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!

Whoa baby, two games in here that absolutely force my hand. Shining Force and Lunar are among the absolute exemplars of their respective genres. Both originally on Sega systems too. Interesting.

Shining Force is one of only a dozen or so games I’d call perfect.

What the heck is Sonic 2006 doing here and not in the shittest game of all time competition?

I voted for it thinking it was the genesis version

I nearly did the same then saw "2006" and from there the were burned into my retinas. I could only see suffering and tragedy all around me.

it's not too late to undo your sins btw.
