Well, just so I can blame someone else for unpopular picks-of-the-month, the new poll on my blog is: what should be December's Pick of the Month? (http://ags-ssh.blogspot.com)
Obviously, the options I've given you won't include your favourite, so why not gripe about it here?
I did like Dr. Lutz very much and also Heartland, both had great graphics. But Damsel is the most hillarious game that I've played recently. Haven't played the other games on the list though.
Well since my games aren't on there I'll vote for Barn Runner 5! :=
Heartland Deluxe and Dr. Lutz are both worthy as well, though.
all good games, but Damsel just deserves all the recognation it can get. Although I think it might run off with the award for best voice acting or something at the end of this year.
Oh, I can't decide! I liked Odot Tamat On a lot, but I also liked Damsel and Dr Lutz.
...
Gah!
Edit: And thanks to the Heartland supporters. :)

Hrmm.. I think I may need to play this before casting my vote.
Oh wow...thanks for all the support, guys! I read the list and went "Nooo! Why do I have to be competing with Barn Runner 5?" :)
I swear, Ponch and I totally need to write a game together.

Because we're both Texans? We have to fight with somebody, right? So might as well face off against each other! Yee haw! Six shooters! And what have you!

I don't think I've ever heard a Texan with a battle cry of "What have you!" Maybe "I'm jes' fixin' t' whoop yer a**, ya Kansas City pansies!"
(Teeeeechnically I'm still a Syracuse, New Yorker at heart...just an unfortunate transplant to the Belt Buckle State.)
This feels like shooting myself in the foot, but I just think the Barn Runner 5 games are way funnier than Damsel...my humor was all tongue-in-cheek fancy wordage with occasional bursts of violence, whereas y'all's was clever and wacky throughout...plus, y'know...half-naked women. But then, I consider humor to be the most important part of any game I like, so the graphics, voice acting and so on don't enter into my consideration as much.
*goes back to writing dialogues for an alcoholic brine shrimp in Q2EAQ*
(And yet, I will send a bottle of Vodka and a 2-lb bag of Twizzlers to every person who votes for our game. Ich bin ein Damseller!)
I'm an Arizonan, so neither of you yellow-bellied, possum-suckin', knock-kneed, lily-livered polecats stand a chance against me!
DRAW!

Worst case scenario- three game-makers shooting themselves into the foot ;)
I also voted for Damsel, but I'm German, so you're only allowed to throw cake into my face.

Exactly the same goes for me, with the slight difference of my final words being "Ich bin ein Hamburger".

Frankly I haven't played any of those yet. I suppose I'll play whichever one becomes POTM first :)

I'm in El Paso (which is now New New Mexico), so I'm clearly the one in the sombrero! Not sure that I would be caught dead with pink pistols, but I totally dig the hat, man!
And Strange Visitor has a good point: Barn Runner 5-2 if practically overflowing with half nekkid womens! That alone should ensure it's place as game of the month (if not game of the year!)

Oooh, that does it. I am *so* going to slut Damsel up in her sequel. And her first peril will be escaping from a bedroom full of hot nymphomaniac Cirque du Soleil girls.
Cause...you know...contortionists.
Damsel or Barn Runner 5(part 1, haven;t finished part 2)..

THAT is the AGS game I've been waiting for. See, what I do is just cheesecake. But when you bring Cirque du Soleil into it, it becomes art!

My vote goes to This Game. The opening screen suggests it isn't going to be much of a game, but looks can be deceptive...
