I have played exactly 3 of these games, so that's how I've voted. Conscience dictates that I shouldn't vote for something I haven't played.

(Luckily, this does not hold true for political candidates.) gulp

Maybe the same who have only one game in their "inventory" and only rate one game and have no other "traffic" whatsoever...

Experience teaches us that it is much easier to prevent an enemy from posting themselves than it is to dislodge them after they have got possession.

DISCRIMINATION!
I am but a poor humble working man who has spent 8 of the past 12 months unemployed. I have no geekbadge or avatar. I can not vote! This whole process is elitist.
I, a grognard of more than 40 years denied the right to vote.
Shame. Shame!!

Same here, I've never earned enough GeekGold to buy an Avatar! I just got these measly little "mini-avatars" a few days ago, trying my best to fit in with the grognard crowd. Oh the SHAME! *sniff* cry
