AKA Devfinitive Edition (Gary Power): vote, because this software label was simply him and nobody else but him!

One for the text adventurers of course...

1. Dollars In The Dust
2. The Crystal Of Chantie
3. Terraform

While The Crystal Of Chantie is the most technically impressive of the three, after all it is written using GAC, I enjoyed Dollars In The Dust the most. Dollars is a western themed adventure which has various bandits roaming around, which you can kill for bounty by having a shoot out with them. You can even practice your shoot out skills before you start the game.

Terraform is by far the weakest of the offerings, written mainly in BASIC, it is slow and has quite a limited vocabulary.

The Crystal Of Chantie, The (G.A.C. version) has won this, with four votes.

In second place, one vote went to Dollars In The Dust.

Only one proportional voter means my work in compiling the proportional results is easy, albeit not exactly reflective of the five voters in the phpBB poll:
