RPG Codex Video Games Top 100 (Vote thread) - Not the official Codex poll

We're making a survey of our own top 100 video games of all time.

Any console, any genre, any language. Arcade, console, PC, mobile. Single player or multiplayer. AAA or indie. Retro or zoomer. Single player or multiplayer. If it's electronic, it's elegible.

To participate, first list in this thread EXACTLY 25 different games that -
a) belong in the top 100 video games of all time
b) and are your favorite 25 of such games

Then, assign 1-3 points to each game, 30 points total for all 25. Assign no more than 3 points to any game and no less than 1 point. For any ballot with less than 25 different games, each game will only receive 1 point.

It seems some people want to list more than 25 games. So if that's the case, I offer the following advanced options:

Basic Option: 25 games, 30 points total
Advanced Option 1: 50 games, 60 points total
Advanced Option 2: 75 games, 90 points total
Advanced Option 3: 100 games, 120 points total
Maximum is still 3 points for any single game.

Finally, you may list up to 25 games to DOWNVOTE. These will count as 0 point votes and will decrease the average of those games.

I will be counting different versions on different platforms as votes for the same game so no need to list different versions. For example, Gauntlet (Arcade), Gauntlet (PC) and Gauntlet (NES) are all Gauntlet, same for Tetris, Ultima IV, etc. For remakes it will depend on the game on an individual basis.

Only members with at least 500 posts will be counted! Please no more than 1 post to vote in this thread and put your comments in the discussion thread.

Gregz a list of games WITHOUT rpgs (by our own stupid definition of rpgs that include JA2 and SC2) is just idiotic. It also means that any game which DIDN'T make our top 100 rpgs would be eligible. For example, Darkest Dungeon would be eligible which is doubly idiotic.

If you want to EXCLUDE games that are on our top 100 rpg poll then we can do that POST voting.

Everyone this thread is for voting only so please change your post to vote or nuke it. Discuss in the original discussion thread.

Why do you make the voting system so complicated, what are those advanced options? It's a mess. Why games that are not in the codex top rpgs? So people is going to have to go check all the games on that list just no not mess it up.
Only users with 500 posts can vote? What? I've been playing video games since 1994. This is a disrespect :outrage:

That is the main issue of contention right now. I agree it's dumb. I don't stipulate that.

The 500 posts clause is for a variety of reasons. One is that several Codexers have alt accounts, so this is better than nothing.

What about not allowing to vote to people who registered after the creation of the thread that proposed to make this top. That would help a little in case some people created new accounts anticipating the voting. I admit though, that that post quantity clause sounds effective to avoid what you say.
