I guess it's a good thing then that the negative votes do not count against us in the race to top 100.

All you need is yes votes, a no vote simply means that specific user doesn't count towards a yes (as if he never voted to begin with).

This is a prime example of when a marketing person should be doing their work.

Hashtags on twitter posts like #gaming #games #gameswithfriends may help. More frequent too.

I recommend everyone read this ebook:

http://www.zeromomentoftruth.com/

You can get it for free from that site, iBooks, Amazon, etc.

It may change the way you think about PR and Marketing (for the better), especially if you're already in or interested in those fields.

Can we get a percentage update?
The paucity of posts and the length of time this has been going on seems indicative that it may not happen...

73% to the top 100. We've basically stalled out at ~70%.

The bigger issue here, though, is that even if we hit this totally arbitrary milestone (getting in the top 100 doesn't increase your visibility within Greenlight to Steam users at all), it means absolutely nothing unless Valve themselves greenlight us. It's still 100% in their hands; even the #1 game isn't a lock for being greenlit afaik. Greenlight is a filtering system for an ultimately autocratic decision, not a democracy. I'd be curious to know if Valve even looks past the top 100 (if not, I guess that'd give some meaning to the "top 100" percentage).
