It's not a personal thing. Sometimes he misses things.
It's probably not best to ask him to front page it yourself. But it does have a high score, so, if you want (some people don't want front page due to it hurting your score), I can e-mail him about it. It's most likely he didn't have room for it at the time or overlooked it or something.
I'm English and I'm that guy who made that MARDEK thing. How interesting.

I don't really care so much about SCORE; I care more about getting more reviews, and getting the game more noticed so then more people can perhaps enjoy it or something like that!
So I'd appreciate it if people would indeed suggest MARDEK 2 for front page, but at the same time I don't want to seem like I'm BEGGING for it or anything like that... hm. AND he might have chosen NOT to feature it for various reasons ANYWAY...
We cant 'suggest' things to frontpage. And you are begging. ;)
However, if it helps, there are topics in the Clubs n Crews section of the craptastic forums here that are specifically for people to review things that have been looked over.
After awhile though, being on the frontpage loses its sparkle, though.
I actually dread getting on the frontpage cause it means so many reviews (usually dumb reviews) that one has to shift through and answer.
Well, MARDEK 1 got on the front page and got over 700 reviews for that, which was great because it allowed me to use peoples' suggestions to make the second chapter a lot better... And I was hoping that chapter 2 - being better than chapter 1 - would get front page also so then I could use the suggestions to make chapter 3 even better, but... oh well!
I was never sure about how things got on the front page though, so I suppose now I know! o_O
We can't? Hm. I was always under the impression that Tom was open to front page suggestions.
Well that was stupid of me to say then.
Getting a Daily 1st is usually your best bet for getting frontpaged. Basically every Daily 1st gets up there eventually.
I'm 100 % sure it gets frontpaged soon. There is no sense to frontpage submission for few hours and then replace it with something. Just wait and see. :)
It isn't an instant thing to be front paged MOST OF THE TIME. Its true that the second chapter is better in every way, but it lost the silly aspect, which might have been what Tom Fulp liked about it.
Well I'll PM Tom about the Frontpage thing I mean you deserve it man.
Well hope you get front page soon and hope you make Part 3 even better and with more side-quests
I just think that Tom and everybody else at the office go through everything thats released everyday and just filter everything, like say, this goes on Front Page and this doesn't. OR, it's all based on the score that we leave.
Otherwise, my comment on it was probably that there were too many bugs upon release that it just held it back from front page-dom. Who knows, really? I mean, I'm an idiot, and I don't really know how things work.
Well some people do get front page, but it all depends on what kind of movie you do and it depends on tom fulp and the people to decide. but i don't know, i played mardek 1 so, WHOA i did not see mardek 2 come out, i'm glad you had that out!
It's on the front page now, and personally I think it is because the one's resposible for it didn't read this question, because it's a bit on the begging side...
Anyway, the game does deserve it, so I am glad it's on the frontpage.
GreatMagicHat I just checked Front Page and it's not there.
Well I hope it will be put there soon it deserves it.
I also sent you a PM with suggestions for part 3 Pseudolonewolf you should check it out
I'm sorry, not front-frontpage, but games-front-page :P
I screwed the two up...
Well, it got in the top 10 of the week, so it may get more publicity now...
But in the end, that's life...
I have no idea why the hell it wasn't featured - it was amazing. I just finished it after about ten hours gameplay, and I thought after the Reaper bit it would be the end. I was waiting for "Congratulations!" all the way through that ending hour or two. I've recommended it for the adventure game page at the very least.
I can see why you would want Mardek 2 to get front page, and don't think your question should be considered "begging" at all. You must have put a ton of work into it, and it doesn't even have 20,000 views yet. It definitely deserves front page, and if Tom Fulp took suggestions, I would suggest it at once.
Awesome game, keep up the good work!
(P.S.... How were you able to make multiple files load the same shared object? :P I, in my noobishness, never knew that could be done.)
Yea u really cant suggest urself cuz they pick, but since mardek 1 was a front pager, then yea they'll most likely look at it cuz 1) its a high scorer 2) i think they always put something thats like a sequal or related to something they posted on the front page.
With the people who said they might have missed it, I dont think so because pretty much they know everything thats submitted and ive seen other works with super high score that recently came out, but no front page, then after a few days its on. Most likely its because other works are to be put on the front page first, so ur mardek rpg 2 will probably be on in a few days i dont but most likely it'll be on
I know I should tell this in a review, but I aéredy reviewed the Madrek 2, so I write it here: I found another annoying bug: the game often doesn't let me using skills like healing or water lungs, without any reason! This happens everywhere, not are-specific.
I know exactly how you feel :P.
My Agnry Faic game didn't get front page, and Tom even PM'd me saying he liked it xP.
Atleast its in the Adventure Games collection :).

You may or may not remember me reviewing the first chapter, but either way, I don't care if there's someone else making a kickass RPG xP, I really like this and I really can't wait for Chapter 3 :3.
By the way, today (11th), I'd only just noticed that you'd made Chapter 2, so yeah, maybe alot of people missed it, that might have something to do with it not being as popular as Chapter 1.

Entirely just Tom Fulp's personal preference.
