You felt mislead in what way? If you thought that the list was a ranking of the which muds are the "best" muds then you were mislead before you even started. It is a listing of which muds send the most people to this site.
People seem to be under the romantic notion that, before it was common knowledge that people used incentives to garner votes, the listing allowed small muds to get the same attention that the larger muds did, through dedication and the will of the players. It is somewhat true, but the uprising of muds using incentives has done nothing to change it. It is the case that more larger pbased muds are using the list now which leaves fewer spots that the small muds can sneak into.
Things that would really skew the results would be when A) players found ways around the 1 vote per 12 hours or B) if the mud recruited votes from outside of the playerbase.
