Something we should do with the favorites-
Instead of giving the admins the right to favorite games, it should be the people (like the admins just made it so you can do) BUT, once the game has a favorite by like 25 people, then the blue star comes (the recommended one) and once it gets to like 50 stars it becomes highly recommended. So all the power would be in the people or TDC.
Your just jealous that you're not as awesome as me.

The new Favourites feature works very well, in my opinion. Thanks Flava for adding it! If we could add a way of counting the favourites then we could have more accurate download charts.

Since some people say that a GOTW-runner up should be recommended, I'd like someone to spot those runner-ups for me. I get good games to play, you guys get games recommended, looks like a win-win solution to me
Anyway, looks like there might be a lot of spam if everyone posts all games at once. So, instead, just DC-mail me a list of any games you think should get a recommendation and I'll get back to you after I've looked at it Unless it's a platformer, I don't like platformers as much as the others, so maybe post those here instead.
To read this 6 pages into this thread is very disheartening. I'd encourage people not to send admins "recommendation-worthy" games for 2 reasons: 1) It further cements a flakey system, and 2) you can send a PM, but remember that the admins still have the final word on what is recommendation-worthy, not you. When your game sits at the top of the Downloads list for a week and receives nothing while the 60th place game gets HIGHLY recommended, you can't help but wonder what the hell is going on.
btw, Phizzy, you obviously have a problem with the current system too, and I know you can write seriously when you want to. It would be great if you could combine the two before posting here again.

Sorry if this is rude but that's the second time you've posted in this thread just to encourage its digression. It would be nice to hear your thoughts on the rating system, Rikus
Power to the people = Current rating system. The 5 star ones that you could vote on and sort it on? It's still the most powerful rating system, followed by the reviews.
The little recommendation stars are just like medals or something. There's no point in giving out a medal if it takes a mob to do it Just nominate people who deserve it, if it really deserves it, then it will obviously get one. Like that Jeff Pwns II Game, a lot of people like it. It would get a blue star if you really let people vote on it. But do you really want that to be the first game newcomers download? (No offense, Bibin )

Just so everyone knows, favourites for downloads have been reset to allow them to be counted and displayed on download pages, so readd any you might have favourited. Cheers.
Say um Clubsoft, was it intentional that theres (presumably) no limit to # of download favorites? I was testing to see if you just set it much higher than 5, but I ran out of patience.

The limit was removed as we figured that people should be able to have as many favourite games as they like.
