Questions about a storygame? Thoughts on Eternal? Any other IF you're playing out there?

Was checking up on the comments for my Tower of Riddles game and I noticed the ratings... Played 2,558 times, finished 217, rated 252... How does that work? cheeky

When you finish a game, you don't necessarily have to rate it. Of course, I'm pretty sure that the system is busted somehow anyway, but that's a possibility.

Wait... No, nevermind. This is the other way around. That's odd :P

I think if you unpublish it the finishes resets but ratings don't.

Oh! Yeah, that makes sense 'cos I unpublished the game for a little while to correct some spelling mistakes.

I have the same problem on my Years Gone By story. More ratings (14) than finishes (9)

There's a little link that allows you to skip rating the story entirely, if you didn't notice.

Yeah,  I thought that too-- until I reread it :P

'finished 217, rated 252'

You can't rate it before you finish it haha, I blame it on the old site, though Galo's theory seems sound.

Yeah, the site needs to be a little updated I guess. Alexp doesn't get on much, does he? A bunch of those games like chocobot's Jurassic Fairview Park have tons of ratings but low amounts of finishes.
