(I’m posting this a little early because I’m tired as crap and won’t be up for another hour. I will still allow entries to be submitted for voting up until the time set before (11:59PM EST Tonight), and I will add said entries to the list first thing in the morning. If I forgot anybody, please let me know, but I think I have everyone thus far listed below.)

The voting phase for the 8-bit contest has begun. You will be eligible to vote from Monday, June 8th (12:00AM EST) through Friday, July 26th (11:59PM EST). Everyone that is a member of the forums is welcome to vote.
Rules for voting:

- Vote for your three most favorite games. You number one will equal three points, two = two, and third will be for one point.

- You MAY NOT vote for your own game. Those who participated in the contest are REQUIRED to vote.

- Votes MUST be submitted via PM on Castle Paradox or Slime Salad. Do not post your votes in this thread. You may also mail your votes to me at mballsub@gmail.com.

The results will be posted in the next issue of Hamsterspeak (July, #2Cool.

Okay, I have added the rest of the entries to the list. Those who have voted early, I will gladly change your votes if you decide on different games. However, I will only make this change once, so choose wisely.

Also, I have decided to let those who failed to meet the deadline submit their entries. However, said games will not be eligible for the bonus points and also have -1 points for each day it is late.

If you have any questions, please let me know.

Really suprised by the quality of the games this time... especially considering that everyone only had a month or so to make them. I guess I'll have to start paying more attention to contest games from now on, heh.

Seriously, some of these are so good that I'd gladly plunk quarters into them if I found them in an arcade somewhere. (Don't Eat Soap especially--at first I was afraid it was going to be some dinky joke game where you lose if you let him eat the soap... but then it became a near-perfect Bubble Bobble clone instead. And the whole thing was made in less than a month!? Wow.)

I have received a decent amount of votes so far, but we need more. Remember, if you submitted a game for voting then you MUST vote yourself and not vote for your own game.

Just a reminder, those who have not voted yet:

Camdog
Ronin Catholic
Momoka
James Paige
RMZ
Pepsi Ranger
Blue Train

Keep those votes coming, people!

Absolute last day to vote, people! Those who have not voted and are required to do so will be docked 3 points if no votes are submitted in time.

There's a good reason behind this -- since participants may not vote for their own games, it's to their advantage to abstain (rather than give points to other entrants). This penalty counteracts that.
