Why can't I ever get front page???

I had 1 more view then the 3rd top viewed project, and the front page didn't update while it was there!!! And how come I never get more then 50 views in a week without advertising???

Cause Scratch doesn't have a related games section when viewing a project.

I get a lot less views than you, usually. I wouldn't be complaining.

Well you haven't really made anything good enough to hit front page.

Try some type of platformer.

Re: Why can't I ever get front page???

I don't like platformers very much. They're all similar(jump, press space, walk, jump) and boring(Oh I have to get to get the maggical' crystal).

They're not similar and boring when they're original and fun.

I can hardly get above 25 with advertising. you're lucky. and you're right, there are too many mario remakes here. and pokemon remakes. basicly, I just don't like complete remakes, where Nothing is changed.

I'm in that 'artist' group, but with quite a fw of friends. I usually don't get more than 30 views WITH ADVERTISING.  anyway - I suggest not complaining.

Because your not me? Idk, start a following.

(BTW, mario platformers, even if they are horrible, will make the front page just because people like mario that much. Its a proven fact.)

It's not exactly the amount of views that you get, it's the rate of the views.  For example, a video that gets 100 views a day for five days is different from a video that gets 500 views in five months.  Get it?
