Accusations of Rigging
After the winners were announced, there was dissent via Twitter as many listeners refused to accept the results and began to accuse Ghost & his Inner Circle of vote rigging. These accusations were generally targeted across all categories however specifically levied against Best Mexican, Best Remix, Best Black Guy, Best Brony and Best Chatroom. Ghost admitted that /pol/ would have won Best Chatroom category if they didn't attempt to dox him all the time. Additionally he stated that TheBronyNetwork didn't win the same category because people from that chatroom were causing problems for him and the show all the time.
