Default Vote Dom3 as Strategy Game of the year on Gamespot

Gamespot is making a "Game of the Year" poll for strategy games:
http://www.gamespot.com/special_feat...x.html?page=11

Out of curiousness i typed in "Dominions" and got an option to vote for Dominions 3. The vote is not processed until logged in with an Gamespot account. (login and register fields are in the upper right corner of the web site.)
So far Dom3 has 1 vote and ~0% of all votes.

Edit: also vote for best multiplayer game:

Vote! Registration is free.

And while you are there check out the Gamespot review of Dominions 3 -- they gave it an 8.2 "Great"!

It's nice they reviewed it, but it's not nice that it doesn't make their list. In a poll for best strategy game of the year they only list 5 titles? 25 titles to me seems like a minimum. It makes me wonder how much the producers of those 5 games had to pay Gamespot to get their titles in the running. I have a suspicious mind.

They probably chose the five games that got the best reviews from their site.

This category, and this goes for everyone doing '...of the year' awards, needs to be broken down into RTS and TB. Company of Heroes is going to crush everything and while it was a great game, its not my idea of strategy.

Well, if Dom3 doesn't win then their poll is rubbish since it's very clearly the best strategy game of the ENTIRE 21st CENTURY!

and the 20th, and maybe the 19th. When did Stratego come out? Stratego's a pretty find turn-based strategy game, IMHO
