Since votes can be split across two adjacent categories, totals for a category are not necessarily integers. TOT shows the total number of votes cast for that movie. SCORE is the average of all of the votes for the movie using the following point scale: Excellent 4 Excellent/Good 3 Good 2 Good/Average 1 Average 0 Average/Poor -1 Poor -2 Poor/Awful -3 Awful -4 These two quantities are given only for those movies with more than 5 votes. The totals line at the bottom shows the distribution of votes among the five categories and the total number of votes cast, along with the average over all votes cast. To submit a vote, simply send me mail at the address below listing each movie you wish to vote for, one to a line, and the vote you give it: Excellent, Good, Average, Poor, Awful. You may split a vote across two adjacent categories-- see below. It would be most helpful if you separate the movie title and your vote with a single tab: E.T. AVERAGE 2001: A Space Odyssey Average/Good etc..... Duplicate votes will be rejected. Movies which have not received any votes for two weeks will be put on the next posting's "EXPIRING" list, like the one above. If a third week passes and the movie has still not received a vote, it is archived and dropped from the list. ---------- Sorry this one is so late this time, but we've had some power problems here this week.
