I also want to announce what we will be doing for August/September. It may be hard to believe but this project is about to reach its 10 year anniversary. I have been a participant of this project since the beginning, but some of you may not know/remember that it was MegamanX who created and originally ran it. He asked me to take over in May of 2016 and gave me all of the info up to that point, so I know that the first monthly topic began in October of 2014.
However, we have a double birthday for that month, so I'm going to celebrate the project's creation instead of when we had our first month of games (they were Jak and Daxter: The Precursor Legacy and Tales of Xillia for those wondering).
So here's what is going to happen:
-
For the month of August,
everyone gets a flat five nominations
-
Also in the month of August,
everyone
gets unlimited supports
-
While I'm still debating if I want to have four or five games drawn that will be featured in September, the
winning games will all be from unique original nominators
to get as many people represented.
In case there's any confusion about the first bullet point, everyone will get five nominations (you don't have to use them all) that won't be increased with beating any of Castle on the Coast, NORCO, or Call of the Sea.
As for the final bullet point, what I mean is that if I were to nominate Halo: Combat Evolved, Halo 2, Halo 3, Halo 3: ODST, and Halo: Reach for my five, everyone supports all five, and a Halo game occupies the first 25 spots in the drawing, only the first one drawn will be featured in September as I was the original nominator for all five of those Halo games. I can do a visual example using a mock post-drawing list that I do every month for transparency, but I hope my explanation was good enough.
