[Archived] The Casual Playthrough Voting Thread
Vote tally as of December 31 (No change)
Voting closes on January 1.
Any vote that comes in between now and New Year’s Day will be tallied on New Year’s Day.
(I plan on doing some celebrating on New Year’s Eve, and I don’t plan to take a break to check for votes.)
There’s a strong likelihood of a playoff. Only those games tied for the lead will be in the playoff. If there’s a tie, those games will be announced the morning of January 1, my time. Anybody is eligible to vote in the playoff. Winner will be announced on January 3. The playthrough should start soon after.
Have a safe and Happy New Year!

FINAL TALLY as of January 1.
As expected, there is a tie. Only those games tied for the lead are in the playoff. Anybody is eligible to vote in the playoff. You can only vote for one of the games. Winner will be announced on January 3. The playthrough should start soon after.
As I volunteered to lead Wishmaster, I would be hard pressed not to vote for it. (Although I also voted for Time Dreamer. So there can’t be a “loser” in my opinion)
1 vote E.P.I.C. - Wishmaster (Tim - leader)
Time Dreamer
Note: I’m reposting this in case there are some newcomers to the thread. E.P.I.C. - Wishmaster is no longer available on BFG. It is, however, available at the Alawar Games website. The Alawar site does not state whether it is playable on Win8.

I’ll vote for Time Dreamer.

I just quoted myself instead of editing my post. Feel free to ignore this space.

I voted for both in the first round and can’t seem to make up my mind now they’re up against each other…
I’ll refrain from voting (or vote for both - whichever rocks your boat)...

Maybe this time I can be strong, but since I know who I am, I’m probably wrong. Maybe this time I can go far, but thinking about where I’ve been ain’t helping me start. - Michael Kiwanuka
Per the rules, you can only vote for one. Not sure where voting for neither gets you. I guess a deciding factor might be the cost of the game. I don’t know what the bottom line cost for Wishmaster is at Alawar, v. the Time Dreamer cost at BFG.
I know you said to Sefir on the other thread that the voting for the two playthroughs is different. You will only play the AGCPT if you voted for the game that won. Whereas you will play whatever wins the CCPT vote regardless of how you voted.
If that’s the case, you might as well say “Tim, Becky…choose our next game. Popular opinion doesn’t matter.” I know you don’t believe that.
Besides, Becky came in as a non-voting leader of Time Dreamer. While I, like you, voted for both games.
You’re not going to hurt my feelings if you vote for Time Dreamer. (Although this might be the third or fourth time that Wishmaster has finished second. If it loses this time, I am going to wage a ferocious campaign on its behalf for the next playthrough.)
As I’ve said before, “Nobody dies.” Vote for the game you think will be most convenient for you to play.

I just want to mention that I will also play whatever game is chosen, despite my vote!

Well, popular opinion selected these two games, so that’s already covered.
It’s just that in the previous ‘play-offs’ I had a clear favourite and I really don’t this time…

You really want me to vote, do you?
Well then, let the fact that Time Dreamer only has a non-voting leader instead of a voting leader, and the fact that I’ve voted for E.P.I.C.: Wishmaster in more rounds already, be the deciding factors.
My vote goes to E.P.I.C.: Wishmaster.

I haven’t taken part in the votes this time, because I wasn’t sure if I would have time to participate in the playthrough, it now however seems like that will be the case.
I will however still refrain from voting, as it seems wrong to only vote in the tie-breaker, especially since my vote could have avoided the tie-breaker in the first case But I expect to join whatever of the two games that win.

I don’t know whether I’ll have time to keep up but I tried to download Wishmaster from Alawar. Alawar doesn’t seem to have any info so I don’t know whether I’ve got a demo or the full game & also to install it I need to accept Alawar’s search engine which I don’t want to so Goodbye Alawar! Alawar seems to be greatly lacking on info if you want to buy a game from them?
...also to install it I need to accept Alawar’s search engine which I don’t want to so Goodbye Alawar! Alawar seems to be greatly lacking on info if you want to buy a game from them?
Ouch! Why would they do this? Frustrating.
