Writer scores Mike McCready: 341 (Average: 28.4) Jeff Ament: 295 (Average: 26.8) Matt Cameron: 127 (Average: 25.4) Eddie Vedder: 483 (Average: 22.0) Stone Gossard: 304 (Average: 21.7)
I have to say, I have no idea how some of these songs ended up where they did. Comes Then Goes, Buckle Up, Yellow Moon could not be so low if the ranker was working properly. There's just no way.

The placement of River Cross and Retrograde in relative terms also makes no sense. I would expect to see River Cross ranked higher than Retrograde. Buckle Up would be somewhere in between. Comes Then Goes would be in the top 10-12. Not sure what happened here, really.

Tried the Standard Ranker this time and I think the results are more reflective of how I feel about the songs.

Only questionable outcomes are SBWM ending up below Supersonic (what?) and Buckle Up over River Cross (less of an issue with this one; I just think they could switch places).

Some songs feel like they landed in weird spots, but overall this feels pretty good to me.

The Comprehensive Ranker will have you doing SO many comparisons (~1200) that you will either give up or take an age to complete it. Also, I tried it but found that some of the results were wonky. Better to use the Standard Ranker. Takes less time and gives results (mostly) in line with my expectations.

I'm gonna do this again but can someone tell me the difference between the three rankers, and should I do the first one?
Standard Ranker:
* Get a random unranked song * Get a ranked song from the middle of the ranked list. * Compare the two. * If you chose the unranked song, the next comparison is the song mid way through the top half of your rankings. Otherwise, it's the one mid-way through the bottom half of your rankings. * Repeat until unranked song is ranked.
(This is how the original ranker worked years ago)
Comprehensive:
Compare EVERY SINGLE song against EVERY SINGLE other song. Oodles of time. And based on what Release_Me said, probably bugged.
RuddoRank™: No comparisons, just rank every song 1, 0 or -1
Star Rank: No comparisons, just rank every song 0.5 - 5.0, in 0.5 steps.
