I was able to fix it by adding this to this-or-that.php

$thisthat_query = new WP_Query(array(
‘post_type’ => $posttype,
‘meta_key’ => ‘thisorthat_rating’,
‘meta_type’ => ‘NUMERIC’,
‘orderby’ => ‘thisorthat_rating’,
‘category_name’ => ”,
‘posts_per_page’ => $length,
$taxonomy => $category

));

Bolded is what I added. Fixed.

Figured out what is happening. The query to display the results is wrong. It is ordering it via Alpha I believe, not doing it via numeric count. My low ranking item had a 945 and was at the top. When I reorganized it to be 1000 (still the lowest score) it was then at the bottom. When I put it as 999 it went back to the top again. So the query needs to be adjusted.
