The time period for the determination of settings for the PlayChoice-10 Games are over. 48 hours passed after the last vote.

There were three votes which I assumed for the appropriate vote.

There was one vote that I couldn't determine, Steve Krogman's vote. So I asked a neutral person, Ben Jos Walbeehm, who did not vote here, of his opinion. He said since he was talking about continues and such, he suggested the vote be thrown out.

Therefore, based on this unbiased opinion, I must throw out the vote.

Final vote is:

The unlimiteds are seven.

The defaults are six.

The unlimiteds have it, and the DIP Settings for the playchoice games shall be permitted at 3,900 seconds at 1/4 unit / second, or 1 unit / 4 seconds. However, I'm still open to splitting it between unlimited and default. GB9

Splitting games like smb,smb3,castlevania etc is ok for me. I like the option to finish games, but a time challange like in smb is also fun:)

ummm, gameboy, I voted for normal 300ticks, normal time, but it doesn't appear here. If u are not counting that, then the vote is tied.

Where did you vote? You didn't vote on the right thread, and further more, I'm thinking you JUST voted for default, so I can't count it because it was after the deadline of 48 hours after the last vote.

Until I know further evidence, and yes I'm welcome to hear further evidence, I must keep the result of 7 - 6. GB9

Maybe we should recount ? I suggest a hand recount much more accurate than an automatic one ... And don't forget the overseas ballots, Gameboy ...

I received an email to vote on this issue. If I remember right, gb it was from QT. Voted in that fashion

You didn't answer my question Chris. Where on the message board did you vote?

Still welcome to your answer. GB9

it looks like he voted to QT as an email, an absentee message board ballet :)

I sent out an e-mail to about 10 MARPers who I knew were active, but didn't receive anything back from them, aside from Crash, who posted to the board. I'm willing to believe Chris might have sent it to the wrong address, but that doesn't really matter. The PC_10 vote wasn't as decisive as I had hoped, and turnout on it was pretty damn pathetic considering the total amount of MARPers we have active right now.

I'll ask MARPers to continue submitting under 300 for the next week or so, while this is sorted out. I'm liking Zwaxy's idea of wswitching boards to one with a polling set-up a lot more, hwere we won't have these wild 9-different idea votes that then have to be recategorized.
