My response

Jon,

After one week using the site, I see the potential to really add to
social gaming in a major way. There are sites that allow you to write
about games, but none of them are really worth using. It's just a
blog, usually, and someone has to seek that out. This really has the
potential (and has already done so, even with our limited userbase) to
start real conversations about games with complete strangers, and make
new friends in the process. It feels natural.

I'm loving it, every minute of it.

The games list works quite well (even though it's culled from
Wikipedia at the moment) for finding games and creating an internal,
searchable database. The trophies give a good sense of contribution,
while not getting in the way.

As for what I don't like, well, nothing. You have my suggestions (and
expect more) but that isn't something I don't like, it's just things
that aren't present and/or bugs. I think you've got a solid framework
here, and an even more solid start.

Three things I'd like to see:
-- More community interaction. Perhaps the main page could have the
most recent posts and/or comments, most popular games people are
talking about, etc.

-- More interaction with *other* communities. The ability to post
things automatically to other networks, and more network possibilities
(tumblr, wordpress, livejournal (if anyone still uses that)).

-- More people! I don't know anything about getting users to a site,
but it can only thrive with more people. I'll help out in any way I
can.

Thanks again for thinking of me for this-- it's an honor to be on the
launchpad for this site.
