How do I add a game to the Repo?

I posted a romhack here. But I was wondering how to add it to CDR.

You'd have to become a repo curator. I don't really deal with that part of the site, at least for now, so I don't know the exact specifics but my understanding is that

1. Keep uploading stuff to the downloads section
2. When the crew sees that you've uploaded lots of working files and are diligent about updating them to the latest version they'll mention you in our super secret club
3. If at least a few of us vouch for you someone will reach out via a DM

That's the gist of it I think.

Do games that appear on Internet Archive count? Cause there is a lot of lost roms there.

As far as i know, the important thing is that they should be safe and work correctly.

Games that have been fully tested by the users who share them are the best.
If you haven't fully tested them, you can still share them, but it's recommended to mention that you haven't tested them yourself, or how much you did.

Both quantity and quality are important factors.

Sharing a link to a big collection of games is great! but sharing individual games is the recommended approach... since each of them can be discussed and validated separately by other users and repo curators.
