Puzzle ratings

#1

Post by FrankieHeck »

I was scrolling quickly to the top of the current WSJ thread (That's a Plus) and must have accidentally landed on the stars. I seem to have inadvertently given it a 3.5 rating. No biggie, as the average is still a 1, but is there any way to undo a rating? (I can also see wanting to change a rating if I discovered I'd been pageanted.) If I go back and tap the 1 star, it says I've already rated it a 3.5.

Unfortunately, not. But at least the ratings are anonymous, so no one will know that you found this puzzle so hard! ;)

Question about the star ratings - are we meant to choose a rating based on the Kas scale?

When viewed on a computer (& likely a tablet), it is clear that the rating is for difficulty, only. On a phone screen, that info is edited out.
