Basically, I took the ratings and multiplied them by their score (so 7 7's on a storygame is 49, a storygame with 4 7's and 3 8's is 52 because 7x4 is 28 and 8x3 is 24) and then divided it by the number of ratings to get the actual rating of the storygame, here are the results of every game on the site rated 7 or higher to three decimal places:

OMS: 7.551
The Devils Fire: 7.138
Necromancer: 7.051
Mommy: 7.003

Here is the amount a storygame moves up if we remove the votes under 4. Basically, we can tell which storygame is the most unfairly rated since none of the storygames on this list could be lower than a 4, period.

The stories near the top of this list are being targeted by assholes and I'd like to know why. (Also, the fact that all of the numbers are positive indicates that they are ALL receiving at least 1 unfair vote.)

LOL.

I can't for the life of me see how DZD 3, Vengeance, Paradise Violated, Mommy, Necromancer or Death Song are on this list.

Cryptode could be because of that end-of-the-game bug that might frustrate someone into leaving a stupid rating. (Best I can come up with...)

Love Sick... hahahaha

Mattias could be a personal thing against me since I made like 50 kajillion e-enemies back in the day cuz I'm cool like that.

Ground Zero has big paragraphs..?

Apotheosis out ;)

By golly, I forgot the EE games. Oh well :P

"...Endmaster is the most hated..."

Hell yeah!

But damn, that is a lot of calculation. It certainly does remind me of something Apoth would do back at IS. Sort of interesting to see all the ratings broken down like that. I saw Love SICK pop up in the 7 range before, but it got bumped back down to 6, someone (or a couple of people) must've bumped it back up recently.

I'm glad it's a seven, that's exactly where it should be imo. I created a macro to do the calculation for me (I just had to copy and paste the ratings into an Excel doc) but it was at like 2 AM or something, and I can't believe I forgot the EE games, lol. Kinda ruins it, but I'm too lazy to go and fuck with all those posts since there's no edit feature..

Good God, man... "slow down, professor!"  ... I shouldn't have read all this after an entire graveyard shift at the rehab center, so I blame in part the fact that my brain was already exploding from all the paperwork crap I had to deal with last night, but.... the fuck did I just read, anyway? 0.o I mean, I get it, I... am fairly sure, but still... >_> ....? You took the time to calculate how fair the scores was of several games. I dunno whether to walk away slowly in horror or bow to your nerdiness.

Now do it for EVERY SINGLE STORYGAME.
