Hey guys!
I just thought I'd run a fun little mock-competition here. There are no prizes or hand-outs other than simply the honour of being considered amoung the top 10 games in Pascal game development history.
All you have to do to participate is reply in this thread whichever games you feel should be added to the big list and considered amoung the top 10. I will then gather up all these games after the nomination period ends and then add a poll to this thread with all of these games that any and all PGD Members can all vote on.
Once the voting period is done the results will be fixed and the winning teams will be shown.
Nomination period: NOW - Oct 10th
Voting period: Oct 10th - Dec 20th
The criteria for a game is simple:
:arrow: It must be made primarily using Pascal (Turbo/Borland Pascal, Delphi, Free Pascal, Lazarus, Dev-Pascal, Kylix, Vector Pascal, TMT Pascal are a few tools that it might have been made with.)
:arrow: It must have been made BEFORE today!
:arrow: It needs to be at least a completed game or in mature demo state.
:arrow: Your game and any other commercial, independent, freeware, shareware or other games ARE acceptable so long as they follow the above criteria. This also includes PGD Annual competition entries that were completed into a game or mature demo state.
NOTE: Not required, but any link to a working demo or game website, might help others that have not played the game themselves to gather an opinion.
Let the nominations begin... :)

Ok change of plans!
I'm going to change the way we are going to be voting. Now to vote, you have to post your 'top 5' games in order like so.
1) Game Name (given 5 points)
2) Game Name (given 4 points)
3) Game Name (given 3 points)
4) Game Name (given 2 points)
5) Game Name (given 1 points)
You can only choose 5 from the list of nominees. And you have to mark them from 1 to 5. That means that I'll only add points for 5 games and score them in order of how they are numbered. You cannot repeat a game title for extra points!
These votes will be manually scored by myself. (I started it so I'll at least do the work ;)) And after the voting period is complete I'll compile a big list of all the scores and post the PGD Member decided 'Top 10 Best Pascal Games! 8)
:!: Those of you that have already voted, please post here to vote now. The existing poll will be removed. :!:
