Ok.
http://www.escapistm...BioWare?page=47

Warcraft III is tied for my favorite game of all time.
Diablo II is in my top seven.

I still voted fo BIoware. I love Blizzard, don't get me wrong, though having released only one game in the past seven years? Bioware
works hard to bring us new games at a constant pace and have done so
for the last decade. If you truly love the game, whether it be Baldur's
Gate, Neverwinter Nights, KotOR, Mass Effect, Dragon Age, or Jade
Empire, lets show our support for Bioware. If you have a twitter,
retweet it and your vote counts twice.

We sit here all day
posting. Whether you're on the Tali thread, the Miranda thread,
Morrigan thread, Alistair thread, or even rooting for nasty old Ugly
Shepard, we all need to band together andshow the developer who has consistently brought us great games some love.

C'mon people, it takes two minutes. Do it for BioWare.

I voted for them in Round 5, but I plan on voting AGAINST them in Round 6 if they beat Blizzard.

Bioware really mucked up with this Contest and they only held the Bazaar to give THEMSELVES an unfair advantage in the Escapist contest.

Hypocrites.

Illusive Man: Commander Shepard.

Shepard: Illusive Man, I thought we'd be meeting face to face.

Illusive Man: A necessary precaution. Not unusual for people who know what you and I know.

[Paragon]
Shepard: You might be the reason I'm unbanned, but that doesn't mean I trust you.

Illusive Man: You need to put your personal feelings aside.

Illusive Man: Bioware is up against the greatest threat of our brief existence.

Shepard: Blizzard.

Illusive Man: Good to see your memory's intact. How are you feeling?

[Renegade]
Shepard: I noticed a few upgrades. I hope you didn't replace anything really important.

Illusive Man: We tried to keep your PC as intact as possible. We need Shepard -- just as you were when Bioware
defeated Relic.

Shepard: What is Blizzard doing that made you decide to bring me back?

Illusive Man: We're at war. No one wants to admit it, but Bioware is under attack.

Illusive Man: While  you've been trolling, entire colonies have been voting for Blizzard. Human colonies.

Illusive Man: We believe it's someone working for Blizzard. Just as the Space Marines aided Relic.

Illusive Man: You've seen it yourself. Your vote bested all of them. That's just one reason we chose you.

[Renegade] Shepard: If you're after  Blizzard, just point me at the poll.

Illusive Man: Miranda was worried you'd be resistant. She's not usually wrong.

Illusive Man: I have a weblink ready to take you to The Escapist, the latest poll that's happening.

Illusive Man: Miranda and Jacob will vote with you.

[Paragon] Shepard: Is this a volunteer vote, or am I being volunteered?

Illusive Man: You always have a choice, Shepard. If you don't vote for the developer I'm voting for, we can part ways.

Illusive Man: But first go to The Escapist.

Illusive Man: Find any clues you can. Who's convincing the colonies? Do they have any connection to Blizzard?

Illusive Man: I unbanned you. It's up to you to do the rest.

So.......a developer holds a contest where you can get a lot cool ****. You don't agree with that.

So that one contest was horrible enough to outweigh everything they've done since they've been around?

The fact they held a social contest only to win another social contest outweighs everything they've done in 15 years.

Cheating is cheating.

Blizzard advertises on their website and launcher, Zynga offers rewards to player who go and Valve.. well, Valve is Valve.

I voted yesterday. It's still a very close race. I think BioWare's lead is slipping from last night. It's within 400ish votes now.

Right, so their contest where they're giving away free PC's, lithographs, and other cool stuff to us  is cheating? 

The BioWare Bazaar was a countdown clock that got the attention everywhere. It wasn't just the escapist who covered it, nor was it made for that intention. This coundown clock was made last week, before round four even started. Do you naturally just talk out of your ass?

*Waits for the Steam message to pop up saying to vote for Valve*.

It's hovering just at 400. Last night there was a 700+ lead though. Blahhhh. I'm hoping it was just all those midnight WoW'ers and that everyone else is here. The voting ends today, I believe. I hope BioWare wins and that Valve can pull it out.

Why is Zynga even an option, exactly?

Because there needs to be subpar dev in the contest.

Apparently Farmville is actually a game that should be taken seriously.

True that. I have a very bad gut feeling right now though that the stupid facebook app company is going to win. All that they have to do is advertise this crap on facebook and the millions of people that play silly flash games will go vote with their facebook accounts. It would be horribly insulting, considering how much of a larger scope every other dev company in the competition represents.

I mean why the hell are they even mentioned? Those aren't interesting, intriguing and technically demanding creations. A lone programmer can flash animate and create those damned things...

Ugghg, the last time my WoW loving co-worker told me to check it out because of how "fun" it was but he wouldn't check out a game like Mass Effect, I just wanted to slap the crap out of him.<_<

Come on people! We need more voters!!

I didn't know about it? I just barely had a chance to really use my computer today. Besides this is more of a personal message to the people.
