[UPDATED] Tempmas 2016 competition vote

merrytempmas_medium.jpg

UPDATE 07/01/2017:
After reviewing the current situation, the staff has unanimously decided to annull the public vote due to fraud and manipulation. A new staff vote will be carried out internally and released to the public after it is complete. We are disappointed at how this turned out and this will certainly limit our options in the future when it comes to public voting.

It's voting time!
Welcome back everyone, it's time to vote! I have compiled the list of entries below and watched them all as I did so, my my, I cannot believe how much work was put into this. Thanks to everyone who made references to my name in their videos but that won't get you my vote :D I am amazed at the amount of entries and the quality of them. It truly saddens me that we cannot offer gifts to each and every one of you. But sadly that's how competitions work. So let's do this!

Rules regarding voting

1) You must select 5 entries from the list below, and rank them from 1 to 5. Entry #1 will receive most points (5), entry #2 will get 4 points, entry #3 will get 3 points, entry #4 will get 2 points, entry #5 will get 1 point. An example is given in the first comment as I cast my own vote.
2) Anyone can vote. However, if you registered after the competition was announced, your vote won't be accounted for. This is intended to limit voting fraud. Hopefully this should prevent Russia from influencing the vote.
3) You can vote for your own entry. You cannot vote for an entry more than once. You must only cast one vote, with all 5 entries at once.
4) The vote will end 3 days from now, on January 6. Results will be announced shortly after.

Good luck everyone!

Tbh, there should be consolation prizes with these tons of effort made by our fellow Tempers. Like a 5$ E-shop card or another Switch, I suppose ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Hi all, it has been a long time since I posted here. I won a Tempmas prize two years ago and was unable to join last year and this year Tempmas because of stuff.
So... Although I just skipped and watch, I reviewed all videos since you guys put a considerable amount of effort for stuff.

Haha, same here, it was for a Sky3DS cart wasn't it? Good times, was exactly the time I was in recovery after I was injured so had nothing better to do.

My picks:

1. x65943

Good luck.

  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    They haslve dedicated on board chips that aren't tweaked like x64/x32 afaik
  • ColdBlitz @ ColdBlitz:
    but its a custom os for both of them
  • ColdBlitz @ ColdBlitz:
    designed for only specific hardware
  • ColdBlitz @ ColdBlitz:
    so you have to learn to emulate that specific hardware which isn't as easy as you'd think
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    It's a locked down Linux distro basically
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think the only custom hardware is to do with the SSD and a security chip
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Probably combined in one chip
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    They place married security chips onto boards iirc
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Damn Frontier is offering 5Gbps now lol
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I honestly can't recommend any of the big 3 this years I'd say buy a rog ally z1 if we're being honest
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Honestly after the PS3 and 360 I just went full PC
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Every games basically cross platform they only have about 6 titles making it worth the $600 price tag
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Didn't see much need for a console, all the advantages have kind of disappeared
  • ColdBlitz @ ColdBlitz:
    the ps3 used to support installing linux because the cpu was so powerful
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Then the games are $70 and they want to reboot and refresh the same game every year
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    The ps3 was always Linux they just found a way to make it open source
  • ColdBlitz @ ColdBlitz:
    I'm avoiding buying from the big 3 at all atm
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    At one point PC game pads where poorly supported, loading a game had setup, it was complicated. Now it's almost as easy as a console.
  • ColdBlitz @ ColdBlitz:
    nintendo needs to up their game soon
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Yeah even bt support for Xbox one controllers are just as easy as pairing
     +1
  • ColdBlitz @ ColdBlitz:
    considering the steamdeck can emulate the switch (yikes) theres almost 0 reason to buy the switch apart from playing online and using cartridges
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Xinput and 360 dongles were a driver nightmare
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I remember having to manually put in drivers and what not
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Yeah the 360 dongles sucked
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    But the new Xbox pads? PIr it up and if a game supports it it just works
