IMPORTANT

We now have a splash screen. (Thanks @Boojum!)

ALSO IMPORTANT

Please read all directions for submitting a proper ballot.

Any improper ballots will NOT be counted, but you will get a polite message from me before the count asking you to fix them. XD

All ballots must be top-level comments.

All top-level comments should be ballots ONLY.

I will be using the Collapse Replies button to tally votes, so any ballots not in top-level comments will not be counted.

After you submit your ballot, you can respond to your own post in a new comment to lobby for your choices (which is optional but highly recommended). It's completely fine to have conversations downthread from the ballots, but please make sure that the top-level remains clean.

Submitting Your Ballot

Each person has 20 votes to distribute among games they see fit.

Each person can allocate a maximum of 5 points per Single Game/Arcade Special.

Arcade Specials count as one block (do not vote for each game in them individually).

Votes should be listed as NAME (VOTES) -- e.g. Pong (3)

Voting closes 48 hours from the posting of this topic.

Please ensure your titles match mine exactly (copy/paste highly recommended). I will be using CTRL+F to tally votes u/Spore_Prince has written a program to tally the votes, so any different spellings will not being counted. See examples below, as well as my actual ballot in the topic.

Example Ballot 1 - Valid Ballot

Big Rigs: Over the Road Racing (5)
Portal 3 (5)
Half-Life 3 (3)
Team Fortress 3 (2)
Night Trap (2)
Xexyz (1)
Zelda: The Wand of Gamelon (1)
Left 4 Dead 3 (1)

Uses 20 points total, and no game exceeds 5 points

Example Ballot 2 - Invalid Ballot

Big Rigs: Over the Road Racing (10)
Protal 3 (7)
Wand of Gamelon (5)

Uses more than 20 points; games exceed 5 points; titles do not match

Voting Outcomes

The top 6 games/Arcade Specials will become the next 6 months of CGA.

Of the remaining games, the bottom 50% will be cut from the list.

The remaining 50% will stay on the list and will enter the next voting round starting at their current point totals instead of 0.

The next round of nominations will happen in 6 months, and participants will be limited to nominating 1 new game OR 1 new Arcade Special.
