Are these official nominations or just honourable mentions? If the former, I'm going to need game names, not just franchise names.

Spore, I'm impressed by the amount of effort that went into that! If you need me to, I'll write a note to your prof excusing you from homework today.

I was going to comment on that but hadn't gotten to it yet. You beat me to it...
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.

Everyone's picks have been ported over to the main BGE spreadsheet and locked in. I'm not going to close this thread, so we can keep discussing nominations in here until the brackets are posted on (hopefully) SUNDAY.

I'll post a thread later this afternoon about the prize draws and how those will work.

Han! Unfortunately the nomination round has closed and the brackets are already being rolled, but you're right on time for the voting to begin! Most of your picks have made it into the contest already, if that's any consolation (RIP small handful that didn't).
