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!
Just 2 votes for a nice platformer Hollow Knight.
I almost also gave a vote to Gradius and R-Type, but as nice as the versions I played from both series were I now find them frustrating to play (don't have the patience anymore)
I went all in for Gradius II, which is lovely and beautiful, and R-Type III, which is only a little less wonderful and beautiful.
I hate that I didn’t notice Star Raiders until after I voted. My reflexes are slowing down as I age.
I’ve been waiting for the sun to come up. Waiting for the showers to stop. Waiting for the penny to drop. One time. And I’ve been standing in a cloud of plans. Standing on the shifting sands. Hoping for an open hand. One time.
Max votes for the excellent and surprisingly expansive Hollow Knight—I can't wait for the sequel!
Gave the rest of my points to Crystalis (a true NES gem) and PaRappa. Fire Emblem would have been my 4th pick but I'm sure it'll be fine.

I actually need to go back and beat Hollow Knight. I was really enjoying the difficulty of it as well as the Metroid like exploration. It was another very atmospheric game which was even more impressive for a 2D game, which had a beautiful art style to boot.
