It's hard for me to decide if I hate or love you.

Umm love me obviously.
Well I still had the Premiere files for the first version so I only had to change the text.

I was also thinking about the possibility of having the previous pin rankings listed side by side. My only concern is that would potentially help "lock" a pins value, because people would see what it was valued at previously.
As an alternative (and I don't know how hard it would be to program this), have a column showing whether a given pin moved up, down, or stayed static in the rankings compared to the prior day or week or month might be neat.
And for the column displaying the change in placement, that wouldn't be difficult at all in comparison to what dmosinee has already done with Pinmash

Also, if you look at the list, four Lookouts kids take up the bottom four slots, even though they're the same 'fodder' rank as the Crest, so clearly people rate the Crest as being more collectible and desirable as compared to the kids.

OHHHH NOOOO! No you didn't just slag the Piggles?!
It's ON misskass, it is on.
Oh what's that, how did these 5000 negative feedbacks land on your PP account? Why I have no idea.

I'm not sure thats a bad thing by the way, I feel like in some ways its good that it does not show you the details of the pins when you vote, leaves the decision up to the user and whatever knowlege\feelings they may have for them. As we all knew but as was evidenced at the Prime Staff Trading Event, there are way more pin traders then exist on these forums.
I had no idea it was updated, so yay! DSB is now at #8... I'm sure it'll sit comfortably around #2 or #3 in the long run.

This raises a question: Should DLC be put into the rating rotation?
Yes, people on the forums/been around since the beginning still consider it the white whale, but would newer folks revere it in the same way? I'd be interested to see if other rare pins give it a run for the money amongst more recent pin traders.
Pins!
Maybe if they were only judging pins by design?..

To clarify, as a newcomer with some experience pinmash is a great tool to use as a starting point! So thank you for it!
I really like that idea. Yes, it's considered the "holy grail, white whale, etc etc", but it's not just the crazy hardcores who use the site. There are people I'm sure who judge pins by design, cool game, what have you. Most likely it would remain in the top, but it would just be neat to see by how much.

I don't have anything to specifically track that metadata (although I'm partially done with a feature to use GeoIP to try and store users' locations), but I can give you something -- a breakdown of all match-ups by self selected experience level.
Of the 34496 total matchups as of this writing:
6% selected "Casual Collector"
18% Selected "Aspiring Amateur"
38% Selected "Pin Professional"
38% Selected "Pinsane In The Membrane"
Additional data:
There have been 15668 matchups in the last month -- and those break down as 11%, 20%, 47%, and 22% respectively.

In general, I think Pinmash has been a cool experiment -- and it has actually turned up some relevant data that might have gone unnoticed before. For instance, look at how much higher rated the lookouts crest is than any of the kids -- I've seen that reflected on the trade floor many times after I caught it in the pinmash data. That said, maybe it could be more fun and more relevant with some changes. It might capture more useful data if it was setup to ask you the question "If you had spares of both, would you trade A for B?", this could also open the door to evaluating multiple pin trades which is something I've been thinking about.

I think the DLC should be added, just in case there is ever something run at the same rarity or less. A 300 run would be a PA only title, but with Eyrewood Adventures the possibility exists for one at a high tier on a Kickstarter. If 300 are made and then some removed from the Community circulation (game industry "thank you" presents, charity prizes, etc) it might be necessary to see which is more sought after.

Can the detail page about a pins ranking history include its numerical ranking at that time along with the total pins at that point. Something like (234 ranked/370 total pins)
I often find myself looking for individual sets of pins, and trying to figure how they rank against just each other. Would it be possible for sets to have their own pages that showed the rankings of just pins of those sets. Even if it was still the full ranking of 2/389 for Aus Kemper instead of 1/4 when compared to the others of its set, could be interesting. In fact the full ranking might be more useful.
(I admit, I mostly find myself looking for how certain staff are doing in the staff sets, and if no one else would find this useful, might not be worth implementing)
Thanks as always for this great tool.
