I think because of the lack of entries, we should have a GOTETW: Game of the Every Two Weeks. *nudges admins* eh?
"Actually sir, we found a tiny unicorn in your exhaust. It was jumping around poking holes in your gas tank." "Oh thank you I did not know that. A tiny unicorn? Wow."
I bug them about making a GOTM every time Circ makes a post about someone else doing a GOTW . Hey, GOTM solves ONE problem - the fact that GOT* would only have to be updated once a month. That, and it balances out the games a lot better. I've lost almost all respect for GOTW as on some weeks a really crappy game would win, while the week before, there'd be 2 superb games, one forgotten to time. Eg. Snowbattle vs Darren Baker's One Step From Reality.
Editor's choice would mean nothing as the admins choice always make it into the news (archive) and GOTW nominees. Only difference would be that the editors in charge of choosing the choices would get hate mail from noobs who didn't make it in.

So tough shit. That probably happens anyway.
Perhaps have an option of suggesting a game to be GOTM. Then have a group of slected members who play, say the top 10 ten suggested games and then they vote which game should be awarded GOTM.
