Why can new games not be categorized?

It seems like games made in the last few days can only be "Uncategorized" on the main website.

For my game, I know I've tried everything and no matter what I put, it will always put the game in the uncategorized section.

It will be categorised when a moderator has taken a look. A lot of games get uploaded which are complete garbage so these go into the Sandpit instead of their assigned category. "Uncategorised" means the game is pending review.

I think I'll change this when the new site is up and running - maybe have games go directly into their category, but with an additional tag "unreviewed". When a game is reviewed it will lose its unreviewed tag and potentially gain a "sandpit" one. The default game view can then show only reviewed, non-sandpit games.

Ah, I see. That would also make more sense. Sounds good.
