[Voting System] ❌ 2019 Stagnant Game Removal - Deadline: 01/15/19

[Marstead]

I'm planning to remove stagnant games from the voting spreadsheet effective 01/15/19, if they don't receive the specified # votes by that time. 

All SP spent on voting for these games will be refunded. Please note SP spent winning auctions for these games will NOT be refunded.

This year, I am just looking at the number of days a game has been on the spreadsheet and multiplying that by 12 SP. 12 SP is the amount of SP generated from 1 hour of viewing by a regular, non-subscribing viewer. For example, if a game has been on the spreadsheet for 100 days, it needs to have (100 * 12) = 1200 SP spent on it to avoid being removed for stagnation.

I am only including games which currently risk being removed for stagnation. If a game is not on the list below, it is safe and will not be removed. I've provided the vote target necessary to reach the SP requirement. 

If these games have not reached the specified vote total by Midnight PST on 01/15/19, they will be removed from the sheet and all SP spent voting for them will be refunded. Auctions will be opened soon afterward for the vacated slots.

*****

👥 = Open Game Slot (An auction will be triggered to replace the game in this slot if the game is removed)

👑 = Marstead's Slot (Marstead will replace this with a different game)

⭐ = Subscriber Permanent Game Slot (Cannot be removed for stagnation, but called out here to point out that it is not receiving vote attention)

👑 Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle

*****

If you want to try to save one of these games but don't have enough SP, but you also expect the refund from one of the other stagnant games will be enough to reach the amount you need, shoot me a Discord DM. I can check the records to see if you have enough SP pending for a refund that you could use to save one of these games -- I'll simply transfer it over during the changeover for any viewers who request something like this.

Next January, I will probably use a similar metric to remove stagnant games, so you can plan your votes accordingly. As long as a game has about ~4500 SP spent on it per year (12/day or 84/week), it should be safe from stagnation removal.

My goal is to have all of these game removals, SP refunds, and slot auctions completed by end of day Sunday, 01/20/19. 

Thanks!
