So this poster has put silent Bomber first, position1, the best. In EVERY single list, the thing you award "1" is in first place, the one you award 10 is 10th. Its such a straightforward thing to do, and i seriously cannot understand your continued aversion to do so. However, if you are ineterested in ranking them in some way, then simply ask for a "top 5". If you really are not interested in the order, and just want to see the 5 games people remember were the best then dont ask for a number or "points" at all. I know people will have a bit of fun with this, hence the sexist "period" comment above. I do know you are not trying to cure cancer, as i stated clearly in my post. I'll keep that in mind going forwards I didn't realise it aggravated so many people. You know we're not trying to cure cancer right? It is not exactly difficult maths, it would be a ridiculously simple calculation. If you have to assign a number so that you can add them up and present the result in the magazine with numerical list with those with the most "points" achieving the top spot then do so. In every other list, the position at "one" is the top and the position at 5 is "fifth best". Why not just ask people for "their top 5 playstation games"? And the problem goes away. Castlevania Symphony of the Night - 4 points
You have absolutely no idea which is the game the forum member considers best, and which 5th best.Īnd you have even forced people to do things like this, can you see how ridiculous it is:Ģ. International Track and Field (I still play this with my mates whenever I am back home)
I know they are not exactly a medical trial and its a bit of fun in a popular retro magazine (to which i subscribe), but it would be so easy to fix so that they actually mean something.ġ. I am sorry to be rude, but it really does render your statistics useless. I have mentinoed this to you on numerous occasions, and in one instance you even changed to the model that every single other "top 10" list uses! Why have you changed back? Yet again you have asked for a top 5 where 5 is the best and 1 is the worst. Simply list your top 5 with 5 points for your favourite and one for your least favourite and we'll do the rest.Īs always your thoughts may appear in the final issue (127). People keep asking for PlayStation content, so we're going to do a top 25 as voted by readers.
