When I click on the project page for the first game in my submission queue, I still can't rate it (and am told to check my rating queue)

I'm confused because I'm at the game page of the 1/5 in my queue, but it won't let me review it.

Great game! Stunning visuals and challenging game play! Kudos!

My queue is filled with Windows games but I am running Linux, making it impossible for me to clear my queue.

Same issue as @Kchortu and @gungancrab

Can't rate any of the games in my queue. each of my queue entries just says go to the queue, you can't vote for this one. How can I clear the queue if nothing in the queue works?

Two questions:
1. Can I filter my queue for browser only games? I have no intention of downloading & installing anything.
2. I've selected the one browser game in my queue and it won't let me rate it. Any idea what might cause this?

I cannot rate the games I'm asked to rate like many others here.

I cannot rate the games, I already have rated 26 but I still cant...

The jam host has told us that we’ll need to use the randomised queue if we didn’t “make a game” - does that mean be a game author, or the person who is hosting the game on their account? I need to use the randomised queue, but my partner doesn’t seem to - we’re not sure what’s going on!

Is there a way to skip games in the queue? My queue is full of Windows-only titles, but I don't have a computer running Windows.

I get why the queue is there but 25 titles is honestly so much that people who just wanna like rate their friends games will just give random or bad ratings.

I'd reduce the queue to like 5

hello, my friend cant view my link, it says that the page is not available

I only have mac, but my queue is filled with windows games! Is there a way to only get mac or browser games?

Could it be possible to see how many games we have left to rate before we can start playing games we want to play and rate those? half the ones i've had in my queue are unplayable or unfinished, i'd like to look for more complete ones to rate im just not sure how many ive already rated at this point

I have a mac but lots of windows-only games in my queue, preventing me from rating anything. There should be a filter just like there is for the randomizer.

Same issue as someone mentioned above- I'm on a Mac and my queue doesn't have any more browser/mac games in it. I'm mostly just finding random games from the twitter hashtag and playing them (not singling out friends games or anything), but I can't rate them which is annoying.

please add a skip, I hate having to leave straight one star ratings because I can't get a game to work (ether downloading or controls)

I've rated and reviewed over 25 games in my queue, on my account page it says I haven't rated any!

It would be very nice if we could rate game not in our play queue, with the understanding that the vote will not count yet. I stumble upon games randomly, and it is frustrating to not be able to make a note of what I thought of it at the time

Our lead submitted our game then tagged us as contributors yet we are still considered outside voters. Why?

Is there any way to see how many games you've rated? It would be nice to know this.

Great initiative but the games being linked are already highly rated

I have some general feedback. At first glance the system looks fair and unique, but it has a major positive feedback loop flaw (somebody here is watching Mark Brown!): once games are being highly rated, they have a higher chance to be rated again and again - because the raters can choose from a list of 5 games and probably just choose the most popular ones on the list (that's what I did). On the other hand, this snowball effect is important to find the needle in the haystack as the rating progresses.

I think it would make MUCH more sense to hide the rating information and only publish it in parts, maybe something like that:

• First 72 hours: don't show any data on the rating page, just give random games to raters.
• Next 24 hours: show a boolean indicating if the game was rated (>=1) or not.
• Next 24 hours: only show amount of ratings in gross scale (>5, >50 etc.)
• Next 48 hours: reveal all the information.

Another thing to consider: if you ask people to rate 25 random games first, you might as well block them from rating any arbitrary games ever (not even after 25 ratings). That might incentivize people to randomly rate games in order to get to the 26th rating (there's no way to enforce the raters to actually play!). I wonder how many of the raters just rate everything but one game with 1 star.

On a personal note: we made what I think is an amazing game, and we get great feedback from our friends and colleagues - but we get so little feedback from jammers and raters and it's really a pity for us. We learned a lot and had a hell lot of fun, that's for sure - I just wish the rating distribution would make more game makers notice our game and give us the honest feedback we need so much.

I have a Java Issue on my browser and my list is full of "play in browser" games, So I can no longer test other games.... Even if I clicked "Windows" game in my preference. Thanks...

Hello! i was just wondering if there was a more elegant way to check my queue other then going to a game in the submissions tab and clicking the "view your queue" button?  

can't rate a game. 

Can I see how many I have rated so far

Hi, I have an issue with rating, I made a game on a team and I have admin power, and Im added as contributor, double checked. However I cant rate games until i dont rate 25 games, supposedly I should be free to rate. Any solution i could use? Thanks in advance! 

My game: https://itch.io/jam/gmtk-2020/rate/694677

i get the reason behind its creation but surely there is a better way to handle it. i dont want to have to slog through  voting on 25 random games i will never play just so i can rate the one game i did play. maybe you have some sort of timer thing, or only established accounts that meet specific criteria can vote

It would be good if you can flag certain games that are broken / can't be played. If not, it ends up clogging the queue. If people flag randomly, that can be a checker for a spammer/fake account.

What's a "Game Jam"

For the OST composing jam that I'm participating, so far I could only rate one submission and my queue is empty after that:
https://itch.io/jam/ost-composing-jam-crunchtime/entries

You can't rate this submission yet

This jam requires you to clear your rating queue before you can rate any submission you want. Please check your queue to see what submissions you can rate.

HI! I can no longer see games to rate in my queue in the Shadowdark jam due to my inadvertently hitting the platform button. Please assist! Thanks.

Hi, as someone participating in my first game jam, I want to point out a problem with the preferred platform function. Since the game jam in question revolves around written material for a tabletop roleplaying game, the majority of the entries don't really fall under any platform due to simply being written documents and artwork. Thus, if someone curious tries to see what the preferred platforms option does, they basically lock themselves away from rating most of the entries.

Someone in the community posts ran into this problem and in an effort to help them I tried replicating it and sure enough, there seems to be no way to reset the preferences as far as I can tell.

Also I notice above there's mention of a 25 entry limit that could be reached to enable rating submissions without the queue. That doesn't seem to be the case.

Now, I realise this thread seems to refer to a specific game jam as opposed to the rating queue in general so I understand if this is the wrong place to voice these concerns. That said, I would appreciate if anyone could point me in the right direction.

Hi! I tried to set up a rating queue for my jam here https://itch.io/jam/velox-fabula and I'm getting reports that no one can see a queue. I sent in a support ticket, but figured I'd also post here in case it helps this get resolved faster (I'm trying to avoid some games getting an unfair amount of votes versus others). Any help is greatly appreciated!

Hello, I activated the rating queue on this jam: https://itch.io/jam/alternative-soundtrack-music-jam-5
Yet nobody was affected by the queue, as if it was not activated.
There are the settings: 


There may be a bug when the rating queue unlock size is superior to the number of entries?
Still, on an older jam I tried to leave a blank for the unlock size and it didn't worked either.

Have a good day.
