Game of the Year (GotY) 2019 - voting
Posted: Sun Feb 23, 2020 12:24 pm
Thanks to all those who submitted nominations for GotY 2019.
It has been customary to select a cut-off point such that 7-12 nominees make the final poll, indeed this year I included this clause in the nominations topic. However, this year saw a huge amount of nominators - nearly four times as many as last year. This led to 13 games having 4+ nominations. I could have included only those with 5+ nominations in the voting, but to exclude games with four nominations seemed a little harsh - especially looking at the standard of them. As such, I’m including all 13 with 4+ nominations here. I’m really grateful that so many people took the time to nominate, to have such a high turnout was really pleasing and I’ve enjoyed looking over the games that were nominated - 2019 was certainly a really good year for apterous.
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). Please ensure you pay attention to the variants and context, these games are here for a reason.
