Updated: Rating Queue System!

I'm excited to announce that we will be using the new "Rating Queue" system first seen in this year's GMTK! All raters will be given a random selection of three games to rate before they can rate anything else. After rating the three randomly assigned games, raters can then rate whichever games they choose.

This makes it a little harder to cheat, and helps get a wider assortment of games played, instead of the first most popular ones.

Thanks to Leaf @ itch.io for setting this up!

I also added into the rules the suggestion to rate 3 games, instead of the initial 2. 3 games is like 15-90 minutes over a week or more time. I think it should be the bare minimum!

Yeah, you need the approve of the moderators. I will assume the moderators take it down. @AKRATICHUMAN. Do you start the new account in RPG Maker Web? Just make sure so I do not excessively search you in the forum. 

Another question: how do you prevent the game creator from voting for them?

Sorry I missed this Kup. I did just start in account in RMWeb. 

Also, I don't think game creators can vote for their own submissions. Doesn't stop fake accounts from being created, but the Rating Queue system makes it at least a bit annoying.

Great idea, thank you. I hope everything will go well. It is my first jam that why I am really excited. You see right people submit 2 entries, right now. How can people did the game so quick like that? The last short game took me one week. It is mysteriously to me.

One of the projects was made too early so I had to remove it. The other was very short and only took a few hours to develop (I know the dev).

Thank you for your explaining.
