Game of the Year (GotY) 2017 - voting

Post by Adam Gillard »

Thanks to all those who submitted nominations for GotY 2017. There were 6 nominees that made the cut-off for the final poll.

Voting rules:

Each person should submit one of 12 options for each game when voting: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 or Abstain (0 is worst and 10 is best). You can submit the same vote for as many games as you like. The games will be ranked by the average score received from the 0-10 votes (abstentions excluded), with the highest average score declared as the winner. You should submit a vote for every game, and abstentions are only permitted for games you were involved in (but you don't have to abstain in any case).

Nominees

Game A: Apterous Prune 0 - 200 Bradley Horrocks
Game B: Apterous Rex 480 - 520 Callum Todd
Game C: Apterous Rex 142 - 144 Callum Todd
Game D: Apterous Prune 0 - 180 Robin M
Game E: The Duellist 0 - 180 Chris Hare
Game F: Ben Andrews 200 - 200 Martin Hurst

VOTING FOR GotY 2017 IS NOW OPEN AND WILL CLOSE ON SATURDAY 3 MARCH 2018 AT 11.59pm. VOTES SHOULD BE SUBMITTED TO ME BY PRIVATE MESSAGE ON THIS FORUM OR BY APTOMAIL. PLEASE SUBMIT EACH VOTE ON A SEPARATE LINE, IN THE FOLLOWING FORMAT:

(e.g.)
A - 2
