Introducing... The Atomic Hot 100

We're getting very close to one hundred printed issues of the magazine, and we want to find out what your fave tech, mag and forums moments are!

100 issues.

Excuse me while I bask in that number just there... yeah, it's pretty satisfying. But the truth is we wouldn't have been able to make it without the help of each and every one of our readers - and there's just one more thing we want to ask of you to make our 100th issue a special event.

The Atomic Hot 100 is a poll of the very best of Atomic - the best hardware, the best games, the best people. We want to know what's the best of the best in the heart of an Atomican, and this is your chance... our chance to find out.

If you want to be a part of this, just click here and you'll be - like some kind of MAGIC! - whisked away.

We've got some great Atomic prizes to give away, and we're cooking up a few special plans for those who take part which we'll announce over the next week or two, but for now, what you really need to know is that the results of this poll will be published as a special feature in issue 100, alongside the best comments of the Atomicans who voted in it.

So, really, this is a chance for you to be a part of something very special.

So vote now!

No. 5 is a bit ambiguous. I call all forums goers Atomicans. Is this for them also, or just magazine contributors?

Actually, that's exactly what Number 5 is all about :) Forum goers, guy you met at a Atomic Live event... the sky's the limit.

Question 9, Best Atomic Writer is the one for the Ashtons and Gillolloolloolies of the world.

Yarhar...got it. Didn't realise there was a mag specific question on the next page (which is good cause I'd already gone with my gut and picked a non-mag contributor). :P

I has voted. And I've realised how long I've been on the forums. And how much I remember from back then.

Ahhh the memories.

I'm really hoping we can get some good old stuff up there, and it's people like yourself, Morris, that are going to help make this poll something neat.

And speaking of which, this is a request for everyone. If you know someone who used to read the mag, or hang out on the forums, ask them to enter the poll. They're a part of this too :)

A lot of the old stuff I remember pre-dates Issue 50 though, and a number of them were listed in that issue. There is still a lot of atomic history to cover though. Just hoping that all the oldtimers don't keep quoting things that were already listed 50 issues ago.

Well, if that's the good stuff... but I'm sure there's equally good stuff since then :)

There has definitely been a lot of gold since issue 50. Which is why you don't want the old farts like me that think about what it was like back around issue 20, and more the forum regulars that came afterwards.

I wonder how many of the newer people remember Mael, Man_Of_Few_Words, loonybird, Hex or even GRiMEY or Bennet Ring. Just a few names off the top of my head.
