- As expected, Ultima Underworld 2 has defeated its predecessor this
- week. The game climbs to number 2, but it still has to get a lot more
- points before it can hit number 1. Dune 2 is heading for the top 5
- now. Comanche stopped climbing and sticks to number 18. While we are
- all waiting for Lemmings 2, the original Lemmings suddenly makes a big
- leap to number 36, earning a bullet. Another strange move is made by
- Global Conquest, climbing from 77 to 63 after having dropped in the
- chart for several weeks. King's Quest 5 has lost nearly all its
- points, which makes this game fall very deep to 84.
-
- The profit from having a Tip 20 is evident when you look at Ultima 6,
- a not so new game entering at 91. Some people started to vote for it,
- which made it show up in the Tip 20. Then other people noticed this
- and started voting for it too, which made it the highest new entry
- this week.
-
- The column with the points shows the added result of the points sent
- by e-mail and the points calculated by checking Usenet News traffic.
- Since the e-mail points have a higher weight in the compilation
- process, we multiplied them with their weight, before adding the news
- points. This is done every week, but wasn't reflected in the columns
- of the previous charts, up till now. So don't be surprised to see much
- higher numbers than last week.
-
- As this is the last chart of February, we compiled a list of the games
- most voted for this month, like we did in January. You can see the
- result below, where the second column denotes the positions of the
- games last month. Note that the points are only those received by e-
- mail, not multiplied by any factor.
-
- BTW, the number of voters has risen again this week. Keep up the good
- work!
