We are up for another round of nominations for Colossal Game Adventure, Tildes' very own retro video game club!

These nominations will form the ballot for the next round of voting, in which will we choose the next SIX games to play after we finish Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2 this month.

Nominations for CGA do not start fresh each time. We rollover the top 50% of nominations from the previous round, and we decay their vote totals by 70%. So, many of the previously nominated games are still eligible to win in the upcoming voting.

Procedural Details

• Nominations will be open for 96 hours (4 days) from the time of this posting.

• Anyone can nominate. You do not have to have previously taken part in CGA in order to participate.

• Anyone nominating in this topic will be added to the CGA notification list if they're not already on there (unless you request otherwise).

• There is no hard definition for "retro." Choose whatever you feel fits that label.

• Games that have been nominated in the past but were cut are still eligible for nomination again. They do not get "locked out" of CGA.

• Voting will follow in a separate topic, and I will also be trying out a "lobbying" topic this time around to see how that goes. More on that in the comments.

Nomination Process

Everyone has the ability to take one (and ONLY one) official action for the nominations topic.

EITHER: Boost a rolled-over title.

• This will add 3 points to the title's rollover points from the previous round.
• You will also be able to add points to the game during the voting round.
• The purpose of this is to limit new nominations if there are games already in the list that strongly interest you.

OR: Nominate a new title.

• This will add a new game/arcade special to the ballot.
• An Arcade Special is a group of shorter/smaller games meant to be played together.
• Any new title starts at 0 points.

Nomination Formatting

Please do the following:

Bold your action (boosting/nominating).

If nominating, please link to your title on MobyGames. (You do not need to do this for boosting since the links are already in the list.)

Examples:

Boosting a game:

• Boost: Lode Runner

Nominating a game:

• Nomination: Portal 2

Nominating an Arcade Special:

• Nomination: Windows in the 90s
  Minesweeper
  Chip's Challenge
  JezzBall

It is recommended (but not required) that you share why you are nominating/boosting a particular game as well.
