Took about 6 weeks, but I had to ignore just about everything else in my life to do it.
groggydog, I imagine that's okay

Worst case is, it's just duplicate information. I think there is an API to add everything. Autumn Chen might have written a script? I think it is used for ifcomp.
Perhaps the only downside is, if you enter things before Brian does, your game will disappear from the front page sooner.

There’s someone named Zape who is a mysterious ifdb hero - they swoop in and put comp/festival games on ifdb every year. But giving them some help is good!
And yeah, I think autumn wrote a script for last year’s Comp but I assume it’d work a little different here since the formatting is different

Traditionally putting up IFDB pages is an individual effort by authors and players. There are no current plans for a way to get the games on IFDB. I'm going to be writing individual reviews for games and 'hiding' them until after the comp, and any game that's not up by the time I get to it I'l make a page for, but that could be a long time. So go wild and make pages!

Thanks for everything Brian 
congrats on the launch

I did! & Zarf boosted (he has a larger following than I do), so there's that. Already been a few boosts! I'll do it again in a couple of days
I'll do a gold machine thing too

Oop, I hadn't scrolled through my feed to see that Drew already had, so I made another mastodon post: https://icosahedron.website/@JoshGrams/110147787029165195
Oh well, the more, the merrier

I'm honored that you chose to plug our game specifically after the testing hell we put you through 
Heh. I mentioned the ones I knew something about, mostly. Been busy with the farm today and haven't gotten to dig in much yet.
1 3omg thanks for the mention too
Psh. Testing was fine though. I wish I'd realized more clearly at the beginning that I was running into unwritten endings than bugs, but other than that…
I'll nag people to go play other games as I get to them, I'm sure

7The Mirror entries aren't bad! All beginner work, I'm almost positive, but it's fun to see newcomers experimenting
10 1 2Yeah I sent them Josh's review and they were very pleased
8 7Ah, good to know! I'll definitely do something, then
2Samesies. Not great with reviews, but encouraging and rewarding the creativity of Slavokian schoolchildren seems like a worthwhile endeavor.
2 4Ah, good. I kind of wrote it for that and then forgot to ask you if there was a way to contact them…
OK, that's it, I'm revoking some people's thesaurus privileges

I knew what I was getting into with Manon's game, but Secret of the Black Walrus took me by surprise.
2I just want it on record that the application of the was meant to be silly. I'm actually impressed by this sentence.
1 1Thanks! I drew it myself
that's a complete lie
2 1My wife made up a similar thing while she was playing it
Do play 'Red Door, Yellow Door' when you get a chance - I'm getting stuck into it now and it looks like I'm the first to review it

Also currently stuck in Red Door Yellow Door 
Ah, and since it looks like you're new here (?) the blur-spoiler thing is hiding behind the formatting button that looks like a gear
Or… I'll get distracted by being in the middle of the first book in Naomi Novik's Scholomance trilogy and someone else will be faster. Excellent community.
2 3Hmm, that's a good question. @mathbrush is the organizer, so he might have a suggestion. A bunch of the authors are also here but as you just joined you probably can't initiate a private message yet, but if we ping them they could contact you and ask…
Or reply to the author in one of the review threads saying you have private reports to make, maybe
1
Being busy because you're in the middle of the first book of the Scholomance puts you at high risk of continuing to be busy because you're in the middle of the second book of the Scholomance.
1 2What's the line? I'm in this picture and I don't like it?
Ugh. You'd think I'd be smart enough by now not to stay up until 3AM reading a whole trilogy in one sitting. Good books, though

Ouch totally forgot about that
(ClubFloyd) was busy last few weeks…

I haven’t, but have you tried putting the links in the wayback machine?
1oh theres a thought. ill try that the next time i find a direct link- mewst of the time they just link to subq itself and mention the name of a game
tysm!

I’m planning to close this channel and archive the chat next week if there’s any last chat subjects to be hashed out.
