A facebook group will do very little in any meaningful sense; the amount of people you'll reach is negligible. If you want to start a concerted grassroots marketing campaign you're in pretty much the ideal market and environment to do so, which is really quite lucky. PM me if you'd like some contacts for marketing models - I've two people in my address book who do it for a living for very high-profile clients and one of them has talked to a friend of mine for free before.
If you're not going to focus on Klik products on this site, then don't call it the Daily Click. It makes sense for non-klik games to be on gamebuilder because its called "Gamebuilder" not "Klik Gamebuilder"
Actually just change the name in general, it sounds like an online newspaper.

This is Koji. Copy and paste Koji to your sig so he can acheive world domination.
But don't you think you should choose one or the other? Now we are heading for a click community site on which user content is drowned in content from outside.
Actually right now the only content that is coming in from the outside is on the front page, the download page itself is looking pretty empty recently.
Be sure to follow us on the twitters for the latest and greatest: @dailyclick

Like with deciding who becomes and admin, the members dont have a say in the matter or get to vote?
I'm against changing the name of the site simply because that's like erasing all the history that this site holds to the people who've been members for years. Honestly, why can't the download section be broken down by which program the game was made in?
It would be interesting to just click a section of games from each program and then have one main section with them combined. If anything that would increase competition for people to make higher quality games to settle the debate on which program is better by seeing which ones hold the top spots in ratings. At least that way people could still go and look at klik games that they recognize while also being able to view other games all on the same site.

That really disturbs me too. I got the green light to start a gamemaking course at the school I work but TGF/MMF is just too expensive. They say "dude, Gamemaker is free, more popular AND Dutch!", failing too see those poor kids just don't understand a bit of Gamemaker. I want MMF 1.5 for schools!
