Hey guys, I've been working on a super huge recap of the recent 7DFPS game jam, and as a way to test out the new review feature, I'd like to invite everybody to contribute.

In particular, I'm keen to have some "editors' picks" (beneath the Long List Of Games). If anybody finds or has seen anything they like, feel free to add it there.

The other thing I'd be happy to have a hand with is adding a brief one or two sentence description of each game (preferably without using other games as comparisons). There are somewhere around 76 Linux titles all up, which is an awesome number. It's also going to take me a while to get through them all, and speeding that up would be great! :D

If anybody is super keen on investigating all the exciting Linux friendly games, I was thinking of also including a list of the browser based games that are playable on Linux, but I really don't want to slow the article down for that.

I'm not 100% happy with formatting (I'm considering breaking it down into a two or three part thingy), and I'm still working on other parts of the article (pulling in interview answers and preparing a chart or two) so if you do pop something in, be sure that you don't push it live. 

The article should be visible in the Admin Posts Awaiting Review section :)



Edit: Oh, and the "submit for review" button disappears when you preview an unsaved article.

People are constantly sayingI should interview myself, so I figured why not? :D

Oh, thinking about it, it might be best to add thoughts/contributions as comments so that I don't accidentally overwrite changes when I'm working on it.

Profile pages will now not showing hidden articles.
Profile pages now show who is an editor as well.

I will eventually make an about us page which will bring in each editors bio so make sure your bio's are neat ladies.

We could really use multi-page articles, liam. Think that's possible?

Yeah it's been on the back burner for a while sorry folks.

When accepting articles guys, make sure the headline makes sense in English. Changed the tex murphy one as the original headline didn't make sense.

Anyone opposed to the website emailing all editors when an article is sent for review by other editors and when a user submits an article, currently only emails me.
