I picked 10. Hey, how about putting a disclaimer on the EM list, spelling out the disparity since ems are respectivley 'fewer and farther between' in comparison. That would give the casual observer (noob) a barometer of sorts. Give the spiel about production numbers and their relevance to the list, and tell them to read reviews of pins they are considering vs the ratings. That would be a good service to new pin folk.

Edit-should leave it at 3-5 after reading others opinions.

Quoted from EMsInKC:

What's your problem with Ding Dong? I own it, I think it's a really good game, and I'm certainly not a nut.

I think you're a nut. A good nut though, since you're all about ems . Don't get too serious here knocking games and play, that belongs next door. The EM hangout should be/and was a real chill place.
*my apologies for being rude, but you don't have to dislike something to like another. You can just like what you like. Positive energy.

I voted for 10, but wish to take it back after further review. 3-5 would be the sweet spot I think. 10 would just relegate too many winners to the bottom for eternity.

People should be encouraged to rate games AND give a review. Minimum amount of reviews needed 3-5. Nothing's perfect, but not reviewing games isn't the answer imo.

Quoted from Wickerman2:

The wait is killing me to see if The Wiggler finally gets knocked off the top spot that it's held for 1 consecutive week(s). Just a few more hours...

It's Wiggled its way into everyone's heart now. I bet it stays #1

Should the 2 and 4 player versions be combined? Ex Surfer / Surf Champ.

The Em top 100 doesn't show anything past that. All things considered...I think all games with 3 or more ratings should be listed (although I understand it may not fill a second page/list) and that ALL games that have at least one rating (1-2) should be put at the bottom of this list with the the indicator that they need more ratings/reviews.

There is a game stuck with 2 reviews, yet I see 9 Pinside owners listed. That's 9 owners here, let alone the folks who may have owned and played previously. Without being on a list...they kinda just disappear off the radar. I believe the EM list needs a little kickstart and this may help with the visibility of many.

This is revenge for the Wiggler, isn't it?
