@ Dzopilant you will see the same score that your readers see, and you don't have a choice between the two. I don't think we'll be changing either of those decisions but, if people have specific concerns about it we can discuss them.

Ty Matt,

For me no concern at all, like I said it was just extra curiosity about a new feature (And i don't see either the point to choose the worse tbh ^^)

After gathering some data with the new "Patch" sorting method, we've decided to go forward with the new guest vote scores. We've now enabled ranking by guest score site-wide. It's implemented as we explained - we calculate your old "members vote" score exactly as we used to, and then separately from that we calculate a new "guests + members vote" score, and we pick the highest of the two for each guide. So many guides will have just seen an increase in their score, and nobody should see a decrease since you will get the better of the two scores. You will also see a sudden increase in vote counts, that is due to the guest votes.

Let us know if you spot any issues or have any questions!

It feels like scores are massively inflated, pretty much every guide seems to have a 100% rating right now. So I tried to log out and downvote a few guides and uh... All my attempts at downvoting are actually upvoting. I tried on both Google Chrome and Internet Explorer and both browsers seem to be incapable of letting me downvote anything. I click the downvote button and go through the Capcha, and once I finish the captcha I get this. I thought it might just be a visual bug but I tested it on a low rating low votes guide and the rating definitely went up when I tried to downvote it.

I asked @ Vicious Skittle to try logged out downvoting a guide and he too could only upvote guides even while pressing the downvote button.

Noticed that too, my guide went from around 120 at a 95% upvote to 348 upvotes with 100% same with fellow guide creators lol
The great thing about multitasking is that several things can go wrong at once.

So what will happen to the "accidental upvotes"? I guess there's no way to tell the intent of the voter, so unless all votes are removed, none can be? Hmmm......

i was wondering why my guide score literally shot up by 100 votes.

this explains a lot. i'd say this is pretty good.

We've discussed it and we decided to wipe all guest votes prior to today to get a fresh start. This doesn't affect member votes or your member score, this is purely the new guest scores.

We were considering wiping guest votes yesterday when we put guest score ranking up so everyone would be starting from the same place, and because of the recent changes to sort by patch, but we decided to wait and see how the launch went. There were some issues with the launch though and that settled it.

We've deleted the guest votes prior to today when we put some fixes up and we're currently running a script to refresh everyone's vote counts and scores, so you'll see things jumping around a bit over the next hour or two while it's all updated.

Sorry for the roller coaster but this should be the end of it :)
