Tagging Entries

Bit late in the day for this time around but it would be awesome to be able to tag games e.g. genre, library. For example, for I've been looking at RPG games for this time around and it would be nice to have a quick way to look them up. :-)

That's a nice idea. The games are hard to sort through, definitely. Support!
PyWeek website is open source, there's a link in the footer of the page. Go to bitcucket, clone the repo and... hack! ;)
The games from previous challenges could be presented so much better. I picked up the Pyweek.org source once, but I ended up writing tests for the auth system instead (full of holes, FWIW).
The current codebase is maintained very infrequently by a single developer (me) using a few hours I can scrounge around each PyWeek, so yeah, any contributions would be gratefully received :)
We need a PyWeekWeek for upgrading the pyweek site :P Seriously, though, when I get some time, I'll look around in the source and see how this could work.
I've had to make some changes to the code to adapt to the new hosting (Django 1.6 from 1.5 mostly but also the HTTPS changes) which haven't been pushed back to the repos yet.
I recommend searching for "rpg" "marked the game as" site:pyweek.org. This will return games that use "rpg" somewhere in their description or diary entries, although several of those will be things like "I decided not to make an RPG." But there are a few hits that are probably RPGs: https://pyweek.org/e/selfdestruct/ https://pyweek.org/e/eevee_evolution/ https://pyweek.org/e/nonstop_nidoran/ https://pyweek.org/e/xkcd/ https://pyweek.org/e/kfed1/ https://pyweek.org/e/fruitbat11/ https://pyweek.org/e/doubleimpact/ https://pyweek.org/e/twoandhalf/ Keep in mind, RPGs are pretty ambitious so there might not be that many!

Ehhh... okay, the link was supposed to be:

https://www.google.com/search?q=%22rpg%22+%22marked+the+game+as%22+site%3Apyweek.org

And the links to the games are:

Thanks Cosmologicon - will have a surf through those entries for inspiration. Might take a look at the PyWeek.org code after PyWeek and see how the tagging might work :-)
I shouldn't be to difficult. Also, I'm surprised how low scored these RPGs, being a very difficult project for just a week. Tempting!
