[quote=Mowen]If you instituted number 1, then voting influx would drop like a rock. We want more votes not less. More votes = more accuracy.[/quote]

[quote=MasterShorty]DUDE YES! I have to agree that most of the top guides are not the best. Just look to my "Wriggles, always Wriggles" forum thread.[/quote]

[quote=Mooninites][quote=Mowen] More votes = more accuracy. [/quote] i dont think this is necessarily true[/quote]

[quote=Mowen]It's true. ;) It's like with research... larger sample size = more accuracy. More data means you can better reflect the general populace's opinion, and the score stops fluctuating as much when you have more votes.[/quote]

[quote=Crows foot][quote=Mooninites] [quote=Mowen] More votes = more accuracy. [/quote] i dont think this is necessarily true [/quote] Statistically it is. But that doesn't mean it will hit well on every guide. But I can't help but think that if you cull some out you might get better accuracy. Problem is that my way of thinking is elitistic since I don't count every vote as equal worth ;p[/quote]

[quote=EvilDice]i would rather have 5 pros vote on a guide than 1000 noobs if thats what you're getting at here[/quote]

[quote=Crows foot]Because it is easy to say that statistical accuracy is fair and quality accuracy is a result created to appease someone. Basically saying that before qualitative accuracy can be better than statistical accuracy we need to agree what attributes in a voter means a quality vote ;)[/quote]
