 |
|
I guess each person can only rate each game ONCE !? So if you later have second thoughts, too late, what's done is done ?
Also - is there anywhere or any way one can find the TOP rated games on AB, apart from spending an hour carefully scrutinising every list page 
(Ideally a list of ALL games, in rating sequence!?!?)
Just wondered . . . . . . |

Re-rate could be kind of a nice feature, although we don't have it at this point.
Towards finding the highest rated games, I agree that there should be a page or section with the top rated games. I will look into that.
But, I do have a handy new tool!
On each of the category pages, there is a new control at the top right of the game listings that will allow you to sort the game list by 4 different criteria. By date added, game title, total plays and last but not least, game rating. |

. . . . . . . . . .  W O W I E E E E E E E E
You've done it again mate! A chance remark, a couple(?) of minutes coding, and VOILA: "a handy new tool". (And THAT understatement bears repeating: "a handy new tool" !)
In other words, all those new completely different ways of viewing the lists - hell, I'm gonna spend all weekend playing with that now.... and AGAIN I won't get any time to actually PLAY the durned games.
It's a conspiracy - that's what it is!  |

UH OH. 
<Glitch Mode>
Sort by Ratings is a bit dubious! See http://www.arcadeboss.com/arcade.php?mode=cat&sort_mode=rating&order=DESC&cat_id=10&start=0 which is 1st page of Skill games. 5s at the top, then 4.5s a bit lower. Fine.
But ... now flip on to Page 2 - carries on with 4.5s a bit... until... it hits Cursor Invisible, then suddenly it's back showing 5s again !?!

| The sorting AND the bit of code that decided how many stars to display was buggered. Thanks for pointing that out! |

Later - this is a similar effect, but may be a separate issue:
About 3 or 4 hours ago I gave the first Rating for "Pingz".
My rating of 4 stars shows in SOME places, but in others, e.g. http://www.arcadeboss.com/games-10-Games-of-Skill.html , it shows as ZERO stars. |

Appreciate the bump.
I've done some work on the ratings. The game page now includes more detail on the game rating, for example 3.7 instead of just 3. And the game page also gets the "half star" feature that the category page already had. The page where games are rated also got a correction in the value it displays. |
