New Scoring System

After much consideration, and also burger eating, I have come to realize that my scoring system is a bit inadequate. Not so much that a numerical rating out of 5 is inadequate, but rather my own perception of the scores.

It turns out that there are a lot of medicore-to-pretty good burgers out there, and since any thing less than 50%, in this case 2.5 pickles out of 5, sounds like a failing grade to me, I was handing out a whole lotta 3's and 4's, and really not making any distinction between the burgers.

I have, therefore, decided on the following scoring system:

0 - terrible
1 - meh
2 - decent
3 - good
4 - excellent
5 - fan-freakin-tastic

Half points to be awarded as necessary.

Happy eating!
Anne

ps - I have retro-graded the existing posts, in case anyone was worried about unfair comparisons, a la the SAT scoring fiasco(s).
