Thanks everyone that voted until now we are going into right direction and already some games got ahead and it will be added to the list. Caliburn gave excellent proposition to determine points boundary that when reached would immediately add that game to the list so we can concentrate on other games that are still very close to each other and differentiate between them. Looking at the trend in voting I think 4 votes is a right margin. So the first 2 new additions to the list are Resonance and The Cat Lady.

Now we have 26 open positions that I hope will be filled until Monday evening GMT or Tuesday with games that would at least have minimum of 3 votes and then we will proceed with the draw.
I was also thinking about the draw and came to a compromise that the first three or four (I still haven’t decided) rounds have a separate draws (a new draw after each round) and then when only 16 or 8 games remain we would have a final draw with the consistent bracket until the great final. I would really like to hear your opinion about this and modify idea accordingly, so please feel free to express them both the members that already voted and the new ones that I warmly invite to join us in this game.

At the end my votes go to:

Cruise for a Corpse
Flight of the Amazon Queen
Dark Seed
Discworld
Gobliiins
Hand of Fate
Hopkins FBI
KGB
The Adventures of Willy Beamish
The Dagger of Amon Ra
The Lost Files of Sherlock Holmes: The Case of the Rose Tattoo


The Adventures of Willy Beamish


The current situation is:

Wait, I was so focused on newer games and DS titles that I failed to see (or had simply forgotten) Flight of the Amazon Queen and Discworld weren’t in the top 100…

Add my vote to those two as well!



Oh, and to get to 128 games, we’ll need 29 new ones, as you can’t really count #50 as a game…
Maybe give its seed to the highest ranking new game that gets voted on (currently Resonance)? Just a thought…

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

My memory is awful, but looking at the list of already mentioned titles I’d throw in my vote for:

Danganronpa 1
Danganronpa 2
Flight of the Amazon Queen
The Whispered World
Virtue’s Last Reward
Primordia

and last, but not least, I can’t believe no one has mentioned Corpse Party yet!  Pan

I’ll just concentrate on those games already mentioned - others probably won’t be relevant and makes it easier for my memory Wink. So I’ll go for:
To the Moon
The Moment of Silence
Botanicula
Gray Matter
Primordia
The Walking Dead
Resonance too…but it clearly doesn’t need my mention Smile

important ones that jump out to me:
dangran ronpa 1 (i havnt finished 2 yet)
primordia
night of the rabbit
deponia
blackwell epiphany
corpse party

not really sure where to vote for blackwell… seems weird to consider it one game, but then the last one wasnt really my favorite.
But i suppose i’ll add a vote for epiphany to represent the series.

I’m glad things are shaping up nicely, we have 3 more games added to the list:

Edna and Harvey: The Breakout, Discworld, Kentucky Route Zero

Before I list current standings, an idea came to mind that maybe a preliminary group stage would give a more objective results for the first round, instead of direct eliminations. So there will be for example 16 groups of 8 games (from seeded pots) and after your voting 4 of them will advance to the next round where we will continue with the classical knock-out rounds with VS matches.
I added a poll so you could express your opinion about it.

Current results are:

8 votes:
Resonance
Primordia

6 votes:
The Cat Lady

5 votes:
Botanicula
Edna and Harvey: The Breakout
Gray Matter
To the Moon

4 votes:
