    Hey guys, I just wanted to suggest a new sorting option. I think a "popularity"sorting column might be handy. Basically this would be # of downloads/days released.

    Of course, if you guys don't already have a list of release dates it might take a while to sort through...

    Anyway, just a suggestion if it's possible for you guys to do it.

    Um...we already have an option for latest released, and most downloaded games.


    I doubt we'd need this, the best games are timeless classics anyway :)

    I think I need to prevent people from replying to threads in here, it's always "we don't need this."

    I personally think it's a great idea to have a list of currently popular games, the only problem is that we don't keep the actual added date, so we'd have to base it on other relative data such as the row ID.

    Does the "date modified" data on the file ever change? If not you could use that info the do a rough estimate on when the games were added/created

    Changes if we move to a new server or if we rename a file, so it's not overly reliable.
