Better description for the threshold map

Open slaporte opened this issue 7 years ago • 2 comments

The coordinator view should describe the threshold map in plain language. For example, instead of saying "average score of 0.5", the dialogue should explain that this means "__ ranked the entry at least __ stars."

Speaking of plain language, I'd clarify "in plain language" to say "in units appropriate for the round". I'm a bit skeptical of how much clarity this will add, because quorum and score averaging means that there will be like 20+ outcomes in some cases, with choices like 3.33335 stars :)

I have not seen this to be a problem. On the other hand, many of the coordinators simply forget to put the threshold. When they do, Montage produces a rather incomprehensible error message that does not help to figure out the problem. I would suggest to highlight the threshold in red, and to fix the error message. Will talk to Pawel about it.
