I believe it would be a sound idea, at some point, to present a 'revised
list' of games, that would include those which have received votes,
whether or not they were on the original list. If any that were on the
original list have not at that time received any votes, they may be
deleted. There was a prior mention that a list of this sort should be
held to 20 suggestions, but I don't understand why. Wouldn't it make more
sense to have an expanded list of popular games, and simply play (in the
tournament) the ones with the most votes at the end? Those games that
received at least some votes but not enough for the tournament threshold
could be played casually by the interested parties, via e-mail.
Also, in my view, the use of machines should be discouraged.
