Coint & Plick 2017 - ILX's best video games of the year - SEND ME YR BALLOTS (Deadline: March 30)

funny, that's close to exactly what i did with my ballot

2 weeks left and i hope more than 4 of you intend to send a ballot, yyyyikes

I intend to! Hnngh

just sent mine in

hey we're ALMOST halfway to last year's ballot count! 7 ballots woooooo (we ended up with 16 last yr)

I'm in the middle of Yakuza 0 and I'm hoping to play some Odyssey before I vote but if I don't I'll still definitely be voting.

just submitted via the google form, hopefully i did it right

fyi i keep missing this thread because it's not on ILG and thus doesn't get the flashy purple link in my SNA

geez, up to 10 now! little soon for hope maybe, but can we beat last year's 16 (which took an extra month or so to even get)?

i will definitely send in a ballot before the deadline!

as usual, though, i played way more 2015-16 games in 2017 than i did 2017 games. and my #1 game of the moment (cinco paus) came out in the first weeks of january 2018.

I'm planning on voting but still have like 5-6 games that I nominated but haven't played yet that I wanna try out before the deadline.

xpost wait, forgot cinco paus came out on christmas 2017! ok, well that's one spot on my ballot, at least.

Finally started Mario Odyssey today so yeah, bear with me.

ooo i'm glad i waited to play odyssey before voting since it's fantastic

another chance we can get an extension or must i vote today?

oh shit - thanks for the bump. i'll work on my ballot now.

is the weekend enough time for y'all?

yes that should be enough

my ballot only included 5 games, but it's sent!

hey if the 3 ppl who commented in this thread $ haven't voted yet vote, we'll have MORE BALLOTS THAN LAST YEAR! (17 vs 16)

and that could go up to 22 if the 5 ppl who voted last year who haven't been heard from this year vote (long shot, but ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ hi forks hi andrew F hi billstevejim hi s clover hi ez snappin) (but also, sorry if you voted w/ a new name and i didn't recognize it)

I just saw this, I’ll get my ballot in over the weekend. Feel free to yell at me via any contact medium you prefer when I fuck that up.

sweet!

i have 5/6 for sure votes and then an additional 8-9 jockeying for position/points i probably could just vote now.

... in recent years what has been the threshold for a game to break into the countdown?

At times, “any”

iirc

usually it's 5 to break in, or at least that's how i've done it for a while, but i might lower that bar this year depending on the last votes (aka if you give 9 games 1 point each i will probably not do the 1 pt games)

I could throw a ballot your way but I've only played 4 games last year and one would be a write-in. Yay/nay?

go 4 it!

before this poll i had forgotten the Dark Souls III DLC came out last year. going back and playing that again was a real treat. it has some of the best level design in the game -- feel like they really went out with a bang!

Sent, sorry been sidetracked with some stuff lately.

ok emailing in my ballot right now!

i sent a webmail to two of ya, if i don't hear back tonight i'm gonna close the box. i should be able to finish the images today or tomorrow, then start posting results on tuesday?

i think i've asked this before but has anyone ever made an auto-positng thing? i have a bad tendency where i kinda focus on work and forget to post results for an hour or two at a time haha

I set a timer when I do it

I played a lot from last year, and am shocked to realise that after only three months I have 2 for 2018! Also I have sent in a ballot, sorry Will.

Easter with two small children is a motherfucker when it comes to getting shit done. I’ll send at least a list tonight, totally get it if I fall outside of the window.

Done in a frenzied panic, I’ll try to follow up with some bonus answers and not lose my shit when I realize that I forgot to vote for shit.

Just bodging scores together now, I'll have it with you in the next 15 mins

ok done!

Alright, got those last three! got my top 77 now. think i've got a good way to do the images this year, fingers crossed, images should be complete today for rollout tomorrow!
