As you can guess, the model accurately predicts generally lower ratings for wargames, until you get to the histograms at the end, and maybe the wargamers actually have a little pull after all?

I think as an initial pass thru the data, there's something interesting there. I think what will make it more meaningful is to offer predictive stats of what new games *should* be ranked and then compare 6 months later

Also of note, I didn't see anything about controlling for who designed the game. We know some designers have large fanboy crowds
