I have received this review reply on my submission. Funny because when I was submitting my MSI I went though a whole section on gaming. Why make me go through this section when no games are allowed?
Now, what do I do about it. Is there a way to change the submission from MSI to Game? I don't see an interface for this. Do I just start over with entirely new application? The game name I want is already reserved (by me) and it would not let me.
Please advise.
Yuriy.
