Hi! I usually just lurk, but I saw this around and I
figure I'd drop you guys a line and push you guys to
vote. =) Pass the word on, and all that. =)

Enjoy!

Something of note: the booth doesn't remember you by IP or by cookies
evidently because I not masking my IP and I have cookies enabled and I
voted 3 (or was it four) times.

Of course, it looks like SR just might win on this booth.

Haven't you noticed something hinky with the numbers though? The
percentages add up to 99.9%, yet no other rpg has any votes. Who has
the last .1% ;)

Nah, it's just round-off error. ;-)

One flaky thing I noticed about their page was when it auto-reloads, the RPG's
with 0% & 0 votes, will _occasionally_ get small bar graph entries. Then on the
next reload, they're back to none.

As far as I can tell, it gives you five votes. Run free. =)

If that's the case, might I suggest a non-Shadowrun use for at least one of
them. In particular, I think both Blue Planet and Unknown Armies are better
than just about anything else on the market.
