpasses many extraordinary things people can't explain in life. GGFG P.S. I really hope more of you FGers can join the other 36 so far confirmed people all across the world to join us in Wales in November 2022!! >> Biggest FG Meet Up Ever - Nov 2022

Greboth once again cursing the fact we don't have cunt of the year. Myself, cursing the fact we don't have imposter of the year. Well done to all.

Thanks @GazzaGarrattfor the award! my entire life has been leading to this moment

Great write up @GazzaGarratt and well done to all 👏👏👏 I particularly like how Tom's one was accompanied by a bit of a kicking in the balls😅

That's very kind! This means I've won more than Tottenham😎 Delighted to be here still after all these years and a big thanks to Lee for keeping this place running and for everyone else for making it thrive on a daily basis. Shame my online game time is so restricted due to work and family but I will always find time for the forums if I can't actually play.

😂thanks Lee! And congrats to all the winners especially @Leeesh13 who had been an awesome addition and @RenFengge who has just been awesome !!

Congratulations to all the winners!

Congrats to this year's winners 👍

Been about a month since I was on the site so just figured I'd let you guys know I am alive. I ended up getting the rona right before Thanksgiving and was pretty sick for a few weeks with 103f temp for a week straight and unable to even get out of bed for a few days. Took about 3 weeks to get past it all and finally get my energy back but I'm prob about 75-85% back to normal now. My Mom also got it (shes 77) and had to spend 10 days in the hospital. She came home a few days ago and is on oxygen for a bit and I'm having to do everything for her so I still wont be around much for a bit till I can get her back on her feet without needing my assistance. If I don't talk to you guys much before then, I wish you all a very Merry Christmas.

Congratulations peeps! Fully deserved winners here ❤❤❤

Fantastic write up and all well deserved awards! Congratulations to all.

Glad to hear you're both on the mend Steve..stay safe and have as good a Christmas as you can mate 👍

Wow, glad to hear you and your mother are doing better and recovering. Wish you both all the best for Christmas!

In other news, as it’s late December I watched die hard and it still doesn’t disappoint.

Watched the new Guy Ritchie, Jason Statham offering which is a bit slow to start with and jumps around the timeline to try to explain the plot, tbh most of it was filler and it wasn't as good as I was hoping. Certainly not a patch on Ritchie's previous efforts
