This proposition proposes a new site tiering system that aims to solve some issues people have with the current tiering system.

Pros:

* Little if any site coding required, which means this is actually viable
* Automatic tiering means no arguments on which runs belong where; rate movies and users themselves may make the difference.

Cons:

* The Vault becomes a worse dumping ground than it is now, but that's just something that has to be dealt with
* Relies on people rating movies more.

!! Tiers

! Vault

This should be approx. the bottom 10% of runs. Runs automatically go here with a rating of lower than 5.0.

! Standard

This should be approx. 50% of all runs. Runs go here with a rating between 5.0 and 7.0.

The "standard" tier does not need to have a name or icon.

! Moons

This should be approx. 30% of all runs. Runs go here with a rating of 7.0 or over.

This effectively becomes a newer version of [Movies-Popular]. It should represent good quality runs; something that we want to show people and can promote to people.

! Stars

Cherry picked by a [user:feos|well trained monkey].

Stars are hand-picked to be the top 10% representation of our site's collection of runs.

!! Changes in judging

No longer judge movies by depending on tier-specific rulelists. Instead, have a global ruleset that allows any%/100% of all sane game genres (like the current Vault), and also allow exotic categories on a run-by-run basis if the run is judged as entertaining enough. Do not accept to a particular tier, but just accept to standard and let ratings do the work from there.
