    Note that you can submit multiple votes, so this doesn't preclude you from voting for your other favorite roguelikes

        ToME puts a voting nag in-game, so it's a pretty pointless poll IMO.

            My vote will go to PosChengband as this variant had me playing repeatedly like none other.
            My best try at PosChengband 7.0.0's nightmare-mode on Angband.live:

            If I'm offline I'm probably in the middle of maintaining Gentoo or something-Linux or other.

                  *looks for Dwarf Fortress and MAngband, somehow doesn't find either*

                  Hmm. DoomRL it is, then.

                    Only roguelikes that have had an update on roguebasin the last 12 months are counted for the poll. This discards a ton of *band variants...

                      I think he specifically mentioned leaving out Dwarf Fortress on purpose (can't remember the reason, but I believe it was intentional and not a accidental omission).

                        Dwarf Fortress hasn't been updated in over a year.

                          And it is not really a roguelike.

                            It hasn't had a public release, no, but it's most certainly being updated, almost on a daily basis.

                            As for whether it's roguelike or not, I suppose it deviates from the form enough that that's a legitimate question, but certainly it derives heavily from, and resembles in many ways, that genre.

                              I think if Risk of Rain, Rogue Legacy, Teleglitch and Spelunky HD are roguelike enough to get on the poll, Dwarf Fortress should fine.

                              EDIT: Wow! ADOM + ADOM II has a huge amount of votes now. Combined it's only slightly behind ToME 4.
