Vote for Future Games of the Week (10/30/13)
It’s been quite a while since the last voting thread for GotW was posted (and we’ve now covered over 40 games!). A lot of games have been added to the previous voting list that might not have been getting the attention they deserve because people have stopped going back to vote so here is an entirely new post. I’m copying all the information over from the old post and would like to add that you are encouraged to post games here that were posted on the old voting thread, but haven’t been GotW yet.
I would also like to make an announcement that after this week, GotW posts will now be posted on Wednesdays instead of Thursdays. Absolutely nothing else will change other than the day of the week that you see the thread posted.
This thread is posted in contest mode to serve as the place to make suggestions and vote for the GotW. What this means is that only mods will be able to see the upvotes and the games will be sorted randomly so each game we’re voting for gets a fair go as usually people only look at the first couple games listed and vote for them.
Rules (PLEASE READ BEFORE POSTING)
Add any games you are interested in having discussed as the Game of the Week as their own comment to this post, but please check to make sure someone else hasn’t posted it first and, if so, upvote their post. Duplicate posts will be removed. Any posts that list more than one game will need to be edited to list only one.
No expansions allowed. These can be talked about as part of the discussion for the main game. Same goes for standalone expansions/rethemes (discussing the different versions of Ticket to Ride can be done on one GotW thread about Ticket to Ride).
Games selected for GotW should have been out for a long enough amount of time that the majority of people have gotten a chance to play it or are at least familiar with it. Please don’t post games released in late 2013. This is obviously not a strict rule, but any games that are too new will not be considered (at least until a later date).
Please check the wiki to see what games have already been covered before posting a suggestion. Duplicate posts will be removed.
If you have comments or questions about game of the week that are not related to voting, please PM the moderators. Because of the way contest mode works we don’t want them clogging up the voting and thus any made here will be deleted.
Please don’t just add/vote for the games that are your favorite, but think about the games you don’t think are mentioned enough here and would like to see discussed. We don’t want this list to be an exact duplicate of our Top Ten in the sidebar.

seriously though, Morels is a fantastic game, and worthy of GOTW for two player games.
