Welcome to the New EGL Voting Center
EGL is a place for prestigious games that have stood the test of time, and this list should continue grow over time as more games revolutionize other games or are just of a high level of quality. EGL voting is open to all soldiers and above for voting and suggesting games as the majority of us should have a decent feel for what a good game is or how a game influenced us.
What is the Criteria for the Game to go Into EGL:
Required:- The game must be feature worthy by today's standards.
- The game must have been out for 3 or more months. (This is to see how it holds up over time)
- The game should have been exceptional for the time and maintain a high level of quality throughout.
- The game must take, on average, over 1 minute to complete. (A good game has content AND quality)
Recommended but NEVER Required:- The game has a lasting effect on other games (is revolutionary), this reason may not be used for games under 8 months old.
- The game does something unique. (Do not confuse this with being Revolutionary)
- The game has well done visuals.
How to suggest games:
To suggest a game please fill out the following and post it in this thread, it should only take you a few minutes:
Name of game:
Why this game is worthy:
Yes: 1
No: 0
Rules for Suggested Games:- Previously suggested games may be held for a revote after 4 months past voting.
- They must fit the required criteria.
- They should have been released a minimum of 3 months ago
- There should be no more than 1 game being voted on at one time
- They must not be your own game
Voting:
You may vote yes or no to a game, should a game have over 15 votes or over 70% no's after 3 days of voting the game will be denied. If a game has been under voting for 3 days and is at 70% yes then it will be accepted into EGL and the first paragraph submitted will be used for the entry. All voting takes place inside of this thread. No reason is required, however it is highly recommended. Don't be a do
uche and post no or yes without playing the game. To vote yes or no to a game post:
Game name:
Total Yes:
Total No:
Your Vote:
Vetoing:
If there is a game that does not meet the criteria for EGL or it was a game that was never voted on (IE: The games Darut added in on his own accord) then you may suggest for a Veto in a similar manner to suggesting a game to be voted on. Note that you may not suggest games added in the past 3 months. The first step is to file a suggestion:
Name of game:
What criteria doesn't this game meet:
Yes to veto: 1
No to veto: 0
Date game was published:
Once the game has been suggested the game will be voted on. ALL votes must supply a reason (you may quote another user for this). If the voting reaches 20 or more votes it will be removed unless it is at over 50% yes. If the game is over 8 votes and has over 70% no then it will be removed. If the game ever reaches over 70% yes after 8 votes then the voting ends and the game is removed.
