Having a 1 to 10 star rating on every game where we could vote would be awesome! Like a chart of top 100 in each section like nes snes gen etc. And even like a bottom 20... Im always looking for the worst video games ever made! Kinda like how imdb does it... but vgcollect is way better
Also, regarding submissions...When you submit, say a new game (name only) - do you get the same 'credit' for "1 submission" as the guy who fills in each & every field in their submission...or...is the *name* = the submission & the *rest* = edits?
Sorry, I didn't see that question.Ya 1 submission is 1 submission. But each individual field is an individual edit, when you edit something.

Yes, but since we notice this sort of thing when approving edits... we might just reject the edits and add them ourselves.
I could see if being a potential problem, if we started tracking who had the most edits/ submissions in a given month when we do the stats updates. But I think the thing is, we tend to trust everybody to not be complete assholes, ha.
Eh, as any of you who have processed my submissions know...they're all complete.I was just thinking that's an easy "loop-hole" to exploit on a site where we thank & respect the work that everyone here puts into their additions/edits...aka...their #'s

That e-peen is something that has to be cut off at its source. *snerk*

Just my 2 cents on the "sub-Swag" categories...I...like them -but- not so much so the way that they are.What I mean is - that I think it's great that we now have these different options & categorizations for different types of swag...but, if it's at all possible...I'd *MUCH* rather still be able to click-on my 'overall' Swag category...AND THEN...have the break-down as an added menu/option -instead- of the replacement that it now is.Then again, it's quite possible that I can arrange/set my settings to do so...and just don't know about it/how to do it.Thoughts?!
I've been saying to Matt for awhile that we should collapse categories by brand.
I like the idea of eventually having nesting categories... but I'm sure it'll be a while before it can be implemented. Nesting companies like Sony, Sega, and Nintendo would be useful as would be nesting things like all digital items.
