MassivelyOP’s not-so-serious end-of-the-year awards continue today with our pick for best inappropriately sexy MMO post. (If you’re wondering what the heck a Golden Yachtie is, you can get caught up with the first award.)
And the winner is…
ANIMAL CROSSING’S PENIS-SHAPED FIREWORKS
Chris’ piece Animal Crossing New Horizons now lets players trip and fall, create penis-shaped fireworks comes darn close to burying the lede.
“There’s been a recent update made to the adorable Animal Crossing New Horizons, including the ability to visit a dream version of other players’ islands in their sleep, backup their island and save data, and take in fireworks shows every Sunday which can be modified to include custom fireworks designs.
“So, naturally, everyone started filling their night skies with dicks.
“Yes, the custom designed fireworks allow for any shape crafted by players to arrive in colorful explosions as part of a fireworks display, which means there’s been a proliferation of penises in the peaceful islands of the game’s world.”
Bless.
I’m not really all that embarrassed to say I have a whole list of runners-up for this piece.
- There’s a new dating site specifically for gamers called Joystick – Ew.
- Cryptic’s Magic: Legends is an isometric RPG and not an MMORPG because of earth elemental butt – I was really proud of this one, and it’s true too.
- Players in WoW Classic have defeated Onyxia without wearing anything at all – This one is wholesome and definitely an inappropriately sexy title.
- The Internet Historian reads a racy Sean Murray fanfic – I have no idea what’s happening anymore.
- Welcome to the Litter Box, a player-built naked fight club in Fallout 76 – This is funny and also slightly disturbing?
- Club Penguin rogue server shut down following discovery of explicit content – WAIT WHAT? AHHHHHHHH. SHUT IT ALL DOWN.

Not only did something I wrote win this award, but most of the nominees were my stories as well. Not sure how to process that.
Eliot’s probably super jealous.
And it’s New Year’s Eve, the perfect time for a fireworks show: bang, bang, bang, leading to an explosive climax.

I can’t breathe
Lol! Right?! Had to show my wife once I stopped laughing.
🤣😂
Those Halfling ladies sure do like big fireworks…uhm…explosions…..uh…things.
Also, the male secondary singer looks so much like my cousin. scary!
The obligatory…
With regard to what won. I never knew that occurred, and I wish I still didn’t know that occurred.
It’s something that I think is better forgotten by all involved.
When the devs first added user generated content to City of Heroes (super bases, and then the Architect system where you could create your own missions) one of the devs apparently commented on how every time they even *thought* about letting players make anything, they had to factor in TTP. (Time To Penis.) Basically, “how long will it take before someone finds a way to use this feature to build a penis.” The problem is that if there’s any level of player control at all, TTP is usually “about five seconds.”
