#rating scale

SO LETS RATE SOME FAKE PLANTS.

Our first contender:

6/10.

Was going to give it a 5/10 for a base line. But it still has a plastic loop from the tag around it.

7/10

This one was kind of short. Love the colors. The picture does not really show it but you. Can tell this thing is plastic from 3 meters away.

7/10

Pretty big, yet somehow increadibly sparse. This thing takes up a whole minecraft meter.

10/10

This guy also has long arms that encourage people to walk around it. But it's big enough to give a good hide and seek spot.

0/10

I made a rating scale for female characters

I might have posted this in the past, but I'll post this again for clarification in regards to upcoming review posts.

When I write reviews, I run on what many would call a 5-Star scale... Here's what each level for me represents:

***** (5 Stars) -- Strongly Recommended -- This is pretty much the highest rating I will give anything that I'm reviewing. It may not be 100% perfect, but it's something that is so great that I can look past the flaws. You may see "Buy It NOW!" as well, but that's in the same class.

**** (4 Stars) -- Recommended -- This rating is for stuff that's mostly good & tend to be the "default" I start with. There might be flaws, but they're typically minor & I'll be able to look past them. You typically won't be disappointed with this rating.

*** (3 Stars) -- Recommended with Reservations -- This "middle of the road" (aka Neutral) rating is generally given to stuff that is typically good, but has some unfortunate flaws (like a deal breaker) in it that could an issue for some. If you go with the proper expectations, you'll likely be OK with this.

** (2 Stars) -- Recommended with SERIOUS Reservations -- This rating is generally given to stuff that has disappointed me a lot (like a fair number of deal breakers), but still has something that keeps it from being irredeemable. There's some good in there, but it's buried underneath a bunch of issues or headaches that only the dedicated person would go after it.

* (1 Star) -- Not Recommended -- This is pretty much the lowest rating I will give anything that I'm reviewing... even if I want to go lower & see "AVOID AT ALL COSTS" as well. This rating means something has so many flaws that you'll easily be disappointed & it's best that you look elsewhere. If something gets this rating, it's practically irredeemable.

For businesses, I usually won't give a rating the first few visits. This is because I'm fairly new to the place & unfamiliar with. Generally around the 3rd visit or later is when I might commit to a review. The only time I may break this personal rule is with a rage-review. Rage-Reviews will always be the lowest rating available (1 Star or worse, as permitted by the rating scale) & will typically be a "Scorched Earth" style review as I'll note every grievance I experienced as the reasons why I will NEVER RETURN to such a place... even if the owners try to entice me otherwise, as I'll burn the bridges in the process (hence "Scorched Earth" style). Such reviews will serve as a personal reminder NEVER to return to a place.

For games, merch, services, food & whatnot... it won't be an immediate or "First Impressions" review, but more of a general experience deal. I'll run through the "honeymoon" phase of getting something new by the time I start writing & post a review.

I know that everything I post here will be MY OPINION & may not properly reflect everything offered, but I'll take my time & due diligence before posting a review.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Rating: 5 out of 5. These are the books that I think about for a long time after I have finished reading them. I will more than likely read them again and I will highly recommend them to anyone who even seems remotely interested. ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Rating: 4 out of 5. These are books that while I may not necessarily read them again, they were still really good reads, and I will be recommending them…

So when I rate a piece of media, it’s out of 10. We all have a vague idea of what the numbers 0-10 mean on that rating scale, but I want to tell you specifically what each of those numbers mean for me so you can better understand what my ratings mean.

10:

Fucking perfect. Mesmerizing. I have nothing but nitpicks, if that. I could rewatch this constantly and not grow tired of it. muah 💖

9:

Really, really fucking good. Just misses perfection. Still mostly nitpicks.

8:

Fantastic. I loved it. I have one or two real criticisms now, and maybe some nitpicks, but I still really love it.

7:

Great. I enjoyed this. There were a few things I didn’t like, but it’s still good.

6:

Good. It’s fine. I probably have a few big problems with it, but nothing that tipped the scales so much that I don’t enjoy it.

5:

Absolutely mediocre. Middle of the road, average.

4:

Below average. Maybe there were some good things and this just wasn’t to my taste, or maybe it was just a bit bad. Not a waste of my time, but if this is part of a series I might not continue with it.

3:

Bad. There might be one or two good things about this, but mostly it was a pain to get through.

2:

Abysmal. I probably wouldn’t finish something if it’s a 2.

1:

Fucking awful. Painful to sit through.

hi, i decided that providing a scale to go along with the review would be helpful and give a general idea of my overall opinions, so you won’t have to read a full review to get my views

there are four categories:

plot

characters

atmosphere

overall “netflix-ness”
