[v20140007] Storygame shows incorrect rating

12 years ago

I just replayed Braak the Briton (Redux Edition) after previously having played it in 2006. My old rating for the storygame was 5, but after playing it just then I gave it a 6.

When I view the storygame page, the information sidebar tells me "your rating: 5" even though I just rated the storygame a 6. I rated it multiple times to confirm that I didn't just click the wrong rating by accident. I also viewed the page while logged in on Chrome's Incognito mode to make sure it wasn't a problem with cookies or something and nothing changed.

I believe the system locks you into 1 rating (your first) to prevent multi-rating of a game.

On the storygame rating page, it tells me this:

"October, the last time you rated this game, you gave it 6 - it's worth every cent. Feel free to change your mind or give it the same rating. Only your latest rating is counted."

So the system appears to have taken in my most recent rating (as the comment screen tells me I've rated it a 6), but the storygame page tells me I've rated it a 5.

Thanks for the link. I skimmed over that thread just before posting this bug and saw the massive "Server Error in '/' Application" text and figured it was a different bug. Should have read the thread more closely.

I do note that it does add your newest rating to the list of ratings though, so it is calculating it. I confirmed this by re-rating a game on the edge of two rates and my new rating pushed it from the one to the other, even though as you've said it still says I gave it the original rating.

Correct. I've got some ratings from like 2006 that still show on the game properties page. There are some atrocious stories I rated 8's as a 14 year old. But in terms of calculation, your updated rating is used.
