In a way it is, in the percentage scoring, if there were 7 answers that appeared on the board, the top answer was probably only worth about 30 something points. That would now be worth 7 points. If a board had 3 answers appear, it used to be around 60 points, now that would only be worth 3 points because there were not a lot of other answers, the answers were to obvious or easy, which makes them less valuable in this scoring.
Math sux!

I don't have to do math now.
Simple rankings. This one should go faster since I don't have to convert 250+ answers into a percent.
