Here metacritic should do the same. Discard 10% higher scores and 10% lower scores. So clickbait would not be relevant anymore. (also works for click bait review for giving 10 for a crappy game) |
Except that in sports it's done to help the integrity of an objective competition whereas Metacritic lists points for video games. I mean what would be the benefit to the consumer here? Would marginalizing certain reviews make it any easier to decide?
If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.
