    TouchArcade Forum's winners for last week GotW are:

    1st: Warhammer Quest
    2nd: Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic
    3rd: Little Luca

    Congratulations to all the winners!

    Last week's thread:
    http://forums.toucharcade.com/showthread.php?t=191450

    The first part is nomination where every member can vote up to 5 games to be included in the poll. 10 games with the most nominations will then be added to the poll late on Sunday. Poll will remain open until next Wednesday and whichever game has the most legit votes, will be the GOTW.

    Please note:

    1) Developers cannot vote for their own games. If your game is in the poll, you can't vote. You are free to ask TA forum posters in your game release thread to vote for your game... but please don't post multiple messages about it.
    2) This voting is for TA members - no outsiders allowed. If you have to ask someone to create a new account to vote, you're doing it wrong.
    Suspect votes may be discounted.
    3) Please note this poll is for forum members, so if you create an account and vote after the game is released, your vote is invalid and will be removed from the final count.


    Notice of this poll will be given in the threads of all nominated games.

    Additional games that spring up until the friday night cut-off will be added to the OP. Feel free to help out and list games I haven't added yet.

    You can see new games by looking at AppShopper.com and checking the "New" tab.

    Please change the thread title to reflect JUNE 6th. :D

    And my noms (and may be needed to be added on the list on the first post):

    Kinetic Damage
    Bridgy Jones
    Covenant of Solitude

    I also had a chance for a promo code for an early take on Leaping Legend and a great opportunity to play the pre-release final version of Spiral. Spiral is killing every game's time for me this week. It even takes away my KOTOR time, but i really want to finish my dark side playthrough of KOTOR before other games.

    I don't know why the latter has such an empty thread, this is the popular sequel to a very popular Steam game. Easy GotW for me. I guess they need to up their advertising a little.

    Respectfully the original post of these threads really should be formatted with links to the threads and videos, if avaliable. EchoSeven established and maintained an excellent protocol for this.

    The GOTW poll is a good opportunity for some developers to get more exposure even if they don't win plus it's a lot cooler to have a little compendium of releases this week. Often I browse the GOTW original post and have enjoyed the video links especially for easily overlooked indie games. Thanks to TheFrost for initiating the thread.

    Since Roundhouse has been pulled history suggests it not be eligible for GOTW until it is re-released for a duration. I don't think anyone but Metal Casket has had a change to play it anyway so it couldn't get fair consideration.

    Come on Quadropus Rampage...

    Undeadcow, calm down... I was really waiting for you do do this thread but the man himself asked to do this, and I cant say no to him. Also, anyone who votes for a game already knows the thread and the icon (I hope so), and the way I put it really helps me with counting votes. Relax a bit. :)

    Edit:
    Just to keep you happy, I copied the list in the Notes app and substituted it with your list, thanks! :)

    Also you could ask me about it...

    Edit: Spelling mistakes.

    No worries. Whatever is convenient. I was just trying to help and I really like the historical format with icons and thread/video links. :D

    Thank you for keeping things going.
    Thank you again, I suspect I might not be the only one who likes the old, more detailed, format. I appreciate your GOTW stewardship and did not mean any disrespect. Cheers!

    You mean "I don't think anyone but Sanuku has had a change to play it anyway so it couldn't get fair consideration". :p Stupid lite version.

    Anyways, yeah...it shouldn't be on this week's list.

    Same for Leaping Legends, agreed but both of them aren't on any list so far.

    Edit: Added a little something on the bottom of the main post :)
