#BGE2020 - Round 1 - Pool 203

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:

SMM2 is very good despite not sticking with me as long. Especially with the updates.

FFCCMLAAK is an acronym I remember well. Must have been my first downloaded game that wasn't virtual console. It was a really neat sim/town management game.

SMM2 is a good game, but there's still something off about it compared to the original. And I don't think it's just because it's a sequel. The original had so much more charm. Updates really helped SMM2, but not enough. It's the only game I played in this bracket, but I still couldn't give it a full three votes.
