They update automatically and there's been quite a few new ones in six months. Jhoi's Morgana guide and Mowen's Kog'Maw guide were both added within the past month.

If there's something specific you want to see you should nominate it.

^ Oh, I've noticed that too. They actually are updating, but for some reason it only shows certain guides in the same order they're listed in the featured page. I'm not sure what order they're in either - it's not most scout points, it's not highest rated and it's not alphabetical.

Quite confusing.

The featured guides on the homepage are ordered by the date that they were first featured. I'm open to alternative suggestions on this. We could even just show a random selection of guides each time to give them all equal exposure.

^ Are you sure? I thought the first two guides to be featured were Searz' rune guide and Mowen's new player guide, but they're not even on the front page at all. Jhoi's Morgana guide was one of the most recent to be featured and it is on there.

Random seems like it would be the most fair way. Either that or in order of most scout points.

Let's not go in order of scout points.

I thought it was in reverse order. As in, every time a new guide is featured, it goes to the top, and the rest get bumped down the list. So guides that got featured first get pushed down, while more recent features are on the top.

I don't think that would be a terrible idea, though.

EDIT: Actually, it looks like it's sorted by "Date Created", and excluding general guides. I'd take anything over that, but I think it's better if it's not sorted in order of scout points. :/

I'm in favor of the randomized idea.

Ya random is good.

Not that I don't like having my guide permanently in the #2 spot, but it doesn't seem entirely fair. :P
