I'm not offended by my rating, I only wonder how I can actually rate a negative. It reminds me of that John Madden Hate letter, where the guy complains about getting a zero on the kick return rating. If I am not liked, I think a zero rating would suffice to show it. Basically giving a person a negative means they bring absolutely nothing to the board and negatively impact it. I know some people appreciate my college football threads. :D

Also, for some reason this thread title put "Watching the Detectives" in my head, and now I can't get it out.

I have no idea what this is about, but I'm pretty happy that I fly under the radar enough that I didn't make the list.

Philidot is correct: ratings are arbitrary, in largest measure. That said, I used as my base series

Quote:
1.0 Aural Fixation

0.5 This guy has crack

0.0 PopTodd

-0.5 crutches of destruction

-1.0 4030


& filled in from there.

Wow, I've set the standard for mediocrity!
I always knew that I was special!

Now that I'm rated, I have motivation to become a better poster. I hope to be at least a .3 by the next Montyratings.

I am coming to Belize one of these days and will show up at your restaurant.
You will be surprised.
And so will I because I have no idea when or how the hell we're gonna get there, but we will!

Emboldened names are indicative of late addition.

It might work if I understood what's going on.

I'm easily impressed when I'm not confused.
