Title: Geek Critique Ratings Scale Change
Post by: SenorPablo on 10/07/2019 06:01 PM
Hi Folks.  Just a heads up that we are going to be adjusting the points scoring scale on a couple of attributes of the Geek Critiques for new ones going forward.  Several members have asked for this and I think it makes sense.  Specifically, we will be putting less emphasis on the Pre-Light score and more on the Flavor.  The other 2 scores (Light & Burn and Construction) will remain the same.  Old Critiques will not be adjusted and will reflect their scores as they were when they were entered.  New Critiques will now be based on this new scoring scale.

To summarize:
* Pre-Light is moving from 20 points to 10 points.
* Lighting and Burn will remain the same at 15 points.
* Construction will remain the same at 30 points.
* Flavor and Aroma is moving from 35 points to 45 points.

Cheers!
-Paul

I just noticed a problem with this change.

Now, some reviews have nonsensical statements such as: "Pre-Light: 16 Points of 10 Possible"

Eh... not really a problem unless the total changes.  I think thats actually a useful way of memorializing that review was scored before the scoring system changed.
