As promised you will find the Console Games List announcement below...
=== Internet Console Games Top 100 === by Brad Lascelle ===
Although many of you may be gaming afficionados in the realm of computer
gaming, there's another field of electronic entertainment that this list
doesn't touch on. Console gaming has thrived as a booming industry since
the debut of the Nintendo Entertainment System in 1984. And, since that
time dozens of new systems and thousands of new games have hit the market,
each striving for success in a competitive marketplace. To sort through
this clutter, the Top 100 Console Games List has been established to help
you make the best investments and get the most bang out of your
hard-earned dollars. The list will be updated on a weekly basis, with the
first edition arriving on the Net on January 2nd, 1995. To vote for the
game of your choice, send a message to bradley.lascelle@canrem.com with
your completed ballot. Each entry should have the format: points, title,
system, and publisher. You have a maximum of 20 points to distribute with
each week's ballot, with a limit of 5 points per game... just like the IBM
list. More information is available in Internet Console Games Top 100
document, and other assorted bulletins, in the following newsgroups:
rec.games.video alt.video.games.reviews
rec.games.video.misc alt.super.nes
rec.games.video.advocacy alt.sega.genesis

And here's the message many of you have been eagerly waiting for. The
results of the one and only Internet PC Games Contest...
=== WINNERS OF THE INTERNET PC GAMES CONTEST ===
Some winners are put together on the same position. This is because they
sent the same answers via different email addresses. They will not get
more free games than the others. In stead they will have to share them
amongst each other.

Please don't ask me for specifications about which of the questions you
got points for and which not. I only have it on paper and it is much too
time-consuming to have discussions about it. My time will now be spent
on making the winners choose from the extensive list of free games that
I posted earlier.
