Spokane used to be really good at reporting topics like this to lock or put in the right place. Not seen him in a while. Also been a while I been a mod. Just know you can report the topic and reporting does not always mean someone in trouble. Just Mods can't be everywhere at once unless they have nothing better to do than read everything..... and be there all day...wait.....shit...erm......

Probably because millions and millions of people do use Facebook. I'm not a fan of the site myself but for networking and publicity you can't argue with its importance.

Meanwhile there's probably someone out there asking, "Why are these things always on the Internet? Where can I mail my write-in vote?"

Why are these things always on something that uses electricity? I want to use my scrolls.

Magazine editor comments on the poll:
Asked the @OXMUK Facebook group what should feature in the Durango reveal. Top of the list: Shenmue 3. Never stop believing.

Nearly 2000 votes now, almost doubling TimeSplitters 4.

I posted it in the shenmue 1 forums because it's used for general shenmue purposes and gets the most traffic, not many people visit the shenmue 3 forums anymore

Is this main page material? Not being cynical just curious. If so why is it not there?

There's an impenetrable forcefield surrounding the front page editing suite, sadly. At least I assume that's why the monthly Tweetathon has yet to be mentioned on there, a year into the campaign. :-"

I wonder if it will get some recognition now. I want the results printed and handed to all Microsoft managers. Ah, and it must appear in the printed magazine!!

They won't do anything with it. They'll write it off as a few eccentrics skewing a poll that was only ever intended for generating activity on their Facebook page. Whether this is the correct view to take is another matter, but they really will just roll their eyes and shrug their shoulders.

The benefit that we can take from this poll, like any other, is that it's another recent example which WE can point to of Shenmue 3 being in high demand. Combined with other evidence, it's useful data for us in supporting our argument. It's further proof that gamers still care, even if the magazine hosting the poll chooses not to take it seriously.

I still think having a big charity fundraiser in the name of "shenmue 3" is a good idea. It's not like we have an awful lot else going on for us right now, aside from the monthly tweetathon, and waiting patiently to see if those cryptic murmurings and hopeful rumours of Shenmue HD come true.

When the idea first came up, the supposed bombshell of Shenmue HD had just been dropped by Ben Harborne, and we were concerned that too many fans would be deliriously content with their assumptions of forthcoming remakes to bother donating.

Now a year later, it could be time to give it further consideration. More and more people are losing patience with the HD rumors. Fan groups have become much better at collaborating on promotion, too. Collectively we've accomplished every short-term challenge in the past few months that we've taken on.

But this would be the biggest by far.
