This is a game we used to play until someone abused it. I'm reviving it now, hoping that individual has long gone bye-bye.

NOTA BENE: As far as we old-timers can figure, this only works on the *old* site, as you'll see when you start hitting links. benj, way down on your to-do list would be to make it this easy to isolate reviews using various sorts under the new regime.

OK, here is a page of 100 reviews of mine with no votes:

http://www.fwxr.com/display.asp?start=13201&id=5154&Mode=reviewer&Sort=2&Rows=100&Dir=1&do=

What you do is read every review on this page -- nobody else has given these curs the slightest cuff -- and then post here to tell me you've done so. Then gimme a link to a similar page of your own unvoted reviews. I promise that I will visit every page thus indicated. [Remember: you have to visit my page FIRST!]

It becomes mania, trust me. And a pox upon the scofflaw who deliberately ruined the first iteration of this game by going back and voting for every 0-vote review s/he could find.

But meanwhile, let's play!

I am unaware that such a game existed before nor am I aware of the identity of the person who ruined it.

But when there's a game, count me in.

demonny, what we need is a link to a page of your 0-vote reviews. You can sort your reviews by Votes, then slap on one of your 0-vote pages. Try again, and I vow to wield the mighty Voting Hammer!

I'm confused then. I think that's what I did- my link directs to my unvoted reviews; I've got less than a hundred of them so it's the first page of my reviews, sorted lowest vote first. Is my link giving you something different?

I'm reading a page from 64 to 28 votes, and I've already voted for most of them. What we need is a blank page of 0-votes. Try sorting for "Unvoted by me."

P.S. If you don't have a whole page of 0-votes, we'll consider 1-votes, etc. Just give us your stragglers!

I've explained this quite a lot of times, but here we go again...

If you don't actively select a direction/order, then it will use the default from your personal settings. Thus, you may see a page that is 0 up, but this is because you have chosen review votes ascending in your settings. You can see that if you click the Review Votes button on your page to make them descending, the U.R.L. gets more complicated, because another parameter is now involved. You then need to click it a second time to make them ascending again but determined as such for everyone, like so, also made unvoted since they're not all 0s.

I don't think anyone 'abused' it. Wasn't there just someone new who was overgenerous and voted for all of the reviews?

As I don't have any 0s, I thought I couldn't enter, but now here you are.

By the way, I don't think anyone 'abused' it. Wasn't there just someone new who was overgenerous and voted for all of the reviews?







Whoever it was (new or old) he/she didn't vote for all of the players. I among others did not lose all of my 0 vote reviews. The selectivity made the whole thing a little odder.

Ah okay, it was just a matter of switching the direction a couple of times... I remember now that's how it used to work, but it's been a while since I've used the old site or anyone has done a voting game.

This should be it.
