That's why I don't get why we would do it, since latenight ratings already don't change that much in real tv or our game. If someone really wants to promote their latenight with guests etc, then it will reflect in the monthly ratings. When people have promoted in the past, i've increased their ratings.

But it isn't that much more work and the real networks do it, so I really think we should, it's not like we are doing daytime too...

I know its rules but I don't think you guys heard of the idea of putting a scripted program there. If you're going to do dailies, you minus well factor random programming there if not what's the point of even doing dailies? I was also planning on putting a late night soap that would five days a week there but for some odd reason scripted affair isn't allowed. So you still won't consider factoring them into the late night ratings? Its a new idea so I can see why you're against it, I was going to ask you but since late night was only measured by monthlys, I didn't see the point until now.

MSTV said you cant have random scripted every night but if its the same every night like daytime soaps I think it should be fine.

IF you have the same program 5 nights a week then it is okay, but if it changes then nope.

I reallly don't see the point of doing dailies then, it is just extra work.

It really is only 10 seconds more extra work if that..you copy the ratings from the night before and change them up or down a point if you change them at all...

I love how you always say that you don't do averages because its extra work, yet you want to do this. We already have monthly late-night averages that EBN works hard on and that should be more than enough.
I'm not really liking the direction this game is going now.

Getting more members? This was an idea I asked about, I never said WE ARE DOING THIS, I said WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT DOING THIS. Two different things. And no offense to EBN, he doesn't work that hard on them because I have done them before and they take about 5 minutes. And doing averages is different that this because averages is a lot more work and I myself find them pointless.

This site is starting to get ridiculous and unfair, that's why I haven't even signed up for a network yet because it feels like I'm going to have to deal with bullshit. The game is fun but not this site.
People are lazy with the ratings.
I've only been here for one week and the writing is on the wall. You guys better get things worked out and start new with this thing.

How are they pointless? It shows how close each of the networks are. It makes sweeps periods more realistic. If you want to talk about pointless, this is pointless. We don't need another set of ratings squandered with your piss-poor ratings methods.

That's really interesting considering this game has been going for 4 years without your "insightful" commentary. And no writing is on the wall. It's not about laziness, they are called primetime ratings for a reason. And I really don't think there is much bullshit to deal with. And I do take time on the Daytime Ratings.

With your logic, the result is probably to add late night ratings. Well, I'm not doing them.

I am so tempted to kick your ass out of this game just to be a bitch, no reason behind it but that.
