Howdy! I think this might be the first week without a major game jam going on - the total number of games to look through was just under 100 (exactly 99!). It'll be interesting to see over time what the real average games/week is.
Speaking of, some work was done this week to help me build out an analytics page. Right now it just tracks page hits and the new thumb up and down button clicks, but I hope to also get an open ended feedback text box on each newsletter as well. These are all fully anonymous, not even psuedonymous, and will help me get a feel for how high my bar is for featuring games, and perhaps insights on how useful stuff like these little blurbs at the top are. I've rolled my own handler for tracking these events and such, so that the information never leaves my server to go to Google analytics or anyone else. That does mean I'll have to make the dashboard myself, but at least I'll have full control over it - I'm likely going to be using unovis to help.
I didn't really get into any of this weeks releases, but I'm still chugging through Points Progression and having a good time with it.
