couldn't you just modify your script to also check for - as well as ;?timetokill said:Please double-check the format of your posts.
The easiest way is to do the following:
- Copy+paste the Sample Ballot in the OP
- Copy+paste your game selections from post #2
Things to keep note of:
Honorable mentions in your list, if you want them counted by the parser (and we ARE tracking honorable mentions), must be listed like this:
x. Game Title (i.e., x. Duck Hunt)
Did you use a roman numeral in your post?
Wrong: Final Fantasy XIII
Correct: Final Fantasy 13
A number of you are formatting your descriptions incorrectly as well. Use a semi-colon ( after the name of the game and before your description.
Wrong:
1. Duck Hunt - the best game about shooting at ducks ever.
Correct:
1. Duck Hunt ; the best game about shooting at ducks ever.

On the grand scheme of things it's no effort on anyone's part to just follow the format this closely but on the other hand this + having to go down the list and exactly copy+paste the way you chose to name/spell the game is really making this needlessly complicated for a simple top 10.
Ah well, this will be interesting to see how many votes were not counted properly due to this year's new system.

I had to specify that one of my games was imported and that I played the Wii version of Ivy the Kiwi? instead of the DS version (they're different enough that they should be counted separately imo)

What about the games that were only released in Europe this year and have (PAL) in their title? (As per the list in post #2.)Cheesemeister said:Just to be clear, anything within parentheses will be automatically removed.

# New games released to your region this year (can be retail only or downloadable).
# Voting for imported titles is allowed. If you list an import game, please mention which country you are from. Otherwise I will assume you didn't read the rules and the vote will not count.

Why does this even matter?Cheesemeister said:Do vote for imports. It's mostly a matter of checking for new-to-Europe titles.

What does your regex look like?

I'm in the UK so it doesn't count for me, but lets say someone wanted to vote for Demon's Souls in the US because they only played it this year even though they could have last year, why does that need policing?
