2020 Plot Of The Year Nominations

I'd say the Plot round Algos invading Minatumi

There were a lot of good plots in 2020, so many that for a little bit I actually had a lot of trouble thinking of how to even nominate one. But then I ran the numbers, I looked at the data, and I came to one very important conclusion:

The sheer volume of incredible writing that came with the Gotei's nobility storylines, and the reforms in the Soul Society, was fucking unmatched in maybe the entirety of the time I have been on this site.

A huge amount of the site's members were directly involved with it, and it wasn't simply a singular plot thread. Everyone engaged with the narrative in the ways they personally wanted to, whether it was something as intimate as Rio and Hakuyou's romance, or as brutally frank as Ulv teaching Julian how to stop being a sadboy. So many storylines that might otherwise never have garnered much attention were suddenly all weaved together into a singular narrative. We were all genuinely excited for every post that happened in nearly every thread, and I think something like that isn't just impressive, I think that's the very spirit of what RP should be.

There are a lot of people who were involved in that plot, so I don't know how feasible it would even be to give out a wish if this won. But, at the same time, I think it would be unfair to all the people who put so much effort in to deny them what I think is a deserved win.
