Hi! I'm Kiliano Lopes, im brazilian and english is not my first language. 
In the oficial website, my game is 1º place on GBJAM 3:

 



BUT.....


I dont win the gbjam 3, i get a second place. It's not fair with Roguelight, the real winner.

I know is past and places is not important in jams, but just saying. Can change that please?

Sorry post this here, i can't find the email of page creator.

No worries, the forum is a fine place to post about page errors.

The archived jam page has Tim_ ranking above Roguelight. I don't know why it would be different. I'll make the adjustments.

Thanks for your report!

EDIT:
Tim_ had an "overall" score of 4.51 and Roguelight had an "overall" score of 4.47. There seemed to be a separate "overall" score which must have broken the algorithm for sorting the games. You are correct that Roguelight got an actual overall score of first place.

GameJolt probably does a similar thing that itch.io does where it adjusts scores based on how many votes they get above/below the mean of votes per game.

oh, duh. yeah, it explains it right there in your screenshot. it’s a weighted average.

Check the screenshot again - there's a user rated category for "overall" similar to "graphics" and "sound" as well as the computed summary also called "overall". I think that broke the back end where it sorts entries by "overall" score in the parent page listing.
