Tenrary System

As a part of my analytical nature, I'm always considering ways to revise systems of how to quantify things. I believe I've stumbled on a revolutionary idea. Everyone has heard of the standard system for rating how attractive someone (scale of 1-10). I think 10 possible ratings leaves far too much grey area (i.e. what separates a 6 from a 7?). It's hard for uniformity among men as far as what a female would be rated. Than people start throwing in half-scores, 6.5, etc. and everything becomes far more complicated than it needs to be. There have been simplified rating systems, while I have advocated. First, the Tucker Max scale (based on ratings of 1-5). I think fewer ratings helps bring bring about more uniformity, but still there's too much room for disagreement, in my opinion. Next, while eating dinner with some of my high school classmates last Thanksgiving break, I was presented with the binary system. It was brought to my attention by Joe Thaman, a graduate of Notre Dame, so obviously an intelligent individual. It was told to him by a guy named Jim from Wisconsin, I'm not really sure of Jim's background. Anyway, the binary system entails a rating of 0 for a thumbs up, 1 for a thumbs down. With only 2 possible choices, there's a good chance for almost unanimity of ratings, but I think 2 choices oversimplifies things. Also, it was indicated that, circumstantially, a 0 can become a 1. With that reasoning, everybody is a 1.
So, with all the systems out there, I've seen positives and negatives in all of them and I have come up with the ideal system: the Ternary System. The Ternary system has 3 possible ratings: 0 is thumbs down, 1 is a maybe, 2 is a thumbs up. It's a system which is aimed at getting to the point: after all the back and forth it's either yes, no, or maybe. There's less room for argument than in the 1-10 scale or Tucker Max's system, but the binary system's issue of in-betweens has been addressed as well. Like people applying to a school, the entire application is reviewed, and you can get admitted, denied, or wait listed. Just like passing notes back in elementary school "Do you like me, Yes, No, Maybe: Check one." It's the obvious ideal system, it just needed to be formalized and articulated. I'll be looking for my invitation from the Nobel committee...
