To Mark. I can not admit that we did a mistake, nor the opposite. YoYo Games’ case is right at the border. Its focus is on games that you can download and the community seems to be a plus. I can admit it is not so clear as the first time we saw it. We required submitted projects to be centered on Web 2.0 stuff (more than 50% of their pages….) and YoYo Games looked like a games site more than a web 2.0.

Anyway, I learnt something out of this discussion. Next year we will put more time on deciding which projects are considered Web 2.0 and which ones are not. We will probably offer a reply system so that the committee’s decision can be discussed.

I would appreciate it if you would at least say that you made a mistake regarding YoYo Games.

From what I have read, Yoyogames did not make it because of… a laziness by the comittee to compare it to Web 2.0’s definitions. That is very sad, especially when you did not inform all of the contestants competing in this lackluster competition of the rules.

yoyogames.com clearly fits all common definitions of Web 2.0. When comparing yoyogames.com to the other selected sites I can find nothing that would suggest they meet Web 2.0 that yoyogames.com doesn’t have.

Have you ever been to yoyogames.com?

Why haven’t you addressed Mark Overmars question regarding why yoyogames is not Web 2.0?

If 300 entries were more than you could adequately judge and effectively communicate with, then why were you still encouraging people to submit entries on May 4th, the day before the submissions closed?
