I noticed that the number of ratings are doubled for RPG items.

If an item has 11 ratings, the main page for the item shows twice as many ratings.

Examples:

Faulkner's Millinery and Miscellanea: main page shows 10 ratings. If you check the ratings page, there are only 5.

Hellfrost Player's Guide: main page shows 22 ratings. If you check the ratings pages, there are only 11.

Cthulhu Invictus (2009 Edition): main page shows 36 ratings. If you check the ratings page, there are only 18.

I checked a few at the RPG and didn't see the same phenomenon.

I know there's a big push to get ranked items, and it takes 5 ratings to rank an item; but is this really the best way to do it?

I hope this isn't what caused us to hit 5000 RPG Items ranked! I noticed a big spike over a week ago.

Devs are aware and looking into it.

Unfortunately that appears to be the case -- look at Grand Survey -- it only has 3 ratings.

Sounds like quite a Fiasco. Also sounds like we need to have a rating drive!

The Ratings/Ranking problem has been fixed. Back to 3600 Rated items.

Other than my little girl squeal at the thought of having reached 5000 items, nothing is worse for the wear!

mb - I Support the RPG Geek Ranking Project. Click me!

is still available and still quite applicable Rate, rate, RATE!
