UPDATES: USER POSTS, MAKERSCORE TWEAKS, AND MORE!
Posts
A few updates have been put up today.
-There is now a new tab in the user profiles to show the user's forum posts! I am still not entirely happy with this page but it works.
-There is also a new button in the user profiles to easily send that user a message.
-You can click your username in the top left to go directly to your profile.
-The Makerscore updating has been fixed and the values associated with games has been drastically revamped. Completed games give the netted MS a nice boost as well.
-This wasn't mentioned when it was fixed, but the Locker had a few file bugs inside it that have been removed. Thanks to Craze for trying to use the Locker and getting me frustrated.

For the locker, are you referring to how the locker would remove capital letters and replace them with their small letter counterparts?
post=100105Awesome.

Nope. The locker had a few problems for overwriting and deleting files.
post=100111DRRRRP yeah, that only tells me what they're worth, not how they're calculated. Scores given for games vary. I'm sure it has something to do with status of completion and average review score, but I'd like to know the nitty-gritty anyway.
Look at your Submissions panel.
Well, a five-star game in production is worth 500 MS and a completed five-star game is worth 150% of that (750 MS). That's all I know.
Hmm...my first three games are completed, so...
PH1 is 3 stars and worth 240 ms.
PH2 is 1 1/2 stars and worth 75 ms.
PH3 is 4 stars and worth 510 ms.
PH4 is a demo in production rated 3 1/2 stars and worth 280 ms.
...?

you forget your numerous reviews
The reviews values are straightforward. Every one of them is worth 30 ms (downloads are worth 15 ms apiece as well). I don't want to know how my total ms is calculated, just how it works for each individual game.
EDIT: And kentona inadvertently answered my question in another topic entirely.
So my four projects are worth...
3 stars PH1: 240 = 160 x 1.5
1.5 stars PH2: 75 = 50 x 1.5
4 stars PH3: 510 = 340 x 1.5
3.5 stars PH4: 280 = 280 (no bonus for completion)
I'm still curious to see the other numbers, but at least I have a better idea now.

Completed projects get a 50% boost in makerscore. Also, the better the game is rated, the higher the score. (A 5-star game is worth 500, and if its completed its 750). WIP just reworked the numbers last night. He will be eventually taking into account the number of reviews a game has.

i am fully happy with this page

I am not entirely happy with that since it doesn't show the number of posts.
(number of full pages x 20) + number of posts on last page
post=100196post=100195(number of full pages x 20) + number of posts on last page
I am not entirely happy with that since it doesn't show the number of posts.
Oh I didn't bother to do that : \
I'm stupid.

Number of posts is a worthless number.

Only because you don't have 6694 posts.
