http://tasvideos.org/forum/viewtopic.php?p=342729#342729 According to adelikat, the entertainment cutoff for the vault is 5.7. There are several movies in Vault that have entertainment rating higher than 5.7, for example, Pinball Quest by Aqfaq. Should they be moved?

Vault/Moon border seems to be unmaintainable manually (who currently adjusts it?) Why not make it automatic then? EDIT:

If it's automated, hopefully it won't mess up and accidentally make a playaround (like this) into the vault tier.

Correction. The criterion for initial placement of previously published movies was an entertainment rating cutoff at 5.7. adelikat never said that any rating cutoff criteria are currently enforced or that they should be currently enforced. I compiled a list of the 12 lowest-rated (combined rating) Moon-tier publications: [2349] SG1000 Sega-Galaga "fastest high score" by dwangoAC in 00:47.91 4.7 (6 votes) 4.2E 5.5T [2230] A2600 Phoenix by Lollorcaust in 00:18.15 4.7 (9.5 votes) 4.2E 5.7T [516] SNES F-Zero "first track" by Saturn in 02:22.03 5.0 (43.5 votes) 3.8E 7.1T [1039] NES Tecmo Super Bowl "playaround" by adelikat in 11:05.02 5.0 (28 votes) 4.7E 5.7T [2253] GBC Pocket Bomberman "Jump Game" by Robert_Ordis in 01:51.18 5.0 (5 votes) 4.8E 5.4T [1572] SNES Top Gear 2 by Dooty in 11:50.62 5.2 (14.5 votes) 4.3E 7.2T [1008] GB Kid Dracula by Sir VG in 19:10.83 5.3 (18 votes) 4.7E 6.5T [1355] SNES Ultima: The False Prophet by ketomei in 07:56.07 5.4 (11.5 votes) 4.5E 7.2T [1658] GB Mortal Kombat II "playaround" by AKheon in 09:04.22 5.4 (13 votes) 5.1E 6.2T [2113] SNES Super Putty "all stages" by Dooty in 16:53.17 5.5 (6 votes) 5.3E 6.5T [1975] Arcade The King of Fighters 2001 "playaround" by X2poet in 07:12.25 5.6 (11.5 votes) 5.9E 5.4T [2116] GBA The Wild by TASeditor in 28:39.05 5.7 (6.5 votes) 5.7E 6.0T You may see more here (from bottom of page up): http://tasvideos.org/Movies-Moons-RatingY.html I also compiled a list of the 16 highest-rated (combined rating) Vault-tier publications: (keep in mind that votes may not be representative) [2190] DS Metal Slug 7 by mtvf1 in 21:27.77 7.5 (3 votes) 7.5E 7.6T [2363] SMS Super Boy II by NitroGenesis in 05:55.24 7.2 (4 votes) 7.1E 7.4T [2358] NES Metal Max by suwei in 24:16.57 (1 vote) [2319] GBA Mega Man Battle Network 2 by mtvf1 in 1:38:35.28 7.2 (3 votes) 6.8E 7.8T [2031] GBC Dragon Warrior Monsters (Japan) by tetora_X in 30:36.72 7.1 (3 votes) 6.0E 9.0T [2364] GBC Rockman DX3 by Noxxa in 00:25.40 7.0 (3.5 votes) 7.2E 7.9T [2146] SMS George Foreman's KO Boxing by mike89 in 05:06.13 (1 vote) [853] NES Ghosts 'n Goblins by Arc in 08:23.13 6.9 (28 votes) 6.2E 8.5T [2217] Genesis World of Illusion Starring Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck "2 players" by Mitjitsu in 18:47.73 (1 vote) [2309] GBC Super Mario Bros.

I have to agree that an automatic tier placement is not a good idea. While it would certainly be easier, I think that it's better if the tier of each run is decided on a case-by-case basis.
Keep in mind that there are 68 Star publications, 689 Moon publications, and 469 Vault publications.
I wonder if that's too many moons. If there are too many, it kind of muddles its meaning. (Unless "Moon" is meant to be "your average, run-of-the-mill TAS" and "Vault" is meant to be "those that would otherwise be rejected under the old system." I'm not sure I would agree to that kind of categorization, but that's just my opinion of course.)

I think there's too many stars. Family Feud has one? Are you serious?

