#BGE2020 - Round 1 - Pool 224

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:

Gotta give max votes to Langrisser M for being a surprisingly fully-featured strategy game with an actual healthy & active PvP community hidden in a mobile gacha. Fairly impressive. Golden Axe is a must for my next vote, and then I cast the last vote for one of the best sports games ever made.

Gotta give full votes to Pokémon Silver, arguably the peak of the series (though my vote would go to its remake). I cast another for the highly serviceable Golden Axe. Would love to vote for RE2 and probably would, but I haven't played it yet. Eventually!
You got BOOST power!

RE2 is fantastic. I haven't even beaten it yet but it's got so much quality in it...far superior to the first game, which was also good just very, very different from RE2. And Golden Axe is a legendary coop that I still play to this day.
That’s the way it works when it’s not working. That’s the way it hurts before it starts hurting.
