mad5226 Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 I know there was a thread in the past, but I can't seem to locate it. Would somone be so kind as to direct me to the thread that had all the grade info on it. The one that tells you what percentage corrispondes with what grade in both overness and skill level. Thanks!

Sensai of Mattitude Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 Adam, are all of the grade boundaries the same on 08? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Ryland Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 No idea. I don't see why it would matter given that the grade merely masks the number? If you're going to give someone a 66% does it really matter whether that's a B-, a D or whatever? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mad5226 Posted May 26, 2008 Author Share Posted May 26, 2008 The letter (for me anyway) just helps me get a better idea of where somebody is sitting. For instance if I were going by the numbers I would set someone to 50 saying they are average at a certain skill then he would end up having a D and sucking. It's about the perception Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D-Lyrium Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 I think you just proved Adam's point. D *is* 'average'. It's exactly half way between the best and worst, isn't that the very definition of average? 'D' doesn't suck. If you're getting D show ratings, and they're not improving your popularity, that makes you a Cult promotion*, and at that point you *should* be doing better than average! [size=1](* yeah, yeah, so technically you could be at D in one region and continuing to run shows there, thus still be Regional, but that just means you suck at expanding your promotion, or you don't want to, in either case my point still stands :p)[/size] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sensai of Mattitude Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 Fair enough - sometimes I just find it easier to put a grade on somebody out of what, 10-15 grades, rather than an exact number out of 100. Then go to the exact number once I know what the parametres for that grade are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mad5226 Posted May 26, 2008 Author Share Posted May 26, 2008 Damn you and your reasoning =) I guess when I think of "Average" I think of school and immediatly think C. Of course you can't get an E in school so I guess in that sense you are right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a question of scale for me too, when I was playing with Quick Add, seeing 62% in a stat just seemed crummy to me, but when you think of it as a C, it sounds pretty nifty.