Stars are exactly 10% of Moons, that's the quota. However, discussing the worthiness of particular stars is always welcome (in a certain thread).

It has 11th highest entertainment rating among all our publications. And all that are higher are only speed oriented. It does tell something about how worthy it is.

I think the moon-vault ratio will change in the future, so that it will have more vault movies. It's still a new system and as we can see, there are a number of movies that are placed in the wrong tier. So I'm not too worried about it. Oh and keep Family Feud in the stars. It absolutely deserves this spot! It's one of the best non-speed oriented TASes on the site, along with the ISS Deluxe playaround.

Tell me one thing that makes Family Feud stand out. It's just text being entered quickly. Not very outstanding when compared to the rest of the TASes there.

It's ok to disagree with 80 people, it's understood.

So we star runs that are just text being entered. But its okay, as long as it's funny. TASVideos: Funny > everything else.

The tas was using manipulation with the text (also throwing abuse to the viewer). And creating ironic phrases/words within the game.

Entertainment > everything else. That movie had phenomenal reception from the audience. It may not be especially interesting to you, but that doesn't mean it's not star-worthy.

Obsolete Family Feud with an even more funny entertaining TAS and I'll agree with you.

1) this is an inappropiate place to talk about the validity of a star movie, we have a thread dedicated to that. 2) Currently there are no rules regarding a published movie changing from Vault to Moon or back. Such a system has merits. The problem I have with it is that I feel like it invalidates the submission voting system. I worry that there will be little point in people contributing with comments/feedback/votes because we can just publish as a vault and see how it goes. Also, I think the rating system is far from accurate and not as informative as a submission thread + votes in gauging the quality of a movie. I'm on the fence about the issue, and as such have chosen inaction for now.
It's hard to look this good. My TAS projects

I'm moving these 8 publications from Moon to Vault: [2349] SG1000 Sega-Galaga "fastest high score" by dwangoAC in 00:47.91 [2230] A2600 Phoenix by Lollorcaust in 00:18.15 [516] SNES F-Zero "first track" by Saturn in 02:22.03 [1572] SNES Top Gear 2 by Dooty in 11:50.62 [2253] GBC Pocket Bomberman "Jump Game" by Robert_Ordis in 01:51.18 [1008] GB Kid Dracula by Sir VG in 19:10.83 [1355] SNES Ultima: The False Prophet by ketomei in 07:56.07 [2355] SNES Super Bomberman 3 "2 players" by KusogeMan in 25:45.97 (I did the first two already. I'll do the others soon.) I'm still not done. I'm looking at how many movies should be transferred from Moon to Vault or vice versa, and what kind of movies, and when. Also, if you have watched these Moon-tier movies, please have a stop by to give a rating for them: [2335] Genesis Phantasy Star IV "all sidequests, Blast from the Past" by janus in 1:59:10.18 [2381] SNES Metroid Super ZeroMission "101%" by Hoandjzj in 1:19:30.64 [2376] GC Billy Hatcher and the Giant Egg "all levels" by STBM & iongravirei in 2:38:33.47 [2347] NES Solstice: The Quest for the Staff of Demnos "100%" by AndiHoffi in 11:04.74 [2382] SNES The Incredible Hulk by Dooty in 12:10.98 [2291] GBA Fire Emblem: Fuuin no Tsurugi by Toothache in 1:02:42.05 [2300] Genesis Phantasy Star IV "all sidequests" by janus in 1:55:11.70 [2354] GBC Croc 2 by RingRush in 18:24.00 [2325] MSX Yie Ar Kung-Fu II: The Emperor Yie-Gah by Quibus in 03:45.46 [2312] NES Metal Gear by dunnius in 22:27.58 [2352] NES Sweet Home by K in 40:05.09 [2343] A2600 H.E.R.O. by FractalFusion in 09:55.78 [2386] GBA Rayman Advance by got4n in 1:21:33.31 [2371] PSX Oddworld: Abe's Oddysee by Dooty in 27:01.62 [2375] PSX Oddworld: Abe's Oddysee "100%" by Dooty in 1:03:27.07 Movies that are in moon-tier but are hardly rated (these ones have less than 3 votes) for a long time may end up in Vault in the future.

I will allow for retroactive inclusion of older publications that, in the past, only completed part of the game but did so under fastest-time conditions. This does not change the current rule that the movie must be complete to be accepted. I will also rewrite the Vault page to reflect this.
