For ratings I use a logarithmic scale where the distance between 4 and 5 is half the distance as that between 5 and 6 and that distance in turn is half that between 6 and 7 etc.
a portion of the logarithmic scale
Here are the other labels that I attach to my ratings:
- avoid at all costs [1-3]
- skip this one [3-5]
- unrealized potential [3-8]
- looked like fun [4+]
- worth experiencing [5-7]
- recommended [6-7]
- highly recommended [8-9]
- visceral [8-10]
- simply excellent [9-10]
Feel free to question me if you don’t think everything is self-explanatory.
