That's a lot of hosts for all those games! Do you upload to all places yourself, or do they spread beyond your control? Good year; hopefully the next one will be even more awesome!

I've uploaded a few of my main games to 3-4 hosts, but the rest are out of my control. I can't really complain about free views and such, so it's been nice seeing these things spread.
Anyways, hope you have a happy new year!

Happy to hear about the positive experiences you had with NG this year!

We've been thinking a lot about the blam system and the ongoing relevancy of it - part of the initial intent was a mix of quality control but also keeping storage under control. Storage isn't as big of a concern nowadays and we have alternate ideas for quality control - for example instead of being blammed, your entry could just be relegated to your user page and not show up anywhere else. The blam system was exciting in early internet days but I worry that nowadays it just scares off artists who would otherwise upload to the site. Wonder how many people overall have been intimidated by it.

At first it was a bit intimidating, not knowing the community, standards, or really anything about the website, but after hanging around, it's really quite cool having the community be quality control. It's a cool system to have, and that alternative sounds better for those who may worry about getting their game completely removed.
Anyways, happy New Year!

Getting your work distributed free of charge does seem pretty smooth. :) Though, wonder if you get revenue through those unofficial sources? Via embedded ads? Happy New Year to you too!
