I only know a couple of the games on the list, so looked them up on BGG to see if I could get any idea of which I might want to vote for. I put together this list of some BGG stats to help me pick my votes. Thought I would share if anyone else was curious.
It was helpful in that I probably would have just discounted a game like Fort Sumter just by the name of the game, except that a 1.8 complexity suggests that it might be easy to pick up and compete in. Whereas I have always wanted to try Root, and thought this might be a good time to commit to it, but at the highest complexity rating, perhaps not something I want now. But it is popular, so there is that too to consider if I am going to invest in new games. Anyway, hope this helps anyone.
