Hi,
Yup, it's that time of the year again and this time there's even a
Grand Prize for you to win : Arjuna has graciously offered an
autographed boxed copy of Battles from the Bulge (when done) to one
lucky participant. No need to tell you this is a unique item, and to
make it absolutely clear : voting for Conquest of the Aegean will *not*
increase your chances of winning it (*).
The Rules :
1) 1 (wo)man, 1 post - all votes in the open, no emails.
2) The game must have been published in 2006
3) Post your 1st, 2nd and 3rd place choices - 1st place gets 5 points,
2nd gets 3 points, 3rd gets 1 point.
4) Votes must be in before January 15th, 2006
5) In case of a tie, the award is shared.
6) Developers are strongly encouraged to vote as well - there's no
shame in believing your baby is the best looking.
This is what's at stake for the developers - created by Daniel :

(*) This is how the winner of the autographed boxed copy of Panther
Games' Battles from the Bulge will be decided :
1) Every entry/voter is given a random number by me
2) When the election is over I zip this list, password protect it and
send it to Mr. Beretta and everyone else asking for it - without the
password.
3) I'll ask Mr. Giftzwerg to pick and post a number between 1 and ...
4) I release the password so Mr. Beretta and everyone else can check
who won the game.
