Why do some systems with sheets, not appear in the system search of find a group?

Most sheets are community created.  The list of systems is Roll20 created. At some point they may update that list to include more systems.  If you would like to see a system in the list of games I would create a suggestion in the suggestion forum.  You might make the suggestion broader (and more successful) by focusing the request on a more rapid update of the list of systems rather than the inclusion of any specific system. Or by linking system search it to the list of systems in the character sheets.

As I understand it, it's mainly down to how many people use the sheets. Roll20 don't want a long list of systems that are never played, and just hit people with information overload when looking at the search. Personally, I think all sheets shuld be represented, but that's the ratioale Roll20 have given before, and it's one that makes sense.
Just seems odd , i can create a game , but you can not search for that games ruleset. very odd. Perhaps if it pulled the ruleset up if you typed it in would be better me thinks.

What I have seen folks do is to put the name of the game in the description or the title. Then a keyword search can find it.
