*Scores are based on BoardGameGeeks' 'BGG Rating'. The BGG Rating is based on the Average Rating, but the number is altered. To prevent games with relatively few votes climbing to the top of the BGG Ranks, artificial "dummy" votes are added to the User Ratings. These votes are currently thought to be 100 votes equal to the mid-range of the voting scale: 5.5, but the actual algorithm is kept secret to avoid manipulation.
