Two points should be awarded for rating featured games. This creates incentive especially for new users to read exceptional stories and learn from them.

How about you get 2 points for reading exceptionally long stories? That'll silence the flak about "Too long!"

TWSS can only do so much.

That's What She Said.

Wouldn't this be hard to implement?  I mean, which stories are featured stories does change sometimes.  How would this be done, technically?

i dont feel like points matter titanically, but if anything should be weighted extra it should be very long stories in my oppinion.

Yeah, because long stories aren't always long on EVERY PATH, and they might not be very good stories either.

we dont need to encourage them to read good stories. why the heck would they wont to read a long sucky story. and if you are woried about them just clicking through to get to the end then they can do that just as easily with the featured stories. although some stories have protection against this, OMS for instance. if people realy wanted points they could just click through all the short stories and rate them just whatever.

Mine was a lot better after reading too. Destiny's Dream was my first ever, didn't read anything, and you don't want to relive that. Well, actually, it was about my 3rd, but the first 2 weren't much better. Actually, they weren't better at all!

we need ot encourage them to read the stories, they will see the higer rated ones, often the featured ones, and read those over the sucky ones. if they want to read they will read the good ones not the bad ones that arn't featured. Not that im saying an unfeatured story is bad. im not trying to make an ass of myself, let me know if i am, but from personal experence, if someone is going to read a story it will be a featured one that other people have enjoyed. thats my oppinion and ide like to think that there is truth in it. i dont beleive ive said anything thats truly false, but i am, by no means, saying that my point is the only true and valid one for i am certain that there are other equally true counterpoints.

the real point is how relevent the points are, thats not for me to judge.

@JJJ-thebanisher: with that, I can agree.
