How's your shoulder? Apart from being broken in 3 places. Still in pain? I don't suppose you can drive at the moment-take the opportunity to take Mrs Munky out as much as you can. She'll have to drive and you can get pissed. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=594#post-1666 Mon, 08 Mar 2010 20:54:56 +0000 PluckyMunky 1666@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>ha!

There also may be a visit to Cardiff during the alcohol famine of 2312. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=594#post-1662 Mon, 08 Mar 2010 20:49:26 +0000 ramblesid 1662@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Surely it's a matter of whether a reader just doesn't bother to vote or purposely gives a mark of 0 after due consideration. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=594#post-1661 Mon, 08 Mar 2010 20:44:31 +0000 PluckyMunky 1661@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>i think you are right messrs gor and will. sorry. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=594#post-1660 Mon, 08 Mar 2010 20:41:20 +0000 PluckyMunky 1660@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>i'm not sure now... a rating scale must begin with '1' and the lack of a rating (or a failure to score it) is indicated by the lack of a mark ('0'). sorry, mr gor, i think i am wrong in the previous message. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=594#post-1656 Mon, 08 Mar 2010 20:36:11 +0000 virtuallywill 1656@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>However you cannot score 0, and only whole numbers can be used,so the lowest score could only be 1. Unless it gathers a no score, which isn't the same as 0.<br /> It's the difference between a lottery ticket that does not have the winning numbers and one that has not been checked.<br /> In my opinion. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=594#post-1653 Mon, 08 Mar 2010 20:28:38 +0000 PluckyMunky 1653@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>i'm not very good with numbers, but i would have thought 0 was a score. in an examination, it is possible to mark a student's work at 0. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=594#post-1643 Mon, 08 Mar 2010 18:05:29 +0000 edward hack 1643@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>what about if you end up with 0 - does that count as a vote </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=594#post-1641 Mon, 08 Mar 2010 17:36:59 +0000 malgor 1641@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Anyway, it's not 0-5 (that would need six stars). It's *Poor, **Works, ***Good, ****Great and *****Fantastic! which are clearly objective measures. People should read and think before voting. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=594#post-1637 Mon, 08 Mar 2010 17:25:34 +0000 editor 1637@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>That's because Iceland voted not to give us half the stars back. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=594#post-1630 Mon, 08 Mar 2010 17:10:06 +0000 PluckyMunky 1630@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>thanks mr nice admin gentleman. it must be difficult, i spose. the range used to be 0-10 and is now 0-5. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=594#post-1611 Mon, 08 Mar 2010 15:28:39 +0000 dominic 1611@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>hehe - sorry for the disruption while I try and get this thing working... </p> <p>We need more votes! </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=594#post-1609 Mon, 08 Mar 2010 14:43:49 +0000 PluckyMunky 1609@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>but the new star sytem doesn't seem to be very discriminating. people tend to end up with 5s or nothing. nice to see it back, tho and thanks to mr editor and ms nice admin lady. </p>
