Idea for the BWW Forum

I've had this idea for a while, but was thinking I should post it today after seeing 'muscle23ftl's ratings post. My idea is to have a section of this website that would list all current (and maybe even some classic) Broadway and Off-Bway shows and let BWW members rate them on a scale from 1-10. The current average score would appear next to each show. IMDB uses this system and I'm always entertained before or after seeing a film or tv show to see what the average score is.

I think this would be a lot of fun, not to mention useful for people trying to decide what show to see. These ratings would mean even more coming from members of the board since we are all theater lovers and have a wide range of tastes. What do you all think? Is this possible?

Show-Score is basically the Rotten Tomatoes of theater. It's awesome.

thx for that site LizzieCurry - I had no idea that existed. Although I'd still be interested in something like that on BWW. I have to wonder why 'Charlie...Factory' which has been received terrible reviews (by fans and critics alike) still has a 71. I feel like scores from members of this forum might be more helpful.

My show was second place in Show-Score for NYMF 2016. The winning show beat us by a score higher than could have attended the entire sold out run...
