/all is brilliant
and it was even better when it sorted every single story in order of popularity. I only look at QOTW maybe once a day so it helps me see what's popular (in fact it should really be called /popular like the other boards).

Winning by pimping a story would result in a rather hollow victory, so fuck it. Let the shameless pimp away and be judged for it afterwards. I've yet to see a pimped story in the newsletter...

A better system would be a thumbs-up/thumbs-down button, like on Sickipedia. All voting systems can be manipulated though.

EDIT: also..

Aren't you a little 'fresh' to be rocking the boat?

When I see people pimiping for votes as a result of seeing where they are on
the all function it just got my heckles up. Maybe because I'm fresh I can see when something's a bit off better? Fuck knows.

Once, that's happened and it's made a difference to the final result.
The guy in question won because he was smarter than the other dude. And his post was better. I clicked both the top two, incidentally.

Do you think we should get rid of the Popular list on the Image Challenge for the same reason?

Also: I call meat puppet.
