Quoted from PanzerFreak:I think it would be a cool to have multiple "Top 100" ranking lists. One for "Top 100 All Time" that a game can only get on after a year from release (can be reviewed but wouldn't be averaged and put on list until 1 year after release) and a "Top 100" list for each year (Top 100 2017, Top 100 2016, etc).
That's a cool idea ... might diffuse some of the drama and make for more meaningful comparisons.
I wish people wouldn't take the top 100 at all seriously, but any ranking system of any kind on the internet is going to have insecure people obsessing over it and determined to game it.
