NEW RATING SYSTEM?

Greavzyboy · 15 Jul 2003, 13:46

Hello Loafers!

Just a thought I've had...

I post ratings in the "Tyre Tracks" section of the forum quite regularly, and I often find myself giving two songs the same rating out of ten, even though I prefer one to the other.

For Example:

I may give "I'd Lie For You (And That's The Truth)" 9/10 and I also might give "Two Out Of Three Ain't Bad" 9/10, even though I prefer "Two Out Of Three".

I was thinking maybe we score the songs in PERCENTAGES?

That way I could give "I'd Lie For You" 93% and I could give "Two Out Of Three" a whopping 97%

I just feel that because there is so much we have to take into account when giving a score to Meat's songs, we need a wider range of scores to give to each.

Or maybe I have been sitting on my brain again?!

Please tell me what you think, I take criticism well!!

Yours, Greavzyboy

Why not? But my problem is the next. Do I must rewrite the votes? Cause yes I say no. But some members use 9.5 or I saw 9.7 too. We can use that.

Hi White Of High!

I don't think you need to rewrite the votes from scratch. I just thought from now on, we should start scoring songs using percentages.

Let's see what everyone else thinks!

Yours, Greavzyboy

I dissagree. We already had almost every song, so it is a little to late for that. And when you give I'd Lie For You 93%, just give as grade 9,3.

I agree with Michel, no need for percentages, just give a grade.
