Hi,
Currently featured games are randomly chosen, or they get picked using a poll. But the problem with this is, that there is a chance of games not becoming featured for over two months. Yes, I’m talking about Layer Spleef.
Staff said that with the current system for featured games, games are allowed to be featured 2-3 times a month. But this is not the case. It’s been forever since Layer Spleef was last featured. I’m sure there’s a different game that has the same issue. But I am sure Layer Spleef hasn’t been featured for at least over a month.
That is why I came up with a few ways to make it more fair, and to make sure all games actually get featured.
1.
You make a list, with every featured game, and re-use that every time. So if the list is
Quakecraft
Blockwars
Survival Games
Layer Spleef
Etc.
Then next time, once all 12 games have been featured, the same list will be used.
2.
Similar to the first one. Every featured period (I don’t know what else to call it), a new list will be generated. Currently a game will be randomly picked. But with this you generate an entire list. This way there’s a bigger chance of a game being featured more then once in the two months.
So period one, a list gets generated,
Quakecraft
Blockwars
Survival Games
Layer Spleef
Etc.
Then next period, the list will be generated again,
Layer Spleef
Survival Games
Quakecraft
Blockwars
Etc.
3. Players will vote for either a permanent list, so it’s basically idea one but instead of generating it, players will vote.
4. Players will vote for a list every period. And in the time the first period is going, players can vote for the list for the second period.
The way this would work is that a staff member will open a thread, with a poll. Then when the vote ends, the game with the most votes will be featured first, second place will be featured then etc.
If a game has the same amount of votes, it’ll be randomly picked.
My only issue with this is that players will probably vote for the same game and it’ll turn out in a sort of permanent list after all.
5. Keep generating it per game. But once a game has been randomly chosen, for example Blockwars, it’ll be removed from the list for that period. So it can’t be randomly chosen again until the period is over. You can still keep the vote and everything. Because as far as I know, once a game has been featured by vote, it gets removed from the poll so it can’t be chosen again.
