You should probably add day 2 to the OP aswell as a new post. Same with the following days.

I've been thinking about it. I'm uncertain, though, if I want to because I can't remember if there's a post size limit, and this list will surely surpass the limit if there IS one. I plan to try it, though.

Also, I'd just like to point out that this list ultimately turned out very fanboy'd out. The order is out of wack, and that's entirely to blame on voters putting people they LIKED and not for their actual INFLUENCE.

I'm VERY disappointed in a large part of the results. This is why I wanted to delay the results for more votes. If we'd have gotten more objective votes (say, you know, STAFFERS?), we could've weeded out some of those ridiculous standings.

 

But what can you do? Stay tuned to see what we DID decide.

Out of interest, what do you disagree with so far?

 So far, I think Kaz Hirai, Bill Gates, and Peter Moore all should be significantly higher. Gabe Newell deserves slightly higher. As much as I like his work, I don't think Goichi Suda belongs on the list at all. Nobuo Uematsu deserves higher as well, and lastly, Warren Spector shouldn't come anywhere NEAR Peter Moore or Kaz Hirai, much less ABOVE them. Essentially, I think it's all bullocks so far, haha.

 

@puffy - The Top Five is the only part of the thread that I'm NOT mostly disappointed with, hahaha.

I'm considering doing my own writeup with my OWN top list, after this is all said and done.
