Please note that if you sign up to rate piecepack that you rate a
non-trivial number of other games, including non-piecepack games.
There are several reasons:

1.  BGG members can get quite angry about people that join just to
pump up the ratings for single games (shilling).

2.  The ratings system is supposed to have some shill-busting tech in it.

3.  BGG has features that statistically match games with games, users
with games and users with users.  The more games that you rate, the
more likely that people who would like piecepack are told that it is
the game (system) for them.  You will also get told about the games
that you might like to play.  Once enough piecepack games are entered
and many ratings are put in, then information that you entered about
non-piecepack games will help identify the piecepack games that you
are most likely to enjoy.
