#BGE2020 - Round 2 - Pool 155

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:

Some shmups in here. I'm vouching once again for Undead Line, a top-down vertical shmup in a fantasy setting where you're not a fucking space ship! It's hard. If you haven't played it or heard of it, go check out some YouTube. Pretty neat, and classic Sega Genesis.

Also going in for Street Fighter Alpha 3 MAX on PSP, and tossing one spare vote to the Blackhand Edition on Wii.

On the half shell, they’re the heroes four. In this day and age who could ask for more? The crime wave was high with muggings mysterious. All police and detectives are furious because they can’t find the source of this lethally evil force. This is serious so give me a quarter. I was a witness - give me a reporter.
I never thought I would feel this way, but now I know. Now I know. I never thought I would see things as I see them now, but now I know. I never thought I would hurt so bad, but now I know. Now I know.
