Just shouldnt say anything :3

Lapmon's okay with more than half of it, and indifferent to the rest. That's already pretty good.

I would argue 10/10 scores and 5/5 stars aren't the same. Even if you can have halves in the 5/5 score, like in Hummingbird's case, which would make it technically identical to 10/10.

For example, 3/5 is a higher score than 6/10. This might sound weird, but it is as far as I know psychological. It depends on how you process the meaning of the score in your head. Especially since 5/5 scores are often represented visually much more than 10/10 scores, which are more often than not entirely numerical.



I won't rate them because scores don't mean that much anyway, and going meta would have it make even less sense. Some of your shows I heavily disagree with, some I'm happy you liked.

Of course you're here. (It's kind of hard to break the conversation in this thread though.)

Maybe, but this doesn't apply to everyone. I imported my scores from MAL, and as I went and rescored them on Hummingbird, I only made a few half-star changes.

I would say 5/5 and 10/10 are the same. Maybe not 3/5 and 5/10, since 3/5's are generally considered good to some extent while 5/10 is considered mediocre, but 5/5 and 10/10 are the cream of the crop, you can't really go above them.

That said, I think it goes without saying that what the scores mean are subjective. It's that way with any number scale, really. Or any grading system.

The ratings are of course entirely subject to personal opinion. It isn't just a matter of how good the show is, but the feeling invoked in the audience.

Guilty Crown, for example. General opinion is that it's a very bad show. While I agree that the show was poorly done to an extent, I still hold a special feeling for it because of the emotional experience that it gave me.

In any case, a 2.5/5 is the same as a 5/10 for me. Same for any other crazy fraction scheme you might come up with. You could say that I'm mathematically inclined to feel as such.

Are you experienced with working with numbers? It would definitely make a lot of sense if the difference in subjectivity of different score systems had to do with how one's brain handles numbers.

Myself, my mind works very visually (numbers and letters have designated colours, I solve math problems using geometric visualisations (had lots of problems when math assignments asked me to write down how I solved equations), et cetera. There are probably words for these things but I'm not good at remembering words), so that could definitely cause me to view things differently. Even such a supposedly set-in-stone thing as numbers.

I remember watching a Totalbiscuit video where he made a point about different scales in video game review scores, though I can't recall which one. That man has a lot of very similar video game journalism videos.
