Import tool to understand my Tiers?

Wondering how Criticker works, or have a question that doesn't seem to fit under requests or bugs?

Import tool to understand my Tiers?

Post by zappe »

I have a list of 750 movies I want to import from IMDB.
But I wan't to use 1-5 instead of 1-100.

How many movies do I need to enter manually to get the Tiers correct before importing?
I tried with 25 to get Tier 10, 8, 6, 4, 1, but it still messed up the grades.

I've changed in the csv so that the ratings are now 1-5 from IMDB
I assume the tool only looks for column 2 and 9?

Yes, you should be able to modify the file, and it will still work.

About tiers -- it's hard to say, because they're calculated mathematically. The tiers are really "percentiles"... that's why they can look strange, when there's not much variance in rankings.

Alright.
In the meantime I removed everything again and added about 50 manually and the import went pretty much OK after that.
