That’s would be too bad. I used to get referral urls that had the search criteria embedded in them. It was nice to know.

I might be mistaken then. I haven’t paid close attention to analytics, but I’m not aware of any changes.

Yes, I’ve had a bump here and there,

If you had a bump on the last week, compared to the past few weeks, then it means it works as intended. I’m not sure about all the lists where the game is bumped, but I wouldn’t worry too much about it.

Thanks for trying to help me out with this, DD.

If you had a bump on the last week, compared to the past few weeks, then it means it works as intended. I’m not sure about all the lists where the game is bumped, but I wouldn’t worry too much about it.

Like I said, it was unlisted for months previous to that, so I have nothing to compare to.

And I mean, no, I'm going to worry about this.  Like, if I can only get on the "Last X Days" on the first release, then I'll wait until a later stage of development to post my next game so I can take full advantage of that. I don't think that's "gaming the system", it's just trying to make a smart choice.  

Idk, I feel like I'm asking reasonable, straightforward, yes/no questions that somebody should know the answer to.  Maybe I'm wrong,  but I don't think the information I'm asking for can be used to game the system.  So I feel kinda like this is less a matter of users gaming the system and more about the system gaming the users.  Which is fine, I guess.  It's their system.
