The problem I see here is that you take this feature as a contest, when it's not. This is not about winning or losing, only fools would take it this way, it's about showing what games each one of us care about.

And sure, the bigger the fanbase, the more votes some games will get, but so what? Are you going to buy a game just because a lot of people voted for it? Of course not! But, and here's the fun thing, you may find a game that only one people has voted for, a game that you haven't heard about, and maybe, just maybe, that will pick your interest and push you to find more about this game. And isn't that great?

Not really. I see it as more of a table of contents, that show who votes for what and how many votes go into it, not some "1 winner, everyone else a loser" like you seem to think I see it as. WHen you see the results, they speak for themselves, they don't say "loser/winner", they say "popular/not popular" "bigger/Smaller", and we could even use your view "cared/not cared".

If the data didn't really matter then it wouldn't be worth posting, going by the "so what" logic. Am I going to buy a game based on this site's thread topic about voting for games in an odd order?, no, I buy the games I want when I want. I don't even base my purchases on some meta critic site like some folk do on here (and think highly of it as well). I don't look at these votes, big or small and go "I def gotta try that game", because I don't think the way you do, and I don't try to sprinkle rainbows on it for the sake of happy go lucky feelings.

I find out about games on my own accord, not what a pie chart and data sheet shows me on here. I know what you're trying to do with your pov, but I disagree with it outright, and nothing is going to change that, just like it did not the last time. You don't see things my way, I don't see things your way.
