@SBAllen
Thanks, as per always for the contest. Would you be willing to implement something like the very hastily constructed MSPaint image I'm embedding below for the main page? This allows people at least a slightly better overview of the years, using the data you gave us at the start of the contest, rather than whatever picture is first in the rotation. (BTW, rotating pics look great) --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

Thanks, as per always for the contest. Would you be willing to implement something like the very hastily constructed MSPaint image I'm embedding below for the main page? This is a great idea. I was quite disappointed when I found out that hovering over the match pictures does not reveal the notable games and system releases from their respective year, like we had during the Vote-In polls. In addition, I have heard of some reports of the rotating match pictures not working for some people. There is one known case of someone on Firefox 40.0 (a browser from August 2015) that does not get the rotating match picture. In the event the rotating match pictures do not work for some people, it's good to provide a fallback by listing the notable games and system releases when you hover over the match picture. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as DpObliVion, Guru Champ! ...

Yeah, this is pretty terrible as is. My pictures aren't rotating, so all I'm getting are the images that are seen in the image. Just a year and some poor graphic of one game represented. If I hadn't known from filling out my bracket, I just wouldn't be able to vote. I was actually shocked when I looked at the results and saw "Mario" wasn't winning, even though I was expecting 1989 to win before the start.

Think the proposed change would be worse, too much information in a small space for mobile. And the year summaries from the bracket were missing a lot of important games, unless it was updated at some point. One of the games in the pictures for 1989, Bomberman, isn't even listed in the summary for that year.
