If we overload them with votes and get Turbine in the top 10, can we get another +1 loot weekend or a return of the Jester?

Voted. >:3

How many times can we vote? I'm assuming just one vote per person, but hey, if it's like, once per hour. . . I've suddenly got something to do every hour.

I've played Guild Wars. I'd have to go with Turbine, FTW!

I voted Turbine...

But, I find it rather ironic that we're experiencing this logon issue right after Quarion posted this thread. I can hear the groans from the Turbine offices now...crappy timing, man! :p

Account created, and voted. Let us know when Turbine advances with a new link.

Yeah I see Bioware giving Turbine a run for their money, but since currently I am not playing any bioware games (and I have played plenty) and I am playing ddo Turbine will take my vote if it comes between the two.

Huzzah I say!

I think the entire Turbine team deserves a pat on the back for some well earned recognition.

*pat pat*

Errr... I forgot. Cubes don't exactly have 'backs'. :o

If we all also vote for Bizarre, that may help things out a bit! ;)

My thoughts exactly...

That'd definitely be a tough call.

If we get enough of us to vote for Turbine, then can we get an expansion (even a paid one), like that other Turbine game (the one that shall not be named) is getting in a few months?

Voted again. :3 Also, as of 12:56 PM CST, Blizzard and Irrational are tied. Oo *Has been looking at the results for most seeds.* That's really surprising to me. . . Would have thought Blizzard would have a bunch of raving fans voting for them. Guess not. :D

Voted for Turbine, though. *Waves a flag.* ^^

Turbine goes up against Capcom on the 27th.

The winner is then likely to head on to face Bioware...

Yeah, it's not a good poll, hehe

Blizzard got their ass-kicked, and I have an hard time believing this. After all, how many peeps play WoW?

Aye, when a WoW fan likes to point to number of subscribers as proof that WoW is a great game I point them towards the National Enquirer(sp?).....

Both have what a lot of people want. Just a matter of taste.

DOH!!!!... I was hoping it would not come down to Bioware Vs Turbine...

Bioware has given me the best Gaming experience of any company ever....ever...ever..*Knights of the old Republic I is still the best game I ever played, followed closely by Mass effect*
But Turbine is giving me a Constant good gaming experience.

ACK!!! WHAT TO DO!!!!!

Don't get me wrong I loved KOTR & KOTR2, and let us not forget NWN also was from Bioware, however I must admit I have gotten much more play out of DDO.

Hated KOTR2, I don't count that against Bioware since they did not make it.

True I have gotten longer enjoyment out of DDO... But I still got More Enjoyment from Bioware...
