Shouldn't the amount of times something has been listed contribute in some way to their rank?
Good questions. I wish Trumgottist had, I dunno, posted a link or something about the vote counting method at the beginning of the thread. Hm...

I feel like changing my post to put some silly game that no one else has played at the top just to screw things up. Why? I dunno, spite.
*shrug* Every ranking algorithm can be easily abused in a similar way. But what would you gain from it? It's just for fun - nobody's pretending it will establish the objectively best adventure ever or something.
