I have a good idea. Everyone who has more reviews than Clay should delete their lowest vote getters and least favorites until they have reached the same number that he has.



Works for me!!!

It's nice having all voted reviews, but I know a lot of the reviews didn't really justify the vote.


I saw that too and was heartsick. Not because you got votes you didn't deserve [if somebody had done that to me, I would ruefully admit to just that], but because it ruined a perfectly fine game where we were encouraged to judge 0-voters [see my previous post].



I shared your heartsickness, Grasshopper. This was a random kamikaze move that did nothing to recognize deserving 0 vote reviews. Unfortunately the miscreant chose not to bomb my reviews!!!!


Though I am generally in awe of your skills, Sensei, I just can't approve of what was done here.

Whoever did that was shameful and awful, and poor Cankie had to throw up his hands and kill the game.



Yes, the game had to be taken out back and shot... Too bad, 'cuz the thread had been progressing nicely up to that point, and I too was nauseous when I saw all the votes coming in for what seemed like no apparent reason(for my zeroes anyway). 'til then there had been a nice quid pro quo aspect to the participation. The thread will be started up again in due time, but it may be awhile.




Old-timers will recall that I ran the very same game, 0-Vote Mania!, for a while before you came along. Why did I give it up? Because somebody else was willing to go to the trouble!

Hey clay, another fun goal is getting the top review for films. There's a stat you can add which shows you the percentage of films you've reviewed for which you have the top review. This is one of the things I aim for most actually. I've managed to work up to almost 42% - it's the third stat down here.

You can also see where you rank in terms of this stat here. (And this is the thread where I found that.)
