[QUOTE="Wisdom Penalty, post: 1756074, member: 13287"] [b]story hours - any new ones in the "Top 10"?[/b] if you havent read this thead, it attemps to place story hours in a ranking based on page views, responses, duration, etc. they use two methods of different criteria. the first method spits out these authors as the "Top 10": [b]Piratecat Sepulchrave II Cheiromancer Destan BLACKDIRGE (contact) Old Drew Id Lazybones Capellan barsoomcore[/b] the second ranking spits out these story hours a "Top 10": [b]Piratecat's Updated Story Hour! Piratecat The Mésalliance. Sepulchrave II Sagiro's Story Hour Returns Sagiro Sins of Our Fathers Destan JollyDoc's Shackled City JollyDoc The Liberation of Tenh (contact) Poll: DarkMatter D20: Drunk Southern Girls...jonrog1 Medallions d20 Modern Old Drew Id Pogre's New Story Hour with Mini pics pogre Metamorphosis - From Dretch to Demon Lord[/b] a couple notes - cheiromancer doesn't have a story hour - his thread is a compilation of sepulchrave's story hour. so that, in effect, makes sepulchrave's a solid (but distant) #2 to piratecat. destan's story hour seems entrenched at #3. then it gets a bit random, between both lists, with some entries not appearing on both lists. (it was mentioned earlier in this thread (but bears repeating) that this is by no means a "scientific" way to rank story hours. someone said en world used to have a voting system and took it down just to prevent this sort of needless exercise. this is based on popularity, not, um, "goodness".) so why resurrect this thread? well, for one, i think that numbers don't lie (all that much). readers, like myself, probably get some sort of an idea as to what story hours are the most popular. and popular usually means good. second - and this is really my point - i wonder: do these rankings still stand? have any newcomers busted into the Top 10? Perhaps even the Top 5? some of the names on these lists rarely update anymore. i wonder if this has affected their position. found a new story hour that you think can hang with the big boys? share it with us. time to spread the spotlight.
