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

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

Categories also can be filtered by surely.

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 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.)

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.
Current project: Gex 3 any%
Paused: Gex 64 any%
There are no N64 emulators. Just SM64 emulators with hacky support for all the other games.
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.

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.
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.
