    The winners of last week's Game of the Week poll are in!

    First Place: Asphalt 8: Airborne (67 votes)
    Second Place: Jack 'N Jill (9 votes)
    Third Place: Dream House Days (6 votes)

    Last week's thread:
    http://forums.toucharcade.com/showthread.php?t=201481


    The first part is nomination where every member can vote up to 5 games to be included in the poll. Releases active before Saturday are eligible, weekend releases can be nominated the following poll. 10 games with the most nominations will then be added to the poll on Sunday. Poll will remain open until next Wednesday and whichever game has the max votes, will be Touch Arcade forum's Game of the Week.

    Please note:
    1) Developers, publishing partners, or affiliates 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.
    3) Suspect votes may be void.

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

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

    If updates are counted i wouldve nominated Cloud Spin, The Room, Combo Crew, Ski Safari and Time Surfer.

    I guess my noms will go to:

    Soul Grinder
    Joining Hands 2
    Max Steel

    Been playing Junk Jack X, but it hasnt captured me yet to earn its place in my noms list. Most other games i enjoyed this week are either in beta, or in soft release or those that have been recently updated.

    Think I'll just abstain this week. Only thing I got was Max Steel, which isn't bad but hasn't gotten much playtime from me.

    Let the battle of the crafting games do it's thing (not into that genre).

    If a title isn't avaliable internationally due to soft launch it's not eligible for game of the week until it received a worldwide release; that allows everyone a chance to play it and ensures fair voting.

    Funny how it went to "nothing much coming out this week" to "ZOMG how am I going to get any work done?!?"

    All I hope for is the sun to hold out this afternoon long enough that I can get all of this weekend's yard work done tonight so I can have more time to play over the long weekend...

    JJX (I didn't pick it up yet, but I feel it deserves a nom because of the hard work the devs put in.

    Terraria would get my vote over just about any other game. It's just awesome.

    Why does the forum force the letters to lowercase? I capitalize and when I save they get changed...

    Edit: weird now it lets me.
