I'll get on organizing a second tournament in a while. But first, I want
to update the Item Name fields of preset pages to match the names used for
games by Game Courier. As I did last time, I will do an approval poll
first, followed by a ranked poll. I suggest that we automatically place
the ten most popular games from the approval poll into the ranked poll, no
matter whether we played any in the last tournament, and then fill the
remaining spots only with games that were not played in the previous
tournament. We could cap it at about 20, including any games that tie for
20th place and were not played in the previous tournament. This method, or
one like it, would allow the tournament to retain some of the most popular
games without ruling them out for being played last time, and it would
help make the list of games for this tournament different from the list
used for the last tournament. And if there are any particular games you do
not want in two tournaments in a row, you could avoid voting for them.
