e-in nominee!&nbsp; Despite being on the ballot for less than 2 days, Littl=
e Town got enough votes to make the final round.&nbsp; How cool is that?&nb=
sp; Many thanks to Mark Johnson, who suggested the game and to Wei-Hwa for =
coaxing the voting app=E2=80=99s code to make the game available (this is t=
he first time we=E2=80=99ve tried to introduce a game in the middle of an e=
lection).&nbsp; Little Town is also a perfect example of a game that deserv=
es consideration this year, despite being originally introduced (only in Ja=
pan) two years ago.&nbsp; For many years, Clay Blankenship tried to convinc=
e me to relax the eligibility requirements to include designs like this and=
 I was finally able to see the wisdom of his suggestion recently.&nbsp; Tha=
