Month 41, August 2016 - Nomination Stage​

Rules:
- You may nominate one metagame. If a metagame has already been nominated, do not nominate it again.
- You must make your nomination bold. I'm mostly bringing back this rule to more easily weed out people who are not reading the op.
- If you want to change your nomination, you need to delete your post containing the old nomination and post a new one with the changed nom.
- Do not nominate metagames from the blacklist (below), or those whose thread has been locked/placed in archive.
- Do not try to influence other voters and do not bash any metagame.
- You are not allowed to make any posts except to nominate, and your account must be at least one week old by the time of your post.
- If another user breaks these rules, let us take care of it.

If any of the above rules are broken, your post will be deleted. Continued rule breaking will result in an infraction.

A list of all the metagames can be found in the Index.

Slayer95 may choose to reject a metagame if it has not been coded and is deemed too difficult.
