You literally just explained the point of a game jam, you don't know where you're going to be placed. And that's where rigging comes in, which I'm gathering is what you did to change your fate. I don't know though. Correct me I'm wrong.

well as i understood from the discord, these ratings are not the "final results", and there will be an announcement of the winners later on. so surely this means that it's up to the judges who wins. i will be sad if my game doesn't make it after being ranked 2nd, but i agree with you that there are many better games. that doesn't mean you have to call my game bad though or say that i dont deserve my ratings
you've made it clear that you don't think i deserve to be high up; saying that other games were clearly high quality as opposed to mine. but yes it was mostly the other person commenting that said my game "sticks out like a sore thumb". maybe that's your account too though seeing as it was created today, and you never posted at the same time as them
