A note on ratings

I’m basically using the ‘Netflix Rating System’ because I rated about five thousand movies over there and got used to the system.  I make no argument that it’s the best, just that it’s what I’m using.  The only difference is that I allow myself half stars…which I wish Netflix could figure out as well :)

5.0 Stars – I love it.  Nearly, if not completely perfect.  I want to marry this work, or at least spend a naughty afternoon alone with it.

4.5 Stars – I love it.  A few flaws but of the absolute highest and best caliber.  I’m probably pissed I didn’t think of this first and do it myself (though I probably couldn’t have done it as well).

4.0 Stars – I really really like it.  A wonderful piece of work – well above average.

3.5 Stars – I really like it, but couldn’t quite love it.  The work has some problems overall, but I’m still probably a little jealous.

3.0 Stars – I like it.  Nice work, has a few problems but it’s good overall.

2.5 Stars – I didn’t like it.  It’s below average, let’s not talk about it anymore, okay?

2.0 Stars – I really didn’t like it.  It’s way below average.  Probably you shouldn’t bother with it, if you value your time and sanity.

1.5 Stars - I really actively dislike this.  It’s WAY below average.  Don’t waste your valuable time…this work can actually HURT you rather than the help you.

1.0 Stars – I hated this.  If you ask me about it I will rant and rave about how bad it is

0.0 Stars – I hated this so much if you talk to me about it I may cut you
