    I kind of new here, let me know if I did anything wrong...

    Anyway I just been downloading a lot of NDS roms, the search function is quite good but the rating search seems a little off. As I don't believe Winx Club deserve to be on the first page of the search result.

    So here is my suggestion regarding the rating system.
    1. Encourage people to rate the games by offering point, or asking those who had downloaded the game to rate it the next time they log it.
    2. Any game that has less than 5 or so people rating it, the search engine would ignore the vote hence do not display it as it could be bias.
    3. Or display how many have voted and what is the average rating for the game.

    What do you guys think? Anyway sorry again if I did anything wrong.

    the rating that is displayed is an average.

    The latter part of 1 is already on our todo list so that will definitely come at some point.
    Number 2 is definitely doable and we might just do that.

    Well, the plan is pretty well set out.
