Which is why Carder is right..and I'm kind of right. If we as producers share info, albeit in maybe a bit more adult way in which I've displayed mine (but it helps to vent!) then we'd have an overall picture of a models reliability.
We can get an 'average' view of a models performance arrived at from several opinions.
Let's call is the 'Benson Rating'
Yes 43. I'm not too sure what to make of her. To give her credit I thought she'd walk after an hour..but she toughed it out. Good kid.
12 is normally reliable. We've shot her three times but she didn't make it to our last block shoot. I think she has 'bimbo moments' which in my book is not a crime.
She was 8/10 rated but I docked a point.
