EAB/Lemon Super League 2016: Round 7 - Mystery Round Nominations
Starts: 00:01 April 10 Finishes: 23:59 April 29

Welcome to the first ever Mystery Round. In it, players will select two games (plus one as backup) they wish to include on the voting list for Round 7, and will PM one of the moderators with their choice. The full list of games will then be unveiled when Round 7 voting proper gets underway, with only games on that list eligible to be chosen.

Rules

- Only players who have submitted at least one score this season between the start of Round 1 and the closing date of this thread are allowed to make their nominations.

- Pick two games you are ideally not very familiar with that can also be scored in a suitable manner for the competition, plus one backup choice just in case one proves not to be suitable, or one of your choices gets voted in for Round 6, in which case the backup will take the original game's place.

- PM one of the competition's moderators with your selections. They can't be changed after submission, and games can't be chosen from the list below. Do not tell anyone else your vote or post it here!

- When Round 7 voting starts, only nominated games can be voted for in the usual manner.

Bugged Games

Marble Madness - not possible to get a screenshot on a real Amiga as it disappears off screen too quickly to take a photo.

If you know of any games that could cause problems please PM Graham, mihcael or lifeschool.

Any other queries, please post here or PM a moderator...

The idea is to choose three games, 2 plus a backup, which you perhaps tried briefly but never went back to (including trying a friends copy), tried ages ago but never got off level 1, and cant really remember it. Never tried at all; but perhaps seen adverts (read reviews, looked at images on the Lemon/HOL database etc). Always wanted to try, but never did. DONT choose games you are familiar with.

But you dont have to be totally unfamiliar with a game because, Yes you can try the game once to make sure it would be suitable for the competition. It must have some kind of score, time, or volume in the game - which can be measured by taking a single screenshot at the point of game over.

Flight Sims, RPGs and Point N Click adventures are usually unsuitable, as are games with no time limit, in which the player can get unlimited score from respawning enemies.

If the same game is voted for by more than one voter, then there are two options, either we count that as one vote, or we go with the backup choice of the repeating voters. Thats another reason for the backup choice in case one or both of your other choices have already been chosen.

Of course, dont chat or talk about your votes or potential games on here. PM one of the mods with any questions or comments.

Bump. Just in case anyone has forgotten about this. Still two weeks to go though, and we've had seven people submit nominations so far.

[Graham Humphrey]

Another bump. Just four days left now. Thanks to all those who have submitted nominations so far, and if anyone else would like to do so, best get a move on now...

[Graham Humphrey]

Last day for nominations is today. Anybody else...?
