Add a "most viewed games section"

MinecraftRunner

I think Scratch should have a top 100 most viewed games section, so that you can see what other scratchers are playing. Yes, I get there is a “What the community is loving” and “remixing” but this is different.

I support this

Why? Loving and faving shows which projects are good, but views don't really represent how good the project is. For example, click-bait titles will cause loads of views, but not necessarily good content

MinecraftRunner

Maybe then do some weighted view/love/fave system?
Plus spam clickbait would get reported as such.

I'm sure it was removed for a reason, but support anyway.

Scratch isn't about popularity, no support.

Would it allow projects that are already front paged? If it would, there would probably be a lot projects that are already on the front page.

Front paged projects wouldn't be allowed.

Okay.

Uh… you can already do that.

Select the Games tag, then select Popular, however, this only works for projects with the tag “Games”. But, however, you can also just go to All and then select Popular since most popular projects are games anyways. You can just count the amount of games.

I've noticed that so many suggestions are things promoting fame and popularity, sadly

He's not being rude. He's calling out the flaws in your logic!

Scratch isn't about getting other people to see your work. It's about learning to code. If all you want if for other people to see your work, then try posting it on social media or something. Scratch is for coding. Not for fame and popularity.

But fame and popularity is one method of encouraging users to keep learning, creating, and challenging themselves.
