Link to original post: [drupal=1414]Unofficial SWF member voted tier list?[/drupal]

So I was thinking of a way we, the normal members of SWF could collaborate over time to try and make a tier list based on the average of our opinions. this is different to the current SWF tier list, since the results can not be skewed so easily.

My idea is that for each update people will vote for the movement of up to 3 characters to either move up or down 1 position. After enough votes (This will typically be around 15-20 votes), I will tally up the suggested movements and move the characters accordingly. No character can move more than 1 place per update. If 5 people vote falco to move up one place for example while 1 person votes down, he will only move up 1 place in total. After this, ill update the OP with the current values from each day, and people vote again on the new list. No character can be rated higher than 37 or below 1.

This shouldnt be a very succeptible method to skewing since if for example, one person is hell bent on making one character top tier while another bottom by voting +1 and -1 respectively every single day, other members will notice this and would vote that that character move up to defy the trend. For the first few days, I will update this multiple times per day until we see a clear trend forming where we can slow it down.

So for example, people would post in the following format
[character] +1
[character] +1
[character] -1
You could vote either 3 up, 3 down, or any combination. no need to vote for 3, even just 1 character if you really want, just no more than 3. The number of votes allowed is subject to change at any time, I will make it clear when it does.


Do not base your votes off what people above you may have said. If prior to an update, someone puts a character as +1 and the next poster sees that and replies with a -1, this list will go no where. Try to keep your votes as unbiased as possible to the posters above you, and only refer to the current list. thanks :)

I will be monitoring peoples votes. If people repeatedly vote the same characters up or down every single update, I will simply not include that vote. There are 37 characters, try to vote on the shape of the ENTIRE tier list, not just 1 or 2 characters

AND PLEASE, ONLY VOTE 3 CHARACTERS. NOT 3 UP AND 3 DOWN, ONLY 3 IN TOTAL. I WILL ONLY INCLUDE THE FIRST 3 VOTES

Hey shouldn't we do a character rating system instead?

Like SBR vote had you rate a character on a scale of 1-15, then all the results were collated and averaged out.
That might work better, iunno.

That will defeat the purpose of removing skew. since if one person decides to put a few random currently low tiers like ganon and falcon in top tier while leaving the rest in the same place, it would just skew the overall results. this way it will take many iterations (maybe an entire week) to ever see one character jump an entire tier if no one decides to start voting the character down

Is this a Tier List of character effectiveness or a popularity contest? o__O

If it's a popularity contest then I would have voted differently.

Ummm... are we voting based on what the characters are at now, or how we feel they should improve/decrease based on the official tier list?

The reason I ask is because I feel Mario is very overrated, but based on your first post, I couldn't give him +1, since he isn't on par with MK (and Bowser, while I don't feel he's bad, should get - points because he isn't on par with MK or Snake either.).

Where people get NOTHING.
We're making a tier list based on voting. If a characerter needs to go up or is better than another character, it gets a plus one. If the opposite is true it needs a minus one.

This is NOT a popluarity contest.....right Kinzer? XD

Sorry but as much as I love Sonic, it's pretty ******** how at the current standings he's going to the top of the this list.

:sonic: C'mon step it up!

Sonic -1
Bowser -1
Captain Falcon -1

Currently, Snake and MK aren't 1st and 2nd, and Sonic & Bowser are too high. That's needs to change.

I believe Captain Falcon to be the worst in the game at the moment.

I like this idea. ^^
