First, there is only 10 different rating levels with stars, 20-80 has 13. I would love a 2-8 scale as that would only have 7 different levels. I like fewer rating levels for two reasons. One, too many levels clog up the development reports. I dont care that player A has improved from 40 to 45 when nothing else has changed. Two, I like more uncertainty in the ratings.

Another reason for going back to stars is that I don't like how the overall columns do not shrink. They stay the same width as they do for the stars. It's a minor cosmetic thing, but it annoys me.

Last reason, I think the star changes are easier to follow in the development reports for some reason. It'll say something like "changed from 1.5 to 2.5 stars", but the 20-80 is like "30/80 to 35/80". The "80" makes it harder to quickly see what's changing


I am with you on this...I'd love to see an overall rating scale for 2-8 also!!
