I think this is a great idea as well, although I will admit to voting a bunch of 10s and 1s (mostly 10s) because those are the games I feel most strongly about. I mean, I could go and vote 3s for games like StarFox Adventures, but it's more fun to vote 10 for Castlevania: Symphony of the Night.

Well we all have strong feelings for certain games, but this will cause us to rethink if that game really deserves a 10. If everyone sees that you hand out 10's like nothing, then it will reflect upon you, and some people may not respect your opinions as much. When everyone sees that you vote a 10 everytime, you 2nd think giving a 10, because you want to save it for those special games that actually deserve a 10. It's hard to take someone seriously if they just hand out strictly 10's and 1's. By making votes public, it will cause people to take voting a little more serious, help prevent blatant abuse of the voting system, and of course, it will provide a means for us to see each others tastes in gaming!

No, I totally agree, we should put this in people's profiles, as I said it's a great idea.  But I also wanted to explain how perhaps someone could legitimately have voted only high/low stuff.  I really don't rate a lot of games 10s (especially more modern games), but I tend to vote for them since I want to credit them.
