The rating system has become nothing more than another weapon in the personal battles that pinball has become. Its hard to really know which ratings are legit and which ones are just a hater trying to get in another jab or uppercut. This is the wild and crazy world of pinball today... and its really quite entertaining! 
Quoted from Whysnow:I am surprised it is at 17 already since I do not see a single basher in the bunch, even though there appears to be a few pumpers pushing the rating up and still a small sample size.
You should know, you certainly know how to manipulate the ratings! WoZ a '10'? You pumper you!
Quoted from Whysnow:Not sure what you are trying to get at Tony, I originally rated WOZ to point out a continuing problem with the ratings and that they are pretty much worthless
Yes and the murder rate in Detroit is pretty horrendous but I wouldn't recommend going there and killing someone to point this out...
The ratings are not even something to worry about anymore. Like I said in another post they are just another weapon in the 'new world order' of pinball. The ratings are used and abused to a point by some. Its hard to figure out what ratings are based strictly on the pin itself and which ones have some personal motive behind them. Pinball has become extremely personal. I can't kick your cat or knock over your garbage can so the next best thing to do with keyboard in hand is to bash your favorite pinball machine... sad really but extremely entertaining at times!
Quoted from iceman44:Your 6.403 rating on Woz would put it at number 258 in the rankings......
Not sure I understand your point? Like I said, why worry about the ratings. They mean nothing. My rating of WoZ shouldn't mean anything to you. You also had a '10' rating on WoZ as well but since removed it. 
Quoted from Erik:I don't agree that software must be near complete to share an opinion. If JJP and Stern decide it's complete enough to put in homes and on location then that's enough to get a rating. Might my opinion change later with new software? Sure, and Pinside allows for changing ratings.
I agree and if your going to give a rating at least make it believable, right ICE?
