That's the first search I've done with seeing what top articles are at The Daily Click. Problem: There's too many of them and I don't have enought time to look through all of them. Am I saying I'm not going to check any? Oh, no. not at all.
I could use the admins help especially because most of them have seen a lot of the articles and know which ones are good or bad.
LOL, the most viewed article is highly over-rated .
I'd suggest you look at my latest articles. They're pretty good, IMHO.

Oh, and take Muggus's article as well. I liked that one.

Yeah, and while we are advertising our articles. If you need ini help, check my ini article.
I think he wants a proper list of the best articles, not everyone saying theirs is best. I could say both of mine are of the best, but they aren't, cos they only cover small aspects. I'd say the recent "Make or Break a Game" articles rank up there, and I have a soft spot for Tigerwork's "Why Get MMF?" because it basically calls all these MMF naysayers who cling onto TGF idiots, in a polite way.
I'm not searching articles with "good article" in it, the searches include the comments and I'm seeing which ones people think are good articles.
I'll start looking through some articles tomorrow: right now I'm just too tired to do that.
Asparagus Trevor's Gore article and the recent copyright ones both deserve a place I believe. The top-10 articles box isn't that accurate. For example, if someone posted the world's best article a month ago, chances are it would not be on that list. Conversely, some on that list are ones with titles that sound informative, but actual content that is somewhat lacking.
Hmm.. I got a compilation of articles (including some I never published for uh.. political reasons) on my other comp that I was planning to use for an article compilation of some kind. If you want, I take a look at the list tommorrow.

Oh, yeah, I agree with Dines. The top 10 only shows the most viewed articles, not the best. Any newbie just entering the site would click the top one. Even some non-newbies are compelled to click on it again.
So overall, the top 10 articles and top 10 downloads are just stuff that were very highly hyped before the DC became as famous as it is. It's nearly impossible to shift the rankings unless you make something the world's wanted to see for years.

Sorry about the triple post, but unfortunately, the DC *STILL* doesn't have an edit feature even though the old DC had one.
Here's the list of the somewhat quality articles that I've written:
Anti-aliasing for newbies(and all others)
How to get your games downloaded from the DC
Drawing pretty graphics quickly -- Muz's way
And then there's the ever so popular, "Newbie bashing and klik standards", an article that greatly changed the klik community at that moment. For weeks after that, klikers were so inspired that they continuously produced anti-noob bashing articles to the point of pissing off Circy.
And then there's the good ones not everyone agrees with:
Creating the ultimate games - the secrets to it all
Making a good RPG, Muz's style
Have fun!
