Hey, I think that tileset was quite good. Maybe not equal to Agama's in quality, but it certainly had enough interesting stuff to look at, something most tilesets lack. I personally prefer tilesets with great eyecandy over tilesets with great platforms, and I grade heavily on creativity. The creator used a common theme, but took a unique approach to it, which in my opinion is much better than someone doing a crappy job at an underused idea. While I might grade heavily on creativity and eyecandy, someone else might grade heavily on backgrounds and pallete quality. Everyone grades differently, and that's why the scores are averaged. If everyone had the same opinion, we'd only need one reviewer. But since we all have different preferences and opinions, our ratings are evened out.
Some people do over rate. I recall someone complaining about how a level had bad gameplay and had stolen their idea, then gave it an 8. Any rating should be allowed, as long as the person can justify it in the review. I've seen some sites where people will post a review "it sux" and give a 1 to something rated a 9. J20 is heavily moderated to remove such reviews, but a review can not be removed or declared "unfair" simply because it isn't the same as every other review.
