In past jams there were usually one or two games that had a very obvious amount of extra effort put into them. I gave them 5's but didn't change any of the other game ratings in relation. This year, the amount of submissions that have had ridiculous amounts of time and talent poured into them is beyond compare. The way I look at it, if I'm giving an equal number of 4's and 5's, I'm doing at least some amount of sorting. Otherwise the only people who would influence the vote will be those who just give full 5's to the one game they like and 1's for everything else.
