EUIII OscAARs 2012: Nominations​

Time for the OscAARs once more. I have a staggering number of completed AARs waiting to be read and nominated. If I counted them correctly there should be 23! That's two more then last year. Not bad for a game that is supposed to be at it's end. Luckily you all have a whole month to decide on which one of them you want to nominate or second.
Remember: only 1 nomination per person.

The five AARs with the most nominations will carry over to the voting thread. Nominations end on April 30th.

[ATBKING]

The Historic Inevitabilty of Epic Failure by PrawnStar

[buddharebellion]

knul - Double Domination

 

[MrQwerty]

Aww. There's more than one I like on that list, and I wish I could nominate them.

But, I did have fun following Avindian's "A Descent into Madness", so I will choose that.

 

[InvisibleSandwi]

I'll vote for Ashantai's The Grey Eminence.

 

[Ashantai]

Thanks for the nomination.

I nominate: The Queen Mother's Diaries: A Ming AAR by loki100

 

[Range]

I place my nomination for Ashantai's "Grey Eminence."

 

[loki100]

I'd like to nominate the Grey Eminence, it worked at every level, as an excellent History Book treatment and as a parallel narrative (that in turn dealt with some complex and dark themes) but was always easy to follow.

 

[Qorten]

So far:

5 nominations for The Historic Inevitabilty of Epic Failure
3 nominations for The Grey Eminence
2 nominations for Double Domination
2 nominations for The Queen Mother's Diaries: A Ming AAR
1 nomination for A Descent into Madness
1 nomination for Pink India - A Cochin Meiou AAR
1 nomination for Gesta Danorum - Deeds of the Danes

 

[Ashantai]

How many nominations does an AAR need to be in the ballot? I don't think it says above....

 

[EtzelHoveri]

A Descent into Madness

I couldn't decide between either of avindians. Flipped a coin.

 

[Qorten]

How many nominations does an AAR need to be in the ballot? I don't think it says above....

It has to be among the 5 AARs which received the most nominations. No fixed number to qualify needed (apart from at least 1, of course).
