[QUOTE="Aberzanzorax, post: 4770585, member: 64209"] You are certainly encouraged to fork this thread or start a new one, this WOULD be an interesting read. However, and you are correct that I posed the question in a binary manner, I think that the general consensus in this thread is that all the versions of D&D wouldn't necessarily get a 10. Different people find different editions more or less D&Dish. For me, someone who has read, but never played OD&D, started with 2nd editition, moved on to third with open arms (and found that it mirrored many of the houserules we'd come up with, but that they did it better) and who is not a huge fan of 4e (particularly as D&D) I'd rate it (and others would rate differently, I am sure): OD&D 9, ADND 10, 3rd ed 10, 4th ed 7. I'd rate certain other games, like castles and crusades, around an 8. I'm thinking an anchor point at 5 would be something like d20 modern (same stats, almost zero fluff) or another fantasy game that captures the feel of D&D but has almost none of the mechanics. As far as what a 1 might be, I don't know. Maybe Kill Puppies for Satan? [/QUOTE]
