I agree. I always scroll down the page and dont go for top items (games in this case) first. I couldnt get buyers for things in ebay and etc because sites favors the top ranks. When I was going to play a game few minutes ago, I learned that I cant rate anything since I didnt get to submit a game. I don't think it's fair because how can they tell if someone purposely doesnt rate a good game in order to win.
It makes it fairer if only people who participate actively in the jam get to vote. Otherwise, things might get a bit hairy with people creating accounts just to vote on their own games. Hope you understand, and hopefully, we'll see you in the next jam!
I wish that it had said in the rules that people who joined the jam but didn't submit a game couldn't vote. I joined hoping that I could vote but will know not to bother next time.
