Status bar is confusing #256

Closed kmcurry closed 8 years ago

kmcurry commented 8 years ago

As a Voter I don't understand how the status bar works and when it changes multiple times in the middle of the survey I don't know why. I think something wrong happened.

Shouldn't the status bar be just be number of questions divided by answered questions and not change? Then the text about answering at least X questions would be outside the status bar.

What is the reason for it changing?

The progress bar here is intended to show progress towards achieving the next match level, like an experience progress bar in a role playing game.

In this example, there are 5 questions left for the user to answer in order to get a "OK" match level. Once the user has hit that level, the progress bar resets and starts displaying the number of questions remaining to be answered to get to the "GOOD" match level. This continues until the user has hit max level.

I don't know if "experience bars in RPGs" is a thing that the average voter understands, so we can just do what you said.

Let me take it again with that in mind. It also resets when I click a heart, which is not what I expect. I expect it to reset on Next.
