Explanation of 'months on the top30': it refers to consecutive issues: If a game fall off the list, it starts back at 1 month if it gets back on the list. Voting for next issue will be held sometime in March '02, on the main Ohrrpgce message board at Zantetsuken.com, and last for about 15 days.

Number of games that are new to the top 30 (grey numbers indicate): Nine

Number of  games that have been in the top 30 every single month since Ohrrpgce Issue # 1 (white numbers indicate): twelve (Destiny Calls didn't make the top 30 this month and so this number is reduced by one from last month)

Number of games on the Top30 made (in full or in part) by Moogle1: Four

Number of games on the Top30 made (in full or in part) by Rinku: Five

	1 197 points 6 months		Fantasy Under a Blue Moon X: The new release of FUABMX shot the game up from 14th place to first, with the largest landslide victory in the history of Ohrrpgce Monthly.
	2 104 points 6 months		Wingedmene: Part One Wingedmene rises in the top30 for the sixth consecutive month. Not much more room to rise.
	3 102 points 6 months		Lolsidothaldremobine At the last minute a vote by Harlock Hero usurped Lolsidothaldremobine from second place to third. But even third place is very good for a game that hasn't been updated in a year or so.
	4 93 points 6 months		Origin And here we have a game that hasn't been updated in -three- years or so.
	5 87 points 6 months		Wandering Hamster When the hamster wield the hammer, take my advice, you better run before you're sadfully dead.
	6 81 points 3 months		Arfenhouse!!!1 #!!!!1 Holding strongly at 6th place, the Pringles waits and watches.
	7 79 points 6 months		Ends of the Earth 2 Kingdoms come and kingdoms go, but centaurs never seem to die.
	8 64 points 2 months		The Adventures of  Powerstick Man When men with mullets serve justice, ask for a new hero.
	9 69 points 6 months		Memoria Like the name says, still a memorable game, even two years after its release.
	9 63 points x months		Evildead: Timeline: Take 2 Tied for ninth, the Ohrrpgce's most famous fan game lies corpse-like.
	11 47 points 6 months		Beyond Destiny From the name 'Beyond Destiny', one might expect the game to be anti-deterministic, having a message of free will over fate. However, there is not enough in the game to evaluate if this is the case or no.
	11 47 points 6 months		Monterey Penguin Tied for 11th, Penguin now has double the number of 1's in its ranking.
	13 44 points 2 months		Walthros When you have a fish to fry, make sure it won't fry you back.
	13 44 points 1 month		The Last Job Charbile's 48 hour contest foray into the up and coming world of the 'short-story-rpg' genre, seen in the commerical gaming world in games like ICO, takes 13th place, quite the feat.
	15 39 points 1 month		Babel Babel is one of the better new Ohrrpgce games to be released in awhile.
	16 37 points x months		Scary Game Halloween is coming up... and Scary Game rises to the occasion.
	17 33 points 1 months		Scars of Glory Scars of Glory is one of the most amazing games made in 48 hours in the history of the world.
	18 30 points 2 months		SHEEP RANCHER "Are you a sheep or a wulff??" This game may not have the answer to that question, but they do have the answer to the question "What is Sheep Rancher?"
	19 28 points 5 months		& My first 48 hour contest game. Best play'd by they who don't feel that level-gaining is an obsolete game play mechanic.
	20 26 points 1 month		Harlock and Rinku's Game Which Includes the Game 'Bill's Never Go West' A 48 hour contest entry. With five endings, this game can be described as a test of the player's heroism. Hint: never go west.
	21 23 points 6 month		Ergintandal 1/5 Name change. Demo is scheduled for release in less than one year. See design article for more graphics screenshots from this game.
	22 21 points 1 month		I Made Dis Batman, Superman, and Elvis all make appearances in this 48 hour contest game.
	23 20 points 6 months		Paladus The paladus is in Paladus! (Okay, that was stupid. But I'm pressed for time.)
	24 17 points 1 months		Siv: The Journey of an Egg An unreleased sidescroller for the 168 hour contest game. Note the use of a new pastel like pallette here; it doesn't even look like an Ohrrpgce game.
	24 17 points 1 months		Ohrrpgce Tactics Another Moogle1 demo by Moogle1. Still unfinished.
	24 17 points 4 months		Tremor Whatever happened to this game's supposed 'final version'? The author vanished quite suddenly.
	24 17 points 1 month		Knight of the Ages The game which got second place in the 168 hour contest is, strangely, a single point higher than the game that got first place in the 168 hour contest.
	28 16 points 1 month		Neke 168 Hour contest entry designed by the makers of Genesis, Moon Pie: Crumbling Dreams, and The Fall of Insight Games.
	29 15 points 3 months		Time Flies This game features smiling monsters drawn by the creator of the Zantetsuken message boards and OHR buzz.
	30 14 points 6 months		Ends of the Earth I should be releasing the unreleased feature of this game next issue... although I need to rewrite parts of it.
