I vaguely recall having quite an extensive conservation with felipepepe over I think was the very first poll. Pretty sure we both realised implications of dodge voting but also noted it really only changed the position of a few games here and there. I remember fucking around with a spreadsheet of results quite a bit.

Mind you I also think we explained what we did in the news post too.

Has there been a single poll without discussions about the methodology? So far, Felipe has always explained what he's doing.

I think they're just trolling you, and you're falling for it. Your polls are just fine.

And you shouldn't have made the method public, because now they'll rate some games 2/5 and Disco Elysium will still get a troll's 1/5.

Now how are you gonna detect them? We're fucked now, buddy.
Same thing I was thinking, my esteemed vatnik. The more felipe discusses the methodology, the less reliable the next poll will be.

Doesn't matter as long as DE still won last year. :M

its about strongly linking votes to user accounts and being able to rate every single game.

Yes! ...And, if I may add, also for everyone to see who voted on what game! How else could we single out and mock the

enablers and shills?
