Apologies if this is already in the web site, but I can’t find it: is there a way to search modules by popularity (number of users listed with the module)? I’m looking for new games to try…
I don't know if you can search by popularity or not but you can look at the game server status for the last 30 days to see which ones have had the most people and been played the most.
That gives you this top 25 (last 30 days), see below. Lot of problems with these numbers though. Two people who played the same module in the same room every day 25 times is going to be counted as 4. Four groups of three people who played the game twice, each group&game in a separate room, counts as 36. That is 750 games counted as 4, and 8 games counted as 36.
Anyway…
