Featured stories

12 years ago

I was wondering what the criteria are for a story to be featured. I've noticed that the highest rated stories are not always the stories which are featured, in the 'fantasy adventures' category, for example, the lowest rated featured story only has a rating of 6/8 while there are many better rated stories; and in the 'edutainment' category the two stories with a rating 7/8, which are the highest rated, aren't even featured. So, are there criteria besides rating for featuring games?

Well, I think it also depends on how many times a story is rated or how many times a story has been read.

I think the main criteria is that you need to be able to go back in time to when the mods and admins on this site were still active. Basically the admins decide which games get featured based mostly on their personal preferences and since most of the admins don't really use the site anymore it's mainly older games that are featured.

That's really quite sad, actually.

Is there anyone left that is active?  Someone who can 'deputize' a few more people?

Well, I think JJJ can feature stories, and he shows up sometimes.
