Would it be possible to add the Powered by the Apocalypse to the Games when posting a new game?

If nothing else it'd be more accurate than Homebrew / Other.

Apocalypse World or Dungeon World is probably as close as it currently gets. However I see your point...the System should be PbtA, and the Settings should be Dungeon World, Apocalylse World, Tremulus, etc....

Yeah. It would help when setting up something like a game of MASHED or Night Witches, as there are many subset games within the system. Apocalypse World and others are just the most well-known.

I would also appreciate having PBTA as a game category. Would be more meaningful than "Miscellaneous" (too ambiguous) or "Apocalypse World" (very different tone and setting) for a game of Masks: A New Generation. ^_^

Me too: there are -I believe- three currently running ads for PbtA games; two of these games are the same specific system (Masks), but one is is under "AW" and one is under "Misc", which isn't a great situation.

Might as well put my own voice to this as well (in fact, I think I made a thread of my own about this a while back, but it's buried now). The current system is not tremendously helpful towards PbtA games, for reasons already mentioned.

Agreed. It's probably a better catch-all term, since there are so many different versions, and it would help to keep them less spread out.
