Can’t input Metamorphosis Alpha as game tag on game lobby page

Hi, I can only put Other Games as the tag instead of Metamorphosis Alpha. When I search for the game in join a game it’s not showing up anywhere. I can’t get a campaign started if no one can find my game. Any chance this can get fixed?

The games dropdown menus exist to help standardize the options available (example: 4E vs. 4th Edition vs. D&D4). No matter how many games are listed, some may not make the cut. Games are added to the list periodically. This ensures obscure listings gain greater visibility when sorted via the Other Games option and helps keep away “empty” search listings for underrepresented titles.  If you feel a game should be listed, encourage your community members to play and post often. The more community attention a title receives the more likely it is to be added to the list. 

You don't need a system to be in the dropdown list to play it; use 'Other Games' and put the name of the system in the listing text, all the forms of it someone might use.  Actually play the game.  Ask those you know who play the game to do likewise.

You don't need a system to be in the dropdown list to have a character sheet for it; ask in the Sheet Request Thread, Consolidated, mk I thread for someone to help you make or make a character sheet that can then be added to the list of character sheets available to users for their games.

You don't need a system to be in the dropdown list to ask the writers of a system to think about licensing their system for use with the Roll20 VTT; talk to whoever produces the system you're interested in, tell them how interested you would be in being able to have an Official Character Sheet and Official Compendium available on Roll20.  Ask those you know who play the game to do likewise.

Hello DJ,

Thank you for your suggestion. As already stated, the best way to get a game listed is to encourage others the system. The more players, the greater the chance the game will be added to the list. 

Suggesting a system to be put on the dropdown menu will never be a viable way of getting the title on the list. As such, I am going to close this post.

Thanks!
