#BGE2020 - Round 2 - Pool 28

Post by This Old Neon »

Welcome to the second round of #BGE2020 pools!

Each game is randomly seeded into pools using the sequence 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... realistically in early 2021.

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 didn't want to do it, but I had to toss 2 points to Angry Birds.
Also gave 1 vote to the rudimentary Alleyway on GB, and 1 to the fanfic-quality sequel to Final Fantasy IV.

One vote to Devil's Crush which I just remembered I haven't actually played (I've played Alien Crush). I'll trust that it's good based on the one I have played.

I've been meaning to try Call of Duty 4 since I got the remaster free on PS+. Maybe I can do that in the next few days and see if it earns a vote or two. I've never been interested in CoD, but it just crossed that threshold for me of "this series is so big, I feel like I've got to play at least one." Same reason I gave Halo a shot. Doubt I'll be captivated by it, but I wanna give it a shot.

It also reminds me of the amusing bit of trivia that games by the titles of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Remastered and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare both exist on PS4/XB1, and the former is the older one. :lol:
You got BOOST power!
