Well, since there are more games than entrants it seems pretty likely that everyone is liable to win something, whether or not it's their first choice. Hooray!

So tonight's draw is going to be a double. Not much interest, so I'm not super inclined to drag this out the whole month.

1) Outland:
Sasuke : 3 lots (1-3)
Swatkat: 1 lot (4)

And...random.org spits out a 2! Congrats to Sasuke. Pm to follow.

2) Endless Space (debated saving this for last, but eh):

del_pierro : 2 lots (1-2)
wolfsrain: 2 lots (3-4)
trent: 2 lots (5-6)

And random.org says....4. Congrats to wolfsrain. PM to follow.

I will say that Trent had probably my favorite post - very nice. But since he didn't talk about Canada or link his WL it's still only worth 2. Swatkat, del_pierro, and Trent are all free to enter for any remaining games on the board.

Sorry if I seem a bit underwhelmed - I am very grateful (errr...thankful) to everyone who has taken the time to participate, I just apparently don't have the touch (or perhaps, the right games) to draw a big crowd.

I have only been to Canada once in 1991. I was in the Marine Corps training at Whidbey Island off the coast of Washington. Me and some friends decided to visit Vancouver. Was a nice city, but to be honest I don't remember much about it except for one thing. Everywhere I looked there seemed to be very attractive women, I was surprised at how many there were just hanging out in places. I was surprised to find out they were all women you could have a good time with for the exchange of money, and the even had cards to show you they were clean. I did not partake of this option, but was surprised it was even an option LOL

I've been there several times, but uh, never noticed that. Though there are lots of arguments for legalizing and regulating prostitution, and public health is certainly one.

Back when the exchange rate was favorable, and before Vancouver got so expensive, though, you could get a fantastic dinner for like $5-7 dollars U.S.

Also, from the upper floors in the UBC dorms, you get one hell of a view. Perhaps Hijack should try and meet some women from UBC. ;)

Also, the downtown Vancouver library is a fantastic building.

Thanks for the game.

And happy thanksgiving day.

Hope you cooked and enjoyed turkey for dinner.

Happy Canadian Thanksgiving (i understand that your US neighbors are celebrating it a wee bit later, usually).

That's mighty fine of you Mr. Reserve Pope.

Sorry for derailing your thread. I have no idea why more people aren't entering.

I've had low attendance at every GA I've done. My threads must have a funky odor or something and people are just too polite to tell me. :) I actually thought I was designing this one pretty carefully to make a very low bar for entry [while still rewarding people who wanted to put in more effort].

That said, I know there's some loss of participation just for the fact they are steam games, and most of these were available in bundles or other GAs (vvvvvv) over the past 10 months, so possible people have them.

Wasn't expecting hundreds of entries (nor necessarily would have wanted that) I just thought I might have closer to 30 entries than 10-12.

Not all of them are well-known games (kromaia) so I included the links so that people could easily check them out - almost all of them are highly rated. Anyway, if there are no new entries by the time I do the next drawing (either Thur night or Friday depending on travel I think) I'll probably wind it down.

I really love it when GA hosts do this. I haven't heard of any of the games here and if it wasn't for the links I'd probably would have skipped it (too lazy to look them up myself ;), but Tetrobot really looked like something I'd enjoy.

Hopefully you enjoy it - the predecessor (Blocks that Matter) is also well worth a look, though there are some significant differences in the game engine, the overall style is similar.

BtM is more of a platform puzzler, and T&C was tweaked to be more of a pure puzzler. Both are excellent and quite challenging, just in slightly different ways.

Though I confess I'm only about 50% of the way through each ;)

1 or 2 more bumps and at this rate may well do the last drawings tomorrow/Fri unless we get some new blood.

Anyone already in who wants to change the game they are in for may do so.

Im in for the next round for Trine 2.

Just got in from the road to discover I'm having computer problems on my main. (this is my broken backup)

Hopefully nothing big - Windows 7 just unhappy about trying to launch with updates with no wifi connection and now in a broken startup loop. But assuming it's going to take a bit to fix, tomorrow night is a safer bet for draws.

Okay, 2 games currently in contention.

Kromaia
Cardangrille (uncontested)

Auto-winner (PM to follow)

And...our biggest pool yet with 4 entrants and 8 lots:

Trine 2:

Swatkat 1 lot (1)
Paladin 2 (2-3)
HSL 3 (4-6)
Leonard 2 (7-8).


And random.org says....(drum roll)...6!

Congrats to HSL who entered for Leonard. Key to follow.

Drawing will remain open til tomorrow (call it 24 hours from now).

Wish there had been a few more in, but thanks to everyone who participated!

Game list updated for winners. Assuming I can count, that leaves nine games up and no current entrants.

Anyone who has not yet won a game is eligible to enter/re-enter. Assuming things aren't going to pick up, however, I'm going to close it as soon as tomorrow if there aren't any entries at that point.

I recommend Kingdom Rush to anyone who likes tower defense at all.

Woohoo! Thanks bler! Thanks HSL!!!
