can someone please check if that range still is available? for me, the allowed range is 10-50% only.

I had the 3-50% range and dropped it to 3% to confirm it works and I'll leave it like that for a while for the laugh!

Not sure why you don't have the option so maybe raise it as a bug?

Perhaps because he has so few rankings?

3% of 66 is, like, 2.

Wait, what? livelove hasn't rated anything in like four years? I guess that explains the eighty threads about how hard he finds it to rate things

A perfect demonstration of a logical fallacy. Also, if one has the option of asking someone to find out the truth, it's always better to do that than to construct hypotheses which can (and are in these case) false.

I have >2000 ratings.
Obviously, I cannot import them to Criticker, because after all these years Criticker still lacks an import tool.

I'm glad you are so good at everything, that's very impressive.

yes, I think that's probably the reason

I didn't ask because it was a joke. I apologize. I dislike myself, I lash out, I hide in trees

I expected you had another account or something, but it is kind of insane that someone who has spent so much time and effort on Criticker for years hasn't taken an hour or two to put those ratings in by hand

This is way funnier than what I wrote, though. Respect

As a matter of principle, I would not do it, even if it took only 10 minutes, because you have to multiply this amount of time by the number of users (thousands), who would need to do manually for what there should have been an import tool many, many years ago. Actually there already is an import tool. It would just have to be modified to allow the whole Criticker range (0-100), not just the 1-10 range. It's beyond me, why this small effort has not been made.

But anyway, it's not 10 minutes. Far from it. Assuming 30 seconds (and that's not even realistic as an average value in the long run) to search and identify the correct film on Criticker, lookup my rating and input the score, it would take 17 hours. Realistically speaking, it would take much longer, (especially if you want to be careful not to confuse namesake films, etc.). I think, it would take a few days of full-time work.
