Hmm, at least that puts a little bit more traction behind my next idea. If I've thought this through correctly, going through each entry should be a relatively quick matter.

I'm on the way to create a voting thread, let's see if I can bake some scrapes of humour into it.

Like in most contests, winners and losers will be declared, and prizes will be given out.

I would first like to thank MoP for their participation, although their 7 acquired votes were not enough for a place on the podium.

For the rest of you:
dandi8 got a staggering 32 votes, taking first place with ease.
RaggieRags and Stelis are tied at 18 votes, good thing they're in the same prize range at second and third place.
GoJays2025 at 13 votes and Titanium at 9 got to 4th and 5th place, respectively.

Reiterating the prize list, so you won't have to go back to the OP:
dandi8 gets to chose TWO of these (not two of the same bullet point):
* one $9.99 GOG OR two $5.99 GOGs
* one $5.99 GOG
* Sam & Max season 1 (Telltale)
* Sam & Max season 2 (Telltale)
* Sam & Max season 3 (Telltale) (limited:1)
* Strongbad's Cool Game for Attractive People (Telltale) (limited:1)
* Riven (disc, French) (limited:1)
* Deus Ex (disc, French) (limited:1)

RaggieRags and Stelis each get to chose ONE of these:
* one $9.99 GOG OR two $5.99 GOGs
* Sam & Max season 1 (Telltale)
* Sam & Max season 2 (Telltale)
* Sam & Max season 3 (Telltale) (limited:1)
* Strongbad's Cool Game for Attractive People (Telltale) (limited:1)
* Riven (disc, French) (limited:1)
* Deus Ex (disc, French) (limited:1)

GoJays2025 and Titanium each get:
* one $5.99 GOG

Also, thanks to all of you, it's been really fun.

Voters, if you missed it, please look at the voting thread for your random draw.

Well, a round of applause to everyone and congratulations to dandi8 for the first place!

Miaghstir, thank you for organizing this contest! Your generosity overwhelms me.

From the prize list, I choose: Jack Orlando, Journeyman Project 2.

I'm glad we got enough votes after all. Congrats to dandi8, and thank you for the voters! An especially big thanks to Miaghstir for the generous prizes and for putting so much effort on the contest!

I pick Icewind Dale for my prize. I'm at ashi@kolumbus.fi. Thank you again!

I'll tend to you two as I get home in a couple of hours. This is also a bump for the other three.

There you go, your choices have been sent out.

As for you three, this is my try to get your attention, look a few posts above.

Right! Great! Redneck Rampage Collection for me please. Just post the code on gogpm, no need to fiddle with email.

Thanks again, Miaghstir! Mail received.

I'm waiting for GoJays2025 and dandi8, then I'll give you a small peek at my thoughts for the next contest, to try and see how much interest there is for it.

Sorry, I saw this last night but couldn't decide on a game! But... I think I'll try Giants: Citizen Kabuto. I liked Armed & Dangerous a lot, so it only makes sense for me to play Giants as well.

Thanks a lot!

Congats to the winners!

I'd post that in a separate thread. I think that most people aren't going to expect to see anything particularly new in this one anymore.

You're welcome.

Wow, damn! Thanks guys! Didn't expect this.

Terribly sorry for not responding earlier, I had a ton of work to do. Will respond shortly with my choice.

Yay :D

Edit:
Is Far Cry + Duke Nukem 3D a viable choice? My E-mail is dandi8 at gmail.

Thanks again for making the contest! Gotta run, be back later to check the thread :)

Of course.

The story quite reminded me of the .hack anime series, where people get trapped inside an MMO, loosing their consciousness in the real world.

Redeemed, thank you! Will have something to do once I finish writing those damn essays.

If you could post here or inform me once you start your next contest then that would be great. I love contests (even though I'm pretty sure this is the first time I got first place) :P
