I plan there to be a next one -- in about six months. And yes; I definitely will tighten and more clearly redefine the rule a bit. I wanted this jam to be lax and a li'l wild west... but it seems I got too lax. This is the first time I have ever hosted a game jam -- only expected it to be small in which case these types of submissions are fewer, and I could enforce the rule of "Be nice"

The rule of "any game suspected to be submitted under deceptive or just bad intentions" though... I don't think it's what I would call clearly defined --  that rule basically says "any game I don't like might get removed" -- which is kind of against some of my core principles. Probably I will reword it some way to make it clear I'm not going to remove games simply because for example I don't like their message or their taste but yeah, thanks for the suggestion XD

I'd say that your first attempt at a jam is going pretty well, so you you shouldn't worry. :D

By the phrase quoted, I meant games like ones that have clearly been submitted to many different (often unrelated) jams for the purpose simply driving traffic to their game, and they were made like a billion years prior to the jam, as an example. I should have elaborated, but I'm not sure this clarification is satisfactory to begin with. D:

Yeah. I understand. I have updated the rule a bit with "red flags" to judge whether or not a submission is to be removed or not. Thank you very much -- I appreciate the concern :)

Cool, I'll check it out!
