A Favorites System[Subject Thread] [Add Response]

I have started to implement the favorites system. When you are signed in, a
special menu will appear on the menubar if it is a game page or if you have
already chosen favorites. This menu will be designated by a heart. The
heart will be red if it is on a page for a game you have favorited. It will
otherwise be grey. You can use the menu to favorite a game, to unfavorite a
favorited game, and to see a list of your favorite games. Presently,
editors get up to 24 favorites, contributors up to 18, and everyone else up
to 12. 

I have removed the top result of the old rating system from the What's New
Page. It was a sophisticated rating system that could not be used on all
games, and it hardly got used, making its results worthless. The same game,
European Chess, remained on top for a long time, because no one was using
it. So I'm deprecating it. The comment rating system will remain
unaffected. It is unrelated to the favorites system.

As I have more time, I will add features that display the most favored
games, maybe a Top 10 submenu and an Editors' Picks submenu under games.
