-The company has to be in America, and you have to at least know what city they're in. (Preferably a ZIP code or better yet street address, but just city will work.) The main reason is that right now I don't have geocoding support for anything outside the U.S. If the site takes off, I'd definately like to add it, but for now, stick to U.S. companies.

-The company has at least one fulltime, 40+ hours a week, employee. I don't mean to disparage groups of people making games in their spare time. (Heck, I'm making this website in my spare time.) On the other hand, there are a startling number of such "companies", and I don't think it would serve our needs to fill the database with them.

-The company must have a website. If for no other reason, at least so I can verify they exist.

-They must actively be involved in developing games. No publishers without in-house dev teams, no recruiting firms, etc.

-No online poker, or casino gaming companies. That's a different kind of gaming, which is plenty interesting in its own right, but someone else can make that website.

-They must fit in one (or more) of the platform categories below.

Let me know if you think these rules are silly, or need some expansion.

Thanks!
