While we're at it, how does A Wizard's Life, Winterfold, 914, The Adventures of Mark and The 4th Year have as many downloads as they have?

More people need to download Trailblazers >_<

They're either on the Hamsterrepublic main site, OR, posting their links on porn sites, with promises of promiscuous young maidens, willing to bare all and do all on the first date. Either way, we need to put the great games up on these format.

Or, how about not worrying about the download count of your game, and rather, the actual content of said game.

And you can 300+ hits to a game just by linking as a image on your livejournal, by the way.

Why bother putting any message, any thought, any skill at all into a game, if it will find no audience, and do nothing at all? I make games because it's the kind of thing I like to play, and to see that download count go up means to me there's one more person who at least is willing to try something that I like, and that's a heartening thought. Why? I couldn't tell you, but it's the way I feel, and I don't know that I can change it.

If Zander would be named " Ander" it would have five times as many downloads. It's all about having a starting letter that comes early in the alphabet.
Think about it: Adventures of Billy..., A wizards life, even A magical adventure for mr Mushroom has a lot of downloads.

Yeah, personal insults are totally proving your point.

To the topic at hand, I'd like to say "whatever".

3m, people, he isn't complaining that his games aren't ranked higher. He's complaining that the Top 25 list is proving to be an incredibly unreliable measure of a game's quality, what with all the crap on it.

A good way to show that you don't care about something is to make a post complaining about it.

Ah, Iblis. Your infinite wisdom combined with biting sarcasm, it is making me fall in love with you.

And, to PHC's point, this "A- Bias" could be easily fixed by making the gamelist randomly choose a letter to show you. It'd make the numbers mean a lot more, anyway. But don't think that's stopping me from changing all my game's names to things taht work favorably within the "A-Bias".
