billstevejim, Tuesday, 9 February 2016 03:07 (eight years ago) link

we're up to ten now. i'm not confident that we'll get 30 :(

hopefully we at least get enough to even HAVE a top 77? right now only ~50 games have received votes because lol

Worth Taking from Little Kid (Will M.), Tuesday, 9 February 2016 21:24 (eight years ago) link

I will vote last minute

trying to play at least one more 2015 game so that my ballot can have more than 3 games on it but I dunno

I guess this decisively proves that the SJWs killed gaming.

Almost done with Arkham Knight. Ballot will be determined by its ending.

Insane Prince of False Binaries (Gukbe), Tuesday, 9 February 2016 21:52 (eight years ago) link

But which ending? You need to 100% it for the full one.

JimD, Wednesday, 10 February 2016 00:10 (eight years ago) link

Ugh no. All that riddler shit.

Insane Prince of False Binaries (Gukbe), Wednesday, 10 February 2016 00:12 (eight years ago) link

you better watch the credits and cheer when my name pops up

Worth Taking from Little Kid (Will M.), Wednesday, 10 February 2016 00:15 (eight years ago) link

Haha I forced my family to sit through them for that reason and, um, then I forgot your surname so couldn't tell whether we'd missed you or what.

JimD, Wednesday, 10 February 2016 01:16 (eight years ago) link

just voted -- liking the new spreadsheet & form ballots

Option ARMs and de Man (s.clover), Wednesday, 10 February 2016 23:10 (eight years ago) link

i should probably write up some comments too right

Option ARMs and de Man (s.clover), Wednesday, 10 February 2016 23:10 (eight years ago) link

how many ballots did we have last year

Option ARMs and de Man (s.clover), Wednesday, 10 February 2016 23:11 (eight years ago) link

I voted Metal Gear Solid V at the top. I know it has gotten a lot of negative press but it is nearly flawless to play. I picked up GOTY Witcher 3 for a bit and it was an absolute struggle to deal with the controls and camera. I also think MGSV's story is highly underrated.

I played way too much MGSV, like over 500 hours. So it's sort of an overwhelming presence for 2015 for me. Looking forward to finding out about some cool stuff I missed last year!

AdamVania (Adam Bruneau), Wednesday, 10 February 2016 23:24 (eight years ago) link

Did MGSV get bad reviews? I thought it was universally loved.

Insane Prince of False Binaries (Gukbe), Wednesday, 10 February 2016 23:41 (eight years ago) link

I mean the drama surrounding Kojima and Konami. It has been weird to see everyone dogpile on this company who has been making games for 3 decades.

This year people can just post them in the thread, I think

how many ballots did we have last year

Apparently 23? i thought we had 29 but i must have looked at another poll. really hope we can at least match if not beat 23 this year... we're not even halfway lol

Worth Taking from Little Kid (Will M.), Thursday, 11 February 2016 02:05 (eight years ago) link

voted, hope I get some command points for doing so

droit au butt (Euler), Thursday, 11 February 2016 10:41 (eight years ago) link

I'm going to try to remember to throw together a ballot tonight. Unfortunately, there are going to be at least a couple of write-ins that I played after the nominations closed (or that I maybe forgot to nominate).

maybe my clam is just more toxic (Old Lunch), Thursday, 11 February 2016 13:21 (eight years ago) link

oh weird, email forwarding fully didn't work, so i missed 4 ballots! up to 15!

trying to figure out how much of the image work i can do before friday now

Worth Taking from Little Kid (Will M.), Thursday, 11 February 2016 18:30 (eight years ago) link

i'll try to get my ballot in tonight. i was trying to finish a game first, but i think i'm just going to vote for it and repent later if it turns out to absolutely tank during the last 1/4th.

feel horrible about my ballot. honestly have barely played anything this year other than rocket league and mpq

reggae mike love (polyphonic), Thursday, 11 February 2016 22:52 (eight years ago) link

Alright, I just sent in my ballot even though I didn't get around to playing half of the games I nominated yet. Oh well!

methanietanner, Friday, 12 February 2016 00:48 (eight years ago) link

I submitted mine. My disappointment was also on by best list. I didn't notice this until I pressed submit, but it's true -- the game was a let down but was still OK.

remove butt (abanana), Friday, 12 February 2016 01:00 (eight years ago) link

Submitted! So sorry, but like a third of them are write-ins that I only recently played or remembered were from 2015. Let me know if you need console info or whatever.

maybe my clam is just more toxic (Old Lunch), Friday, 12 February 2016 02:25 (eight years ago) link

no sweat on the write-ins.

my spreadsheet is at work, but with two more ballots, i think that officially puts us at 77 games with votes!

Worth Taking from Little Kid (Will M.), Friday, 12 February 2016 02:36 (eight years ago) link

My disappointment was also on by best list.

same, my biggest disappointment was the ending of my #1 game. it's still my favorite, it just could've been MORE my favorite

the jackal-snouted problem man (reddening), Friday, 12 February 2016 02:43 (eight years ago) link

Alright, I've got 20 ballots. I'm going to finish the image template and start generating them in probably an hour or two.

If you wanted to submit a ballot but are late, you've got til 12:00 Eastern.

Worth Taking from Little Kid (Will M.), Monday, 15 February 2016 16:00 (eight years ago) link

Also for a little bit of drama, the cutoff for the rollout is 10 points, so everything that got 5 you wonder if it might show up in the top X during the rollout. So it'll be a top ~60 games in 2015 (full list will come after)

Worth Taking from Little Kid (Will M.), Monday, 15 February 2016 16:01 (eight years ago) link

If you want to pad it out I literally have 10 more entries I desperately wanted to vote for but didn't have any more points to give out - I'd be happy to give them 5 pts each and send them along ;)

Mordy, Monday, 15 February 2016 16:01 (eight years ago) link

nah but after the rollout you should post your extended ballot!

Worth Taking from Little Kid (Will M.), Monday, 15 February 2016 16:13 (eight years ago) link

Unfortunately I got my ps4 just too late to vote for...anything on the mom list. Next year I'm all over it though.

I think I said the rollout was starting today, but on account of I'm an idiot, it's starting tmrw (and I'll do a 3-day rollout instead of 4). Sorry for the delay!

Worth Taking from Little Kid (Will M.), Tuesday, 16 February 2016 16:01 (eight years ago) link

so psyched

billstevejim, Tuesday, 16 February 2016 18:08 (eight years ago) link

No need to compress to 3 days, if they roll out slower and that leaves more room for discussion as we go then that's a good thing, no? Unless of course you just don't want to give over even more of your life to it, which would be completely justified obviously.

JimD, Tuesday, 16 February 2016 18:27 (eight years ago) link

i just don't like doing it over a weekend, or splitting it over 2 different weeks, plus mondays are difficult for me... i'll get started soon tho :) just need to get the uploads ready
