With the software at such a early stage, the ratings are kind of meaningless at this point. That's why I never rate games with early code.

I understand why some people don't rate newly released pins...I was just curious why the results of the 18 people who did rate it, aren't showing up on the top 100 list. Unless something has changed, I thought 15 ratings was all that was needed to be listed. I do realize that Sunday is when the top 100 list is updated...but I'm pretty sure there were more than 15 before the Sunday update. It's not a big deal because I know it will eventually be listed...just trying to satsify my curiousity. Thanks for any insight.
So apparently if you don't think metallica is the best pin to date you're a hater... umm okay. If 18 people voted and it overtook MM would it be the best pin? No. I don't know how many people rated MM but I'm sure its much more than 18. I'm not gonna take the word over 18 people but I will when its 100s to 1000s.
Oh and if you enjoy metallica then why give a shit about the ratings?

It's not listed yet because there weren't 15 ratings the last time the votes were counted up on Sunday. It will be #1 this coming Monday and will stay there for a week until it is voted down the following week. Same as every other new pin release on this site.
Quoted from eggbert52:I wish there was an option 5 which would read:
I'm so freaking confused about this thread that not only did I not know how to vote, I had no idea what the purpose of the thread was.

Good God people...lighten up...it was only a "tongue in cheek" poll.
Quoted from thunderking50:Cool topic...bla bla bla and bla bla
It's not okay to ask a pinball question on here anymore? But it's okay to ask, "What kind of cereal do you like"? Seriously?
Quoted from ZippyThePinhead:Seriously?
No doubt, cmon guys, Cerealously.
I finally got to play the Metallica Pro today!

Bingo. Although, as each new pin passes MM the backlash against them gets less and less. When Tron LE passed it (was first to do so) that sucker almost dropped out of the top 100. Heck, the pro still outranks the LE due to the down voting Tron had.
That said, you will get some down voting when it hits number one. No question.

At least someone has a sense of humor around here...
Quoted from TigerLaw:Heck, the pro still outranks the LE due to the down voting Tron had.
Thats because TRON pro is just simply a better machine, check the rankings. 
FYI its Crackling Oat Bran! tumblr_m9eedq90J81resikxo1_500.jpg
This isn't that hard of a puzzle. The ratings are compounded and resisted on Sunday night. As of last Sunday there weren't enough ratings to list it. Now there are. It will show up this Sunday/Monday.
Quoted from gweempose:I'm going to downvote the crap out of Metallica. It makes me feel like I have a bigger dick.
So you are saying thats you on the left in the crackling oat pic?

Quoted from gambit3113:This machine deserves a top 15 rating. But, then again, TRON LE deserves a top 10 rating.
Tron LE is the shiznit!!
This week's rankings are in...Metallica Premium/LE is still not listed in the "Top 100" with 22 approved ratings. There's obviously a glitch or something going on with Pinside's rankings...who knows, there might even be a small amount of reality in what was originally intended as a "tongue in cheek" poll...

The rankings don't update till about 6am cst even though they say they have updated at midnight. At least that is how it normally goes.

That's strange...but good to know... 
Metallica is Great news for Stern !
it looks to be the 5th Stern title to grace Pinsides top 10
what a top effort
Congrats to Stern,
bring on SR's Star Trek
and a team that has an interest and passion for Iron Maiden
with Bruce and the bands support
I believe Stern will dominate the top ten, Wow !
Why do people overrate a game when it first comes out, pumping the game immediately does nothing for it. Now it's #1 and will get a ton of crappy ratings so haters can hate. If it would have made its debut in the 15-20 range even it would likely end up where it belongs, now it will get destroyed for awhile. It's been said before, a new game should not appear in the ratings until it has 50-100 ratings

Honestly I wouldn't worry about the ratings. So much has changed over the last year or so. It seems with WoZ also came a war. A war of love and hate. I know its always been there but not like this! Things have gotten so personal over the past year its crazy! Mine is better than yours. Don't mess with WoZ or your MOP is a gone'r. Crap on my ACDC and your going down. MET Pro is awesome but MoPLE has issues. MoPLE is the next ACDC times 2. Have I missed anything? The rating system (unfortunately) has become a weapon in the latest pinball wars. Nothing is as it seems. Believe half of what you see and nothing of what you hear... never before has 'play it for yourself before judging' meant so much!
Ok, let's continue the war... time for Rome (MoPLE) to crumble.
