Haha my flatmates had patience up to a point while I went Chocobo Racing to get that Knights of the Round...

And kept it real based on what I actually played (if not always finished) and what made the deepest nostalgic impressions

Which was PS1 only, although I remember seeing a Dreamcast at some kid's house once, and they were playing a fighting game that looked just mindblowingly futuristic. I've never tracked down what it was.

i remember them still feeling special in Tomb Raider, and i'm pretty sure i knew a guy who taped all the Final Fantasy VII ones onto VHS to more easily appreciate them...
I actually did this for MGS.

Shit I was in the wrong thread when I wrote this so copy pasting it here -
If you are able to send your ballot by tomorrow go for it, if you need an extension please tell me here or at the email in the OP ASAP so we can figure it out. I am on vacation next week so I'd like to at the very least finish all of the prep if not start the rollout!
― TRANCED INTO RADIOACTIVE PUREE (Will M.), Sunday, 8 November 2020 03:09 (three years ago) link
Sent my (slightly pedestrian) ballot. Hope it's in time!
― tangenttangent, Sunday, 8 November 2020 18:07 (three years ago) link
totally in time! time for others to send em in too if they're out there. 18 ballots and counting is a pretty good number, can we hit 20 tho? 25?
― TRANCED INTO RADIOACTIVE PUREE (Will M.), Sunday, 8 November 2020 19:05 (three years ago) link
just sent mine in! We're voting for strictly playing these games on Console, right? (i.e. no votes for Civ2 on PC?)
― Piven After Midnight (The Yellow Kid), Sunday, 8 November 2020 19:31 (three years ago) link
exactly -- if you played civ 2 on the console go for it, but computer games are just so tricky to place on the timeline fairly that it'll have to be another poll in like 2044 or something
― TRANCED INTO RADIOACTIVE PUREE (Will M.), Sunday, 8 November 2020 19:51 (three years ago) link
i let the board down by not following thru on a pc poll a few years ago AND inappropriately voted in will’s last poll for games i was really endorsing other versions of. one of these sins i have redeemed today; the other you never know.
― difficult listening hour, Sunday, 8 November 2020 20:10 (three years ago) link
(was def tempted to vote for worms armageddon on ps1 tho; how compromised could it be)
― difficult listening hour, Sunday, 8 November 2020 20:12 (three years ago) link
yeah that was my dilemma on GTA
― Piven After Midnight (The Yellow Kid), Sunday, 8 November 2020 20:40 (three years ago) link
submitted, hopefully no issues getting it in!
― Four Seasons Total Manscaping (forksclovetofu), Monday, 9 November 2020 15:11 (three years ago) link
still down to vote in that PC poll anytime, dlh!
― Doctor Casino, Monday, 9 November 2020 15:47 (three years ago) link
i would, too!
― @oneposter(✔️) (Karl Malone), Monday, 9 November 2020 15:58 (three years ago) link
lol oops
― DJP, Monday, 9 November 2020 16:35 (three years ago) link
fix an oops and forget it!
― @oneposter(✔️) (Karl Malone), Monday, 9 November 2020 16:37 (three years ago) link
the spreadsheet link is blocked by my work computer 😡
― DJP, Monday, 9 November 2020 16:39 (three years ago) link
I can send a copy of the sheet to your webmail, if that still works!
― @oneposter(✔️) (Karl Malone), Monday, 9 November 2020 16:53 (three years ago) link
but no pressure of course. but if you don't vote for marvel puzzle quest, i'm not sure it's going to make the rollout ;)
― @oneposter(✔️) (Karl Malone), Monday, 9 November 2020 16:54 (three years ago) link
If I only want to vote for 30 games, what do I do with the empty cells and their weighted points?
― reggae mike love (polyphonic), Monday, 9 November 2020 17:55 (three years ago) link
All good! I just ignore the blank lines.
Anyone else? DJP?
Also, I think I've sent a response email to everyone who voted/whose ballot I put in the sheet. Does anyone not have a response?
― Kompakt Total Landscaping (Will M.), Monday, 9 November 2020 20:00 (three years ago) link
djp: if you wanna just write your ballot out and email it i can assign the points too (or if karl already sent the spreadsheet that's cool too)
general note: good lord the #1 thru #5 or so games have switched order so many times in the past 48 hours i genuinely have no idea how its going to end even if we get only one more ballot! whoooaaaaahhhh
― Kompakt Total Landscaping (Will M.), Monday, 9 November 2020 20:15 (three years ago) link
I was worried for a while because I didn't get an answer but just saw your e-mail so it's all good
― Dinsdale, Monday, 9 November 2020 20:33 (three years ago) link
i had to look at the mall again to make sure i didn't miss anyone, and i missed one! it wasn't yours tho, i just forgot to email you :)
person who i missed: you should have an email now too!
― Kompakt Total Landscaping (Will M.), Monday, 9 November 2020 20:40 (three years ago) link
I am going to be off work in an hour, can I throw you a ballot then?
― DJP, Monday, 9 November 2020 21:05 (three years ago) link
Once again I have not looked at ILX for a while and I would have said "of course" but you have since sent it so I will say "it has been counted!"
If anyone out there is reading this who also wants to do a last-minute ballot: I'll give you until tomorrow at noon(ish) (EST) before I for-real-for-real close the polling!
― Kompakt Total Landscaping (Will M.), Monday, 9 November 2020 23:15 (three years ago) link
👍🏾

haha thank you the timing between the "put total landscaping on the end of things" thread and the "listen to all of the kompakt total releases in order for no particular reason" decision i made last week was serendipitous
with jim's we have 24! so happy we got over 20 (still open to any others til noon btw)
― Kompakt Total Landscaping (Will M.), Tuesday, 10 November 2020 00:30 (three years ago) link
ok that's a wrap then! I am gonna set it up tomorrow and tonight, hoooopefully ready to go thursday (or maybe even tomorrow!)
