Adding New Release Titles to Series
7 years ago

Hey so just wondering with the change to series mods from April that I just learned about, which from my understand now have no effect on individual games within the series, what is the best time to add a new game into the series? Since it makes it really relevant to do it before anyone else, but I'm not entirely keen on adding a game that doesn't come out for 5 months (>_>), just wondering when is the time to do that so it retains unity within the series?

imo the game should be added on release date

Once someone has done a run of it, preferably.

The issue I'm more talking about it, someone else may request the game say 3 days before release, and then will be sole moderator for it, and then it not having any unity for rest of the series. For a direct example I mean like Poke Sun/Moon, when is the best time for one of the Poke series mods to add that game so that it's not 1) blank space but 2) not taken by some random who has no idea what they are doing

There have been a few cases of games being added before release dates. I don't think anyone would mind if you used the add game button on the Pokemon series to add it.

@KnightDmG: I don't think the issue is with trolls, but with people who don't put as much effort into moderating.

Determining the right moderators for a game will always be a problem. One might think they have better direction with a game than another. Actually running the game gives credibility but there's feuds between runners as well. There's no easy solution for the admins to implement and has to be handled case-by-case.

I have usually said request it 1-3 weeks in advance for popular series. I've been pointing most pokemon requests to contact the series mods anyway, so it shouldn't be an issue.
