Take a guess.
No idea.

My favorite games are things like You are a Fuedal Lord, and Age of Man. I just thought it was really cool to control a little guy in a tribe of africans in the distant past. It's a shame the game died right after our first guy died, amid debate over what to do with the second guy.

I liked that one where you were a chief of a tribe and could command them and stuff... (goes and finds name of game)... Ah thats right Isle, now that was a good game. I think the GM just lost interest eventually, for 5 days the thread was kept alive only by bumps. Were just getting to the most interesting part too...

I liked "They told me I could be anything..."

At least that's what I think the name of it was.

Oh, and "You are Necromancer". God damn it, monk, update, that was my favorite forum game EVER.

Bout two years back

Adventure Guy was awesome.

There comes a time when you must take off the soft, furry slippers of a boy and put on the shoes of a man.
Unless of course they don't fit properly and your feet blister up like bubble wrap.
Oh ho ho, but don't try to return the shoes, because they won't take them back once you've worn them.
Especially if that fat pig Tony is at the desk.

Not sure what is meant by "best", have been in way, way to many to determine anything like that, but just from ones already mentioned here BOTGII and Adventure Guy were both truly amazing classics.

There was this suggestion game called Titans of Dwarven Industry run by Mullet Master.  As the game went down it basically turned into me fleshing out an ever more elaborate Xanatos gambit but there were a few watchers who thought my conniving was rather entertaining to watch.  I found it quite enjoyable myself as there is nothing better then a nice multifaceted Xanatos gambit.

BMM42's Homestuck RPG. Seriously, no contest.
Yes, this. I agree.
I'm with these guys.

And I'm giving a mention to Prince of Toast because, while it was a royal trainwreck with truly shitty art, it was a lot of fun to run that thing while it lasted.

Not one that I have played, but my favorite game on these boards would have to have been Jackrabbits old DFisk RP. I don't even remember the name of it but it was about the demons escaping from the hell pits in a DF world and rallying goblin armies to consume the world.

On Bay12, there was a couple of amazing ones that just stopped being updated. One was that you were a nanite, and in the other you were a freelancer alchemist.

The Paranormal Mafia series.  Consistently well run, pretty good ruleset, nice flavour and it finishes every time.

I'd have to say Shade-o's Cobalt Fortress was my favorite forum game. Adventure Guy and Don't Trust the Rainbow Snail are up there at the top too.
