RE: 2011 Feedback Thread
I just have a quick thing to say about this...
(10-29-2011, 06:09 PM)onpon4 Wrote: 1. Replace the "Likes" system with either a "Likes/Dislikes" system or a 5-star rating system (I myself would prefer a 5-star rating system, but "likes/dislikes" would be fine).

The problem of adding a "dislike" side to any voting is that when in a competition like this one, it will be used by other people/games with a larger community to easily skew the results against games that really deserve it. This was pretty evident in 2010 when a similar system was in place and games in the same categories would duke it out and bring down those who were placed highly at the time. With the system we saw this year, you essentially could vote for what you wanted and what really deserved it... but again... it is abusable by people who have access to multiple internet connections or proxies. It's a nice idea, but unless you can find a way to curb the competitive tendencies that will erupt in a competition, it's likely going to work against the idea of really being fair.

Quote:3. Sort the booths by average rating, so that ones with an average of 4.5 stars will be closer to the top of the page than ones with an average of 3.5 stars.

Unfortunately... if that was the case, it would present an unfair bias to those who were already in the lead... something that would kinda work against the idea of making things fair... plus [/quote]. If you knew already that all the good games were at the top, why even consider venturing to the bottom of the list at all? If things were to be truly fair, you would have to make it so that every time you visit the booth page, all the booths would randomize positions so everyone has the same chance to be on the top... which honestly is a nightmare for finding a game, and then voting for it later... as well as problematic for just coding the site to do on it's own. The current system does have it's bias, but unless there's another suggestion posted that is ultimately better, it still works at giving everyone as much of a fair chance as possible.

--------------------
The scoring system does need some work for it to improve, but what was in place this year worked well for the most part. Reviews, like you said, will likely need to be considered a little more heavily as far as their weight determining the best of show.
