Wondering if there's some way to improve this listing other than just compiling what is seen on this board already.
I was thinking about if there is some way to note who made the original request and then also have someone else "second" a request, because anyone can just make a request for any game, and then would that have equal weight to any other request?
But then would it be unfair to newcomers? Are people going to take certain requests more seriously or not at all if they saw who requested them? Would people make alternate accounts just to second their own requests?
But then also, do we need to weigh the popularity of requests? Wouldn't that make obscure (but just as good) games harder to get mapped? Of course, that's also assuming anyone looks at these requests in the first place and actually considers them...but maybe they don't because they don't know what would be more worth the effort or more appreciated because they don't know which of these requests are actually seconded and thirded? Which comes first? Need experience to get a job, but need a job to get experience? Did the chicken come first, or the egg? Etc.
It's definitely tricky. Anyone have any ideas about if there's a way to manage/consolidate requests? I mean, as we've talked about umpteen times before, fulfilling them is another thing altogether. But just sorting them? Maybe there needs to be a standardized topic header for each request? I don't know. Now I'm rambling. Thoughts?
