A table of all HB members ranked by the popularity of their ideas. Members with the most 2.5 bun ideas first followed by most 2 bun ideas etc. all the way down to most 2.5fish.
I'm sure this must have been suggested before but I didn't find it.

Redundant with linked idea. Which I no longer think is good or interesting. [bungston, May 14 2009]

a) It's not a competition
b) I lost lots of votes on my ideas in the Great HalfBakery Disk Crash of 2004 |

//I lost lots of votes on my ideas in the Great HalfBakery Disk Crash of 2004//
<Extreme Sarcasm> Yeah, riiiiight. </ES> |
|
| |
I lost 2 incarnations, at least 100 ideas, several
trillion dollars, and my way after the "Great Crash". |
|
| |
What the hell has buns and fishbones got to do with idea quality!? |
|
| |
what [Jinbish] said!
quality is in the eye of the beholder (not the bunholder!) |
|
| |
I was Spartacus before the Great Crash. |
|
| |
well *love* is a bit strong. |
|
| |
Yeah, more like *awe* - as in 'shock and awe'. |
|

Vagina jam is literally a work of art. Its purpose is to elicit fishbones, which would smell rather like the idea. I didn't delete "humane cow explosion" because it collected so many fishbones it made it special. |

I get the general vibe of these annotations, they are much as I had expected. But I gotta ask, in that case why have ratings at all? We have a list of top ideas, is it such a stretch for a list of top bakers? |
|
| |
its about ideas not USERS. |
|
| |
Why not make them anonymous then? |
|
| |
but we like to meet up and drink beer, silly! |
|
| |
package deal. you get the po, with the bliss, with
the jin and a cloud and ideas emerge. |
|
| |
There is only a slight correlation between the quality of an idea and the quantity of buns and bones it recieves. Stupid ideas often get lots of buns while sensible ideas get harsh criticism. And the number of people who even look at your idea is variable. It would be meaningless. |
|
| |
Did you mean y'all? I would guess that the rating system exists as a form of satire and as a form of creative expression, to coin a phrase. |
|
| |
A bit like "Who's line is it anyway?" point system? |
|
| |
//its about ideas not USERS//
//Why not make them anonymous then?//
What? The ideas?
"Hey, I've got this great idea but I can't tell you what it is because I have to keep it anonymous!".
Nah! Wouldn't work. |
|
| |
it would take some time, but one could cluster even anonymously posted ideas by length, content, semantics, syntax, lack or overabundance of commas. Consider identfying [Vernon]'s or [beanangels]'s ideas or [21_Quest]'s annos... |
