Crowdsourced "grading" of transformations #7

Open EricPostMaster opened 2 years ago

EricPostMaster commented 2 years ago

Let's face it, some of the synopsis transformations are better than others (looking at you, Tarzan). It would be great to have a large corpus of potential movies for people to guess from, but rating those transformations could be a lot of work for one person to do. We could create another page on the app that allows people to "grade" a transformation as either Good, Neutral, or Bad/Unintelligible, and then use that to assign a small weight to the likelihood of that movie coming up in the other experiences on the page.

Note: I would want to have a cap on how good or bad something could be, say 3 points, for example. That way, even if a movie is rated good 100 times, it still only has the weight of 3. This would keep any one movie from taking over and coming up every time.

Another note: If we only have a hundred different movies to choose from, then this wouldn't be a big deal. We really just need it if we have too many movies to manually review and quality control. If we get a large number of movies that are terrible, then the rules probably need to be revised.

I just used Tortus to do this myself and separate them into Good, Okay, and Bad quality groups. I'm still open to this, but it's not necessary for the app to work well.

Didn't mean to close it. I'm not planning to work it, but I thought I'd leave it open so I don't forget the idea.
