    Hey, Quickwit, how about a social group for TOFTT, if you are really serious about this. And I don't want to be a member. You can create one here It would be the best way. I'm not buying crapps, supporting the devs, when the games obviously suck. Count me out.

    TOFTT should set up a review site.

    Sure... we can form a social group... but it's really about being the one's that look into the apps for people. None of us really want to buy/support crap app devs... but every once in a while there's an app that may or may not be crap and people are slow to pull the trigger. A TOFTT'er can see if it's worth it or not. We can see where this goes.

    But it would also be cool to have Agents of TOFTT on the App Store that can call BS on games that are just crap so that someone going to the store can see that it's been TOFTT'd and called out, hopefully meaning that they'll stay away from something that should never have seen the light of day to begin with.

    This is really in answer to "Rate My Kiss". All of us looked at it and thought, WTF. We wanted to know what this app was, but we didn't think we'd ever know because we wouldn't take the plunge. Dorfdad turned it into something very fun. I'm hoping that maybe we can do this again... If not, TOFTT will fade away.

    And remember, being an Agent of TOFTT is not only volunteer, it's also something that can be done in various ways. Posting warnings about others who have tried this game can also be a way to TOFTT,

    Okay... Group started. Not sure if it will do much but it's there.

    Just remember, whether you buy apps or not to TOFTT, if you put a review up on the app store for a game that isn't very good and you want to warn people, let them know that you're and Agent of TOFTT and that you "Took One For The Team". Who knows, maybe after a while people will come to look for TOFTT.

    Seems like Dorfdad could even have a regular feature on his site from Agents of TOFTT.

    I already have that covered!!

    We could pick one app a week and every weekend we could feature it.

    Ill even make a category for it specifically.

    Since On weekends I'm not doing review for the site, this would keep the site busier on weekends for sure!
    We also need a price limit I suppose, and I think we need to do a queue for people (ill add that to my forum if you want it!?) Forum is being designed now.

    I suggest we pick an app once a week and whoever is next on the list is the victim! No haggling its your turn to TOFTT!

    I understand the concept, but aren't you just giving money to crappy developers, motivating them to make more crap

    and is there any organization, like a site that has all the reviews? or is it just whatever happens to be on the forums, someone will post a review about it, and it will be forgotten?

    That's only one person does it and tell everyone if it actually is crap or not. That way a bunch of us don't go out and buy it if it is really crap. So if it's worth it then it will get the sales it needs. Otherwise the developers won't get our money if it sucks. One sale for them is not worth it and motivating them to make mroe if we only have one person buy it to test it out....

    One dollar in the devs hands won't make them rich. If the game is truly bad, our reviews may put LESS money in their pockets by exposing them as such.

    Dorfdad posted his review on his appVersity.com site, and YouTube.

    In the end, at least for me, it's just for fun.
