So here we are at the second round of the MSX in the Media Challenge megapoll: Our search for coolest appereance of MSX in the Media from May to November 2004. A grand total of 80 different media mentioning MSX were nominated. 4 rounds of voting on the forums and a frontpage poll will decide which one is the coolest of them all.

So, you're new to the mega-polling system? No problem, it's very simple! Below is a list of 20 pairs. Your job is to divide three points between each pair. So with the pair

event A | event B

the following scores are valid:

3 - 0 ;event A | event B
2 - 1 ;event A | event B
1 - 2 ;event A | event B
0 - 3 ;event A | event B

It is NOT permitted to give halve points, the total points divided each pair HAS to be 3 points. You will have to make this decision each pair, until you completed the entire list. Mixing pairs with others is not allowed. Only completely valid submissions will be counted. This round closes December 10th, 23:59.

Funny to see some ego's going through the roof (again).

Euhm.. I'm curious about what you mean with this, Bifi....

0-3; X | Bazix



by the people who are... ahwell, the idea is clear
sorry, couldn't resist.

I was afraid you thought that . I think I'd vote the same if I weren't involved in Bazix, as I honestly think "One Chip MSX on warp2search.net" isn't that big a deal (as w2s essentially posts about every newspost that gets submitted to them ;P), while 'Metal Gear 2 for Mobiles on Konami's Tokyo Gameshow 2004 website' isn't as much MSX news. It's Metal Gear news . Then again, when something you are involved in gets in the media you're very excited about that. That's not ego, it's natural. I'm sure you'd vote 0-3; on X | An item on Albert Beevendorp's Konami collection on national television. ^_^.

Either way, as anyone is free to vote the votes of the 3 people involved in Bazix (of which 2 voted 'til now) will not have that much influence on the final results, in a way that they can easily be 'neutralized' with 2 countervotes .

So, anti-Bazix fanatics, where are you? Vote while you can!
