Votes must add up to 20.

[Moniker]

Votes must add up to 20.

Ya. I think it's pretty unreasonable to expect any mathematics on my part more advanced than addition.

[Observer]

lol, I said it was half baked! I'm ranking them in order with a shared first place for those three I pointed out so I don't forget. Please give me time, I'm sick, tired and my brain is about to shut down. I'll edit my post soon!

[Van_Artic]

[5] Ring^-27

Two Important Announcements:

Deadline Revision: April 15 is the new deadline (partly because I don't want to wait that long, and partly because I don't want people to forget about it if they plan on voting later on.)

Minor rule elaboration: It occurs to me that it may be hard to differentiate your vote with a big list, so feel free to use (reasonable!) fractions if you want. Still limit yourself to 20 games, though.

EG:
Hydorah - 5.5
Kamui - 3.5
Ring^-27 - 3
Touhou 6 - 2
Touhou 7 - 1.5
Touhou 8 - 1.5
Reflex - 1
BWR+ - 1
Eden's Aegis 0.5
Patriot Dark - 0.5

I'll crosspost this to the discussion thread and update the OP.

[Taylor]

Eden's Aegis: 5
Touhou 10: Mountain of Faith: 5
Crimzon Clover: 4
Blue Wish Resurrection Plus: 3
Trouble Witches: 3

for now...

Phantasm Romance - 3
Crimzon Clover - 2
Eden's Aegis - 2
TH 4 Lotus Land Story - 2
TH 5 Mystic Square - 2
Phantasmagoria Trues - 2
TH 9 (Phantasmagoria of Flower View) - 2
TH 12.8 (Great Fairy Wars) - 1
TH 12 (Undefined Fantastic Object) - 1
TH 8 (Imperishable Night) - 1
TH 7 (Perfect Cherry Blossom) - 1
TH 12.5 (Double Spoiler) - 1

notes:
- I'm waiting for Awesome Blue Guy, Aero Chimera and Stella Vanity
- I need to play lots of games (Diadra Empty, Hellsinker, BWR, Alltynex series, Soeur De Barrage, stuff from Platine Dispositif, Banshiryuu) and need to play more (Ether Vapor, Samidare, Scarlet Meister, SuwaPyon), need to procrastinate less

edit:
- oops I didn't see the 20 votes limit, killing the previous tier 1 then
- if I were to follow the "the other games that aren't Phantasm Romance don't need my votes, other people will vote for them" logic, I'd just leave Phantasm Romance with 20 :p (instead I'll be a scrub and not abuse the system in favor of this game) screw that, go go go srsmode :p
- I wish I could add Phantasmagoria Trues' multipliers to Phantasm Romance, it would be instant win

Yeah... not really in the spirit of the voting. The idea isn't so much to promote your favorite doujin, as create a nice list that people can refer to. Obviously I can't certainly determine the motive behind your vote, but you know, be a bro and all that.

Like I said, I won't be anal, so knock them down to two decimal places, and we'll be peachy.

Edit: Same goes for Naut. I'll count your score as is if you insist, but wouldn't you rather be a hero and do it properly?

[Naut]

Ah, I wasn't trying to troll or anything, but I'll fix it if you insist.
