I do say this would be the best, most agreeable option, by reading this thread:
Strongly Like | Like | Neutral | Dislike | Strongly Dislike
Well, I'm not sure which side should be "Agree". *shrugs* Then, you have it per a difficulty.
Sorry, but Luigi's idea of a graphical overlay to the 10 star system (clarification? That's what it appears to be, judging by the stars he has underneath the words) wouldn't do much. It might even make it worse. :P Right now, around 8 is average. If the average was lower, then maybe his idea would work. But currently? It wouldn't change any of the problems. Looking at the "bad", it might even *encourage* 1s and 2s. Right now, "bads" are often 4s, 5s, and 6s. 7 is 'eh...'. It's just how the scale has mutated on osu!. Which is part of the problem.
Mappers expect super high ratings on their maps. If they get below an 8, they think people hate their maps. Or many mappers do, at least. I don't think that myself. :P
Judging by the votes, I say this should be brought up at the next community meeting. Then we could have a "for real" vote, since this was just on whether we (AKA peppy) should consider it, and we have a lot of "yes"s compared to "no"s and "maybe"s. So we could discuss it more (AKA peppy could think about it more) at the next community meeting, assuming we have one. This would probably be the biggest topic there... That, and peppy's vacation. TELL US MORE DANG IT ><;
