For GMTK Jam this year (2020) we’re we’re introducing a new system to make the distribution of ratings more fair, and to help block and detect cheaters.
I’ve created this thread so you can give feedback or report any bugs with the new system.
Here’s how it works:
- If you are the submission uploader, then you can rate other entries freely and nothing changes for you.
- Everyone else, including contributors, must use the rating queue.
- The rating queue has 5 submission in it at any time. Everyone’s queue is different, and randomly selected.
- You can only rate submissions that are currently in the queue. In order to access new submissions you must clear an item from your queue.
- You can clear a submission in two ways: Rate the submission or Report the submission
- Please only report submissions if they are invalid in some way. If you are unable to play a submission because it doesn’t work for your platform please do not report it
- After you’ve rated 25 entries in total, you’ll be able to rate things without having to go through the queue.
