Eighth Annual Coint and Plick: BALLOT TIME! Vote for the best games of 2014. DUE WED., FEB. 18

Check out the nominations thread.
Check out (AND CONTRIBUTE TO) the lobbying thread.

Submit your ballot! It's time to argue about video games!

Here's a handy-dandy form you can use to submit your ballot. Or, if you prefer to use e-mail, shoot it over to my webmail, or bug me in this thread and I'll give you my e-mail and throw it in the webform myself. (I recommend you finish your ballot before you try to fill out the form, it is kind of a shitty form.

You can vote for up to TWENTY games (or as many as like one I guess), assigning 5-30 points per game. Total number of assigned points per ballot = 100. Total number of ballots per person = 1. Total number of fucks given if u disagree = 0. There's also a question at the end about your biggest disappointment of the year. Please take the time to answer it with as much angry vitriolic passion as possible. No idea how many games i'll make banners for but I figure it'll be somewhere between 75 and 80.

TWO WEEKS TO FILL YOUR BALLOT, GET CRACKING! Will this deadline be a moving target this year? Maybe! BUT PRETEND IT ISN'T FOR FUCK'S SAKE.

waitasec puzzle and dragons makes the list but not the mighty MARVEL PUZZLE QUEST

I DEMAND A RECOUNT

thanks thread for introducing me to elsa frozen brain surgery o_O

also no forza horizon 2 is a tragedy. how did i manage to miss contributing to the nominations thread ;_;

MPQ won last year.

but puzzle and dragons placed last year

and MPQ won't win this year...except on my ballot

We also forgot to nom this year's Lego games.

should it matter if it's been nominated? (i have never seen the point of nomination process tbh, surely if it was released in 2014 it counts?)
I'm pretty sure in past years I've put un-nominated games on my list. There are at least a couple I'd list this year that aren't on the list above too...

ah ha, I see it DOES matter if it's been nominated, since the form uses a drop down menu of the prescribed list of games. huh. the form is a good/sensible idea but a write-in vote option somehow would be nice.

Voted.

Voted!

"Or, if you prefer to use e-mail, shoot it over to my webmail" is really not the most cryptic instruction ever.

Yes I'm aware of that, thanks.
I just don't want it to be problematic or make things difficult if I send a ballot with un-nominated games.

salsa shark you won't be alone MPQ 4everrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

You can leave the drop down blank, assign the points, and write the write in in the text box

all right i'm in.
i like the poll set up.

We're going to need a lot more responses to this.

Sitting on six now. Six!

Who else is writing one and isn't done yet??

I plan to submit but I am sick as dirt

just submitted mine.

I'm doing one and haven't done it yet. That deadline is still MILES away though!

True, the deadline is "2 days away"

i'm doing one, i'll try to finish tonight

voted!
4 game ballot, casual 4 life.
Only really gave a blurb on the one that's had no ilx chatter, but if you want more Will I will try to think of something to say about the others.

i believe i did this. technology!

submitted!

Ballot sent now, sorry for delay.

2 days, crap. i'll get on it

dont worry everyone, feb 18 was a false flag anyway. hmm... 15 votes so far isn't too too bad. maybe we can get like 5 more? is 10 asking too much?

deadline pushed let's say... a week? feb 25? any mods able ot change the title?

do i still have time to vote?

Absolutely!

Still planning on voting I swear!

any can you can vote today?

cc: everyone else?

any *chance

I'll get something to you tonight, promise.

I will!

oh hey I voted in this

Hi dere

Fuuuuuucck

I've got an insane toddler but lots of opinions

Son of a bitch

jjj & if & jimd you all have an indefinite amount of grace period, i haven't decided how much yet but

Stop posting about pedals / strokes songs / PS4 and GET A PON DIS TING

ideally i can do rollout next week

just remembered to do this

Do you want me to make up a ballot for jjj?

sent in a last minute ballot!

So you can't have a game with less than 5 points?

correct

That's hugely charitable of you given my broken promises. I'm working Sunday but I'll have nothing to do and nobody around to care whether I do it, so if you can wait until then I'll definitely have something for you. If you can't that's fine.

Fuck. Submitting a ballot with no comments, will try to comment later.

Birthday into travel week. Sorry.

Haha wait, submitted, but I never added up the points, and assume I allocated way more than 100 because I thought it would tell me how far over I was! Want to email me my ballot and tell me I'm an asshole and I'll fix it?

Just let jjj have more points than everyone else tbh

Seems fair, I will accept it

if you submit again and add it up to 100 i'll just delete the old one

jimd sunday is fine, i am gona add em up on monday

Admittedly I didn't even bother adding up to 100 points but i'm okay with my votes counting less

Sent!

THE FLOOR IS CLOSED

I WILL START POSTING RESULTS TOMORROW

stoked for the madness

stoked.

can't wait to see jjj's breathless lauding of Campus Life: Fashion Girl
