Sku with highest score 60 38.46%
 
Sku with most reviews 96 61.54%
 
Total:156

I thought the platform with the most reviews would be used.


Isn't that how it's done?

Well damn.  And here was me getting excited that Pokemon X was creeping closer to my prediction.

The platform with the highest Metascore counts.
Luckily BF3 had slightly more reviews on PC than on 360, so I chose to predict the PC version. Though the more I see of BF4 the more I think I should've gone with a 85.

Come now, Pokemon.

I still think it'll end up at 90.

Pffft, wrong.

I've got this one, 88 it is and 88 it will remain.

I added which scores I used for the leaderboards so that you guys know if it's up to date.

There's error in my Nintendo predictions, here they are again:
Pokemon X/Y - 85%
Sonic Lost World - 87%
Wii Party U - 72%
Zelda: A Link Between Worlds - 90%
Mario Party: Island Tour - 76%
Super Mario 3D World - 85%
Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze - 86%

We'll see to that!

By the way people check your predictions to make sure they're right!

Hopefully Y will align with X..

Hmm I'm not sure how Seece will proceed but yeah last year I used the platform with the most reviews unless both versions were within 10 reviews of each other. Then I used the highest score.

Because in some cases it might happen that the highest version has very few reviews in comparison to other versions and that will be a problem.

Hmmm

Also I must be in an alternate universe, I swear the thread you did last year was highest score booty, that's whay I took that choice rather than most reviews!

Using the version with the most reviews makes more sense imo, since more reviews reflect the general consensus better.

I will add a poll and let the people decide. On one hand I agree with you and it's how I use to do it, on the other I asked people to predict with the highest score in mind, not that that may make much difference I guess, all a guessing game afterall.

Nope! lol

I think this should be the proposed methodology: "The scores used for multiplatform titles will be the version with the most reviews, however if the highest scoring SKU is within 10 reviews of the most reviewed version, that score will be used."

It worked well with that last year. I hope everyone is on board!

Quick question, when do you finalize the score for Pokemon? is it the moment the scoreboard changed or after some amount of time? Also will the prediction table be updated with who scored points and who lost points for Pokemon?



TruckOSaurus on 05 October 2013

I vote for the version with the most reviews because that's how we've always done it (and because it would give me a point for Pokémon )



Signature goes here!

Conegamer on 06 October 2013

I vote for whichever one gives me the highest score

(If not, then the most reviews)
