Blueys star system - 3 or 5 stars?	20-Jan-2010 At 10:10:36 PM	Gareth

I'm re-posting this. It's in the BM's guide feedback thread but is relevant here. 5 is kind of like adding "half stars" in between on a 3 star system. Sounds dumb to me. "That one is 2 and a half stars out of 3". Using 3 stars gives you 4 increments (0,1,2,3). Do you really need 6 increments for quality? Why not go to 10 stars? To me glancing through a guide with 5 stars, the 3,4 and 5 star routes all just register as "lots of stars", whereas with a 3 star system the 3 star routes really stand out, which is what you want I think.
