Ok, I'm known for being an obsessive listmaker. But here's an idea I have.

I think MB should have an official video games list, but instead of making it myself, I think it would be a great idea to make a group effort out of it. And here's how it will be done.

Pretty simple really. Each member makes a list of their top 10 favorite games of all time. And the rules are as follows.

1. It HAS to be a top 10, nothing more nothing less.
2. They have to be ranked in order.
3. Some games have similar or indentical titles to others, in these cases it's required that you be specific about which version you're talking about.
4. It's only acceptable to have two games sharing one position if they are brother and sister games, for example the Pokemon games, or the Zelda Oracle games.
5. Each member can only submit one list obviously, but they can change their lists if they see fit.
6. There is no restriction on how many games from a certain series or genre you can add to your list, make it however you see fit.
7. Add a sum up of why each game is among your favorites. They can be just minor sum ups or long and detailed descriptions of why each game means so much to you.

The reason I want you to rank the games in order is because they will become part of a point system to determine how high a game will end up on the official list. #1 is worth ten points, #2 is worth nine and so on. The amount of points by each member and the total of votes will determine a games placing in the list, whichever game gets the most rankings as #1 will become MB's official choice for greatest video game ever made.

The voting will continue until a top 100 list is completed. There may be tie breakers along the way for those that have the same amount of talied points. If there are not enough votes to help complete the list, I will ask every member who has already submitted a top 10 to expand their lists to a top 20, the points will be counted and these will be added to the list.

When the list is completed I will have a mod close this thread, and then start a thread with the final results.
