Curious

I was thinking about this today, and I'm wondering how other folks approach the whole giving things a score out of ten thing.

For me, 5 and 6 tend to be the tipping points. 5 is on the bad side of average, 6 is on the good side, basically just ok. 7 is good, 8 is very good, 9 is pretty awesome, and 10 is near to perfect.

I don't believe in giving 0 or 11, and I only do whole numbers, no .5, as a rule.

So what about you?

PS. I find rating films out fo 5 stars more challenging. i think there is much more room for interpretation between one person's 4 stars and another's, whereas being able to say 7 or 8 is much clearer. If asked to rate out of 5 stars I am much more likely to start giving .5s if I feel I need to clarify.
