So we have a feature on the website which displays the top 10 most popular movies. This is based on how members have voted, out of 10 for each individual movie.
So your votes really do make a difference!
I did want to give a few pointers about voting on the movies. I have noticed that a many members vote most of the movies nearly the same and really high. I have had several emails from members over the the past few months saying that they feel guilty if they rate one movie lower than another! They also say they don't want me to be offended if they rate a movie low.
So I just wanted to give you a few pointers about voting....
It's natural that you are going to enjoy some movies more than others. So in order to vote the movies that you really love highly you have to vote some movies lower. That is perfectly fine and I nver take offence at all.
I actually get to vote on the movies also! So let me tell you how I do it.
I generally give the movies which I think are good, but not my absolutel favourites a rating of 7.
This will then allow me to give the movies which I think are really special a higher rating and saving a 9 or a 10 for my absolute favourites.
Of course that then allows me to rate a movie I am not so keen on a 6 or even lower.....
My suggesiton would be that you all vote in a similar way...
Now, there is one extra feature and this allows you to reset your vote! You will find this button on the individual movie page directly under the word rating on the top left hand side of the page. Oh and just so you are aware, when you press the reset button you wlll get a box appear saying that you have already voted. Simply ignore that leave that movie page and then come back into it and you will find that you can place your vote again!
Have fun and I can't wait to see how the top 10 list chages over the next few weeks!
Cheers!
