Well, I've read the whole thread and I now can safely say that you

Still though, I happen to like Westfront, but trying to get your game
in some list of noteriaty or merit should be done be allowing the work
to speak for itself, not by trying to get it mentioned as many
websites as you can or posting every little change to the game on this
newsgroup or any other. If it was me, I would keep working on the
program until everyone agreed that my game was the greatest and be
happy just to have a smug look on my face.
