If it's practically round, wouldn't that make it smooth, as opposed to rough ?The codex has a hard on for "rough gems", and Arcanum is the ultimate rough gem (its edges are so rough, it's practically round). It won't budge from the top list, its butt is fastened to the seat with superglue.
It heavily impacts the cool graph of Incline... it will make the late 90's graph even higher, and decrease the early 90's.Aw fuck, just noticed that System Shock 2 date on the excel is 1994 instead of 1999....
It's a good game so who the fuck cares.

The Bayesian ranking is pretty over the normal one even though the top 10 doesn't change.
People would have voted differently with an averages system, so you can't retroactively do that and say that is the better graph, for obvious reasons.
E.g. I voted 5 for Alpha Protocol because I honestly believed it deserves a place somewhere in the top 50, but I don't believe it's in the top 10, so I would have voted differently, etc.
It'd make more sense to divide not by join date but by presence of popamole titles among the games one voted for.
Cause we all love tedious, endlessly repetitive battles with trash mobs that respawn within 5 minutes right?Get the fuck out of here heathen!So basically this list traded Icewind Dale for Wizardry 8 for extra kodex edginess. Nice to see a blobber in the top 10 but maybe next time we should upvote one that doesn't suck brutally. Then again, it's probably the only one 75 % of the youngfags here actually played.
BEHEAD THOSE WHO INSULT WIZARDRY 8!
We'll have a Top-something list free of popamolers' votes. Isn't it a good thing to have?It'd make more sense to divide not by join date but by presence of popamole titles among the games one voted for.
That makes no sense.
What conclusion would you make except that people who voted for popamole tend to like popamole and people who didn't don't?
felipepepe dunno if I missed it, but did you do lists comparing pre-decline-codex members (joined before 2010 simply because the "decline" meme started around that time, IIRC) and post-decliners? Not that I really consider old fags to be much different. Lotsa morons there too. I'd just be interested if there are significant differences.
I'll go with 4 each.

We had a huge discussion about this. Gothic 2 is grouped with Night of the Raven because it was released as so outside of Germany. World of Xeen is grouped as well because they were made to be played together from the start, and there's vast ammount of extra content only accessible this way.felipepepe I think You really shouldn't count M&B and M&B: W as different games. I mean one plays it only for it's gameplay mechanics. I think everyone who chose one of those really meant both as everyone who chose G2 and G2:NoR really chose the same game. It would mean that M&B gets into the top 50.
I'm not gonna do that, too much trouble for a retarded thing. The voting is public, there you can see various newfags that had just registered with very monocle votes, while A LOT of the old fags gave lame votes.felipepepe dunno if I missed it, but did you do lists comparing pre-decline-codex members (joined before 2010 simply because the "decline" meme started around that time, IIRC) and post-decliners?

Yeah, right. Because we totally need another list.Best/Worst Cover Art: DISCUSS!

I have even better list:
I'm sure it won't be controversial.
