[Archived] Time for a new community playthrough?
As acrimonious as this has become, perhaps this vote should be cancelled. I find no joy in playing a CPT that wins under these circumstances.
Why don’t you look at your own posts for once. Just this one time. You always want “your” game to win, no matter what.
What are you talking about? Neither of “My Games” won the last vote. And yet I was an active participant in the playthrough.

they toll for thee.

I didn’t say you succeeded. But I should have kept my big mouth shut. I apologize to everybody for ruining your voting round.

If nothing changes with the voting by this Sunday, we can put an unofficial pause on the cp until enthusiasm returns and someone starts the voting again.
Difficult roads often lead to beautiful destinations.
I think that if Still Life (for example) reaches five votes, should be enough for an official CPT, right? Let’s see what happens with Advie’s vote…

I agree. If there are five votes, a CPT is possible. The last CPT, Amerzone, struggled through with five players. A few joined the playthrough, and a few dropped out. It would seem that five is the minimum.
I think you see Karlok joining, but I haven’t seen her vote. So that leaves the two of us. If Karlok does join, that makes three. And if Advie is released on probation, that makes four votes. Still one short of the magic number.
If there are no other votes, then we take a deep breath and put everything on hold. If that happens, Lady K will let us know when the next voting session will start.
Side note: I witnessed the “goings on” on the Monkey Island thread. I have no problem with Advie’s punishment. But I can think of at least four other individuals that were involved that equally deserved some sort of reprimand. And so I wonder why we shouldn’t count his vote.

You must count Nico2021’s vote, so Still Life’s got three votes right now.

I’ve just seen that Still Life is in my GOG library so I’ll cast a vote for it.
I’m very keen though to finish Amerzone first - other things have cropped up but hopefully in the next few days.
I do have a disc version of Still Life but the disc drive in my old XP doesn’t work, my Win 10 doesn’t have a disc drive at all & my external disc drive doesn’t work any more either!

If you know someone with CD drive, you can create an ISO image of the CD with that computer and then work with it in your computer.

It may be too expensive for game-playing, but if you have semi-regular need for copying to/from a CD/DVD, you can get a reader that plugs into a usb port from Amazon for around $21 US. I’ve got one as well as a 3.5 floppy reader.

walas, I’m not sure I know anyone that lives near enough that has a CD drive & as I still have a lot of games on disc it would be worth investing in another external CD drive which Tim is just a different term for the type of reader you mentioned.
As said though I have Still Life in my GOG library but I appreciate the suggestions - thank you! 
Somehow my message got lost. It’s great that you have a way to play the game. I think we have reached the critical number. And I’m hopeful others will join if the game wins.

I don’t understand how anybody can think I voted for Still Life. I have not shown any interest in this game. What’s more, I cancelled my vote for The Neverhood.

No I didn’t see you voting for Still Life either Karlok. Another time though I would consider joining in with a playthrough of The Neverhood - graphically it never appealed to me but I’ve read such good reports!
