#BGE2020 - Round 1 - Pool 83

Post by This Old Neon »

Welcome to the first round of #BGE2020 pools!

Each game is randomly seeded into pools using the set generator at Random.org. There's no seeding, no ranking, and no preference or prioritization.

The results of the pools will determine how each game stacks up in the elimination rounds, coming later this year.

HOW TO VOTE

Voting is ranked, but it's not super intuitive, so listen up.
  • You have 6 total votes to distribute.
  • You can only select up to 3 options.
  • You can only give each option up to 3 votes.
  • NOTE: The number you pick is not the RANK of your choice (i.e. 1st, 2nd, 3rd), but the number of VOTES you're giving it.
  • The more votes (bigger numbers) a game gets, the better for that game.
EXAMPLES
  • You could pick three games and order them by giving them 3, 2, and 1 votes.
  • If you like three games equally, you could give them 2, 2, and 2 votes.
  • If you only like two games, you could give them 3 and 3 votes (or 3 and 2, etc.).
This gives you a lot of granularity for how you assign your votes and thereby a lot of influence over which games can do well. Use your power wisely!

If you have questions, ask before voting! :neon:

I don't think DKC3 is one of the top DKC games, but I really so love the vibe of the game. Feels like a Banjo-Tooie level of strangeness to it's characters and levels.

I gave Super Mario Bros. 3 Super 3 Votes. Next Final Fantasy 6 Advance, which is a competent FF6 port. I just didn't care too much for the bonus crap. It's nice for the game to be portable, I suppose. Finally, LittleBigPlanet Vita gets the 1-point nod. Another nice platformer to have on the go.

Rough pool for DKC3 and LBP considering SMB3 is here. Voted for DKC3 and LBP since I SMB3 will get amazing numbers no matter what and I feel the other two deserve their moment in the spotlight.
