I recently noticed that SAO Episode Polls uses very slightly different language than that of other anime subforum episode polls.
The language is...
10 out of 10: Near Perfect
9 out of 10 : Excellent
8 out of 10 : Very Good
7 out of 10 : Good
6 out of 10 : Average
5 out of 10 : Below Average
4 out of 10 : Poor.
3 out of 10 : Bad
2 out of 10 : Very Bad
1 out of 10 : Torturous
This strikes me as an improvement on the current format of...
Perfect 10
9 out of 10 : Excellent
8 out of 10 : Very Good
7 out of 10 : Good
6 out of 10 : Average
5 out of 10 : Below Average
4 out of 10 : Poor
3 out of 10 : Bad
2 out of 10 : Very Bad
1 out of 10 : Painful
It's only a slight change, mind you, but I think "Torturous" has a stronger and more fitting
Oomph! than "Painful" (for those who thinks an episode was
so bad it actually deserves a "1"), and I also think that many members here rate episodes a 10 even when they don't think it was a downright perfect episode.
So why not standardize the SAO rating system for all episodic/series based rating systems on Anime Suki subforums?
