Star ratings are included to provide a sense of degree more than anything else, but in general my star ratings tend to be a bell curve with perhaps a little heavier distribution on the front tail (lower rated matches) than on the other end (all-time classics).  I made a huge list of everything I watched and it was interesting to see that most fell in that slightly below/average/slightly above ** – *** range.  That feels right to me, however, since the vast majority of current matches I watch leave me thinking “that was fine”; nothing more or less.   I am not dead set on the order yet, but I think the top 10 is pretty close.
