I saw a couple WTFs about the ranking algorithm. Here's how it works

Your vote counts as 1/positon

So if MGS was in your 1 spot it would get 1 vote. If it was in your 2 spot it would get 1/2 vote (or .5), 3, 1/3 (.33) etc. etc.

That's it.

We can release a raw CSV of the votes once I can anonymize it properly.
