+cmart604 Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 Cool idea. I like the idea of subcategories with winners moving on to the next round like the playoffs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the idea of subcategories with winners moving on to the next round like the playoffs exaclty and most of all it is easy to handle for the people that vote... 5 titles each pool, the first goes second round there will be 2 rounds and the final pool it would focus on the orginal 125 + homebrew until 2011, and add in the final poll the homebrews that won games of the year since 2011, do you agree?

vprette Posted April 16, 2014 Author Share Posted April 16, 2014 (edited) votations started :-) it is already interesting to see initial results.. so far the games highlighted by people are: utopia armor battle nhl (a surprise for me) nfl atlantis mouse trap I expect also astrosmash to get many votes... about sub-categories so far: sport > nhl or nfl shooting > astrosmash or space armada or hover force arcade conversion> mouse trap Edited April 16, 2014 by vprette Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vprette Posted April 16, 2014 Author Share Posted April 16, 2014 Good question. Ask Al or Tempest maybe? ok I will ask if moderator can close the pool after 1-2 weeks each Maybe if the difference from 1st to 2nd is just one vote we can keep a bit longer... will see in the meanwhile I add couple of poll more, and I think is enough for a while (I go easter holiday also) :-) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vprette Posted April 16, 2014 Author Share Posted April 16, 2014 should we have a pool for the ECS/music catridges as well? I think so Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why not the original 125 in one set, and all home-brews on another? -dZ. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+wongojack Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 I like the grouping system. I also like the way it is done in the 2600 forum where everyone votes for their top ten and then those placements are weighted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+cmart604 Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 should we have a pool for the ECS/music catridges as well? I think so Absolutely. All 125 should end up in a group. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+cmart604 Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 Why not the original 125 in one set, and all home-brews on another? -dZ. For the homebrews, since there's a lot less, I'd like to see them put in 1 on 1 pairings with D2K, Carol, Space Patrol and whatever the fourth top ranked game might be set up to meet in the semi finals and then two of them meet in the finals.

The grouping is fine, I just think that the home-brews should not be pitted against the original 125. I also think that all home-brews should compared together, whether in one or multiple polls.
