points for making game is kinda low since it is so much effort to make a good game. I personally don't think 10 comments or 20 forum post = the difficulty of making a game. Like i am still working on mine and i am not even nearly done yet

I Totally agree, making games would be the biggest contribution to the site, and they should make it worth 100 points or something.

I agree, but The games better be good if the points are going up!

I think that a game could get 75AP if its an average game,such as a RPG with normal graphics,and 100AP for a good original game,that has good graphics...

Well we would need more people to check out the games and see how many points they are worth.

I thing the points awarded should be based on the overall opinion/score of the game, wouldn't want about 200ish Miniclip games flooding this website just for the points.

i think you get no points for a week, then after a week enough people will have seen it and rated it. Then you mulitply the rating by 10, and that is how much AP you should get.

I've never made any games but I have heard they take a really long time to make and take a lot of work. I think since you have to use a lot of your time to make a cool game that you should be awarded with more armor points. Or maybe they should give armor points depending on the score of the game and how many comments it gets. That would be a cool to people who make the best games.

I think madgamer has a good point. I like the idea of multiplying by ten. That means the bad games won't get as many points, but the great games will get alot.

Mmmm, yeah but you've got to exclude the Company/Community Accounts like CrazyMonkeyGames, MiniClip, Armourgames, ect. cause then with all their games they'll all be in the Top 10 which is something a lot of people want to be in but there'll be not hope for them to reach it cause they've got a lot of games on here, many good, so they'll be racking huge points since they'll never stop submitting games

^But did they not earn those points by creating those games? Yes, they did. They should be allowed the same rights as any other creator. It's funny that with one merit I get for writing a review that took 3 minutes to write I get more points than I would for spending months coding a game.

Megamickel is right.
He got merit for like 3 minutes but game you make some months.
And i hope they change this point system.

yeah, but they don't really care about points, nor need them, their account is made just so they can submit games and get people to play them and go to their site, not to talk, rate games, write reviews. And yeah, while it is your choice to make a game, not armourgames', you could get a little bit more points for sharing your game :\\

Yes, would be good to give some good games "bonus" points in the long run when people like it.
