iamjtr brought up a good idea. We could rate the candy 1-10 and then collectively count the results to order a full list of candy favorite to least favorite.

This is actually a great idea because say we do it by the already established tiers. We can compare the results from rating to how they ended up in the +/-. Then all the candy will be combined for one big list to see where they'd fall regardless of tier. It's brilliant really. Thanks iamjtr, I support your idea.

Rate the following on a scale of 1-10 :

Butterfinger -
Kit Kat -
M&Ms (Peanut) -
M&Ms (Plain) -
Payday -
Reese's PB Cup -
Skittles -
Snickers -
Swedish Fish -
Twix -

Not a ranking or in order, just how you feel per candy. 1 being hate it, 5 being average, 10 being love it.

Re: Best Candy +/-
 
Are we allowed to give two candies the same ranking?

:lol I was wondering what the hell the word was supposed to be. I was like "Japan doesn't fit, but what the hell else could it be" :lol

Thanks Kittens, your support has lead to Best Candy 1-10. We need an overwatch to tally all the votes and keep track, and either a time limit or maximum voting quota though. Should we new thread this? It seems weird to just start throwing up votes.

EDIT: Nevermind, I guess were just going into to it. Still need overwatch/limit.

I think at least 20 ratings are needed. That should be super easy to meat.

Thanks. There's nothing I love more than assigning trivial numerical values to things.

I'd say put a 'n/a'. It wont mess with the ratings.

No it would be a none vote in essence.

jrod what do you think??

Rebecca De Mornay 04-03-2012 07:08 PM

Re: Best Candy +/-
 
Is 1 or 10 the highest?

No, it just doesn't add to the net and then you divide by "total submissions - n/a's". A 0 would be counted as a submission.
