Hi, thanks for the idea!  Can you explain it a little more?  I'm trying to understand "made with Linux or FreeBSD".  We don't currently have any rules around what OS the games are created with.  We do have a bonus point for games that "Run on Linux, web, or open emulator".  I could support changing that rule to "Run on an open source platform" with Linux/FreeBSD/web/emu being examples of open platforms.  Did I understand your recommendation?

Yes adding made with Linux/FreeBSD/web/emu or any open platform as a bonus points is what I'm trying to say. 

I say this because clear Linux is the only distro that will boot on my main machine so I go with freebsd instead

Oh!  I was mistaken!  We do have 1 point of open source karma awarded if the game is developed with Linux.  I think you're right, I'll change it to "developed on an open platform".

I missed the rule when searching the page because it was an image, not searchable text.  I'll fix that too. :)
