I'm gonna make suggestion small change to hype-point calculations.

Do not cound any number 1 and 10 in hype-points. Because in both case these people are manipulating hype-meter in they own purpose. Basicly saying they are liers. Because no game will ever been worth of 10 or 1. So, don't tell anyone that you do it, just drop them from calculations. It would give a lot realistic value for the games. So, 1 and 10 would be just trap for liers. Usually these people just hate or love so blindly something, that they forget what's the point is all about.

In some forums, We found someone registered, publish two posts at almost the same period, and they can hype. That's the rule, lol

So then everyone just votes a 2 or a 9. Same results.

Because that's not how the admins of this site operate. They tell you exactly how things work, and if there are scores for 1 and 10, then they are counted by the site. The meters are not hand counted, they are done automatically by software.

Also, the hype meter is strictly to show how many people are looking forward to the game. If someone is not looking forward to the game for whatever reason, then their vote of 1 is indeed warranted and valid, as is a vote of 10 from someone who can't wait for the game to come out.

Yeah, something like the Hype-Meter ratings would work.
