Hey gang.
I got an internet connection in my new apartment, freaking finally. With that, I'm ready to get Game of the Week going again!
----------------------------

-------------------------
So, the rule was that everyone was allowed one submission of any game they like (price/completion time/language barrier being the only exclusionary factors), and when we had gone through everyone's submissions and there were no more to come, we would have a reset and everyone could submit again.
Well, over the last couple of months, submissions were slowing to a trickle. I think using this occasion to do a reset will work out well.
Everyone may now submit another game.
However, please do not submit a game that has already come up for GOTW in the past. I don't want to allow repeats until we've gone through most of the possible candidates, and I think we're a ways away from that.
I'll now copy/paste the list of games that have been done so far, and the general GOTW rules. As people make submissions, I will list them in the order of submission and that's what we'll go with.
Johnnykonami submitted Bonk 2 previously and we weren't able to get to it, so if he's all right with this, Bonk 2 is what we'll start with next week. I might give him an extra submission after many others have had a chance.
One more thing: I will not accept your submission if you post more than one game or if you're being vague, like you're pondering whether a game is a good idea. You should post something like "I would like [one game] to be my submission for GOTW. " Bear in mind that you do not need anyone's approval for your submission as long as it follows the rules.
So bring on the submissions!

-Each game may only be submitted once.
-If you wish to retract your submission, please do so at least two weeks before your game is due. Your next submission will go to the back of the cue.
-Please don't submit games that have a high language barrier or will take too long to complete (particularly RPGs).
