    I mean, really, if it is average do you just not rate it? Or do you go ahead and give it a 3?

      You're right. Why waste all that space on an integer, when we can use a boolean?

        Only on articles - 3 is the new one for the article univoter. The miserable SOBs can vote no longer vote 1 without being identified so they now vote 3.

            Don' worry. I fixed it by giving a 4, thereby bringing the overall score to 3. :cool:

                yes, when half of it is worthy of 5, and half deserves a 1. obviously voting 3 is adding information, much more so than not voting at all. :)

                      I only vote 1 or 5 -- anything in between requires too much thought.

                          :laugh: Should of guessed this would happen. This is like saying you might have a use for a puppy and having 57 dropped on your doorstep. I got all the lonely threes that didn't have a home. Kennel ration time. The question didn't occur to me until I realized I hadn't given anything but 1s and 5s out, then there I was wondering whether the center numbers even meant anything to anyone. Yes a 3 adds information but I suspect people don't care to spend the energy to give that bit of info out. I imagine if one took the site's numbers out and looked at them the bell curve would be inverted.
