Score

Scores are features of most entities

A Score is included in the campaign (or comment) feature, but it could also be a distinct feature.

It's basically just some range of integer numbers where a small number indicates dislike and a large number indicates liking something. They could be applied to types of countries for instance.

Alternate schemes proposed

A Fixed, Simle range

One idea is to use a seven step system for scores as follows:

• -3 Boycott
• -2 Strong Avoid
• -1 Avoid
• 0 Neutral
• 1 Support
• 2 Strong Support
• 3 Endorse

Variable, relative range

Variations are

• A range from -1 to 1, using real values as score
• A range from -100 to 100 using integers as score
• Other shceme

A fixed range could be converted to a relative range by dividing the score with abs(max) or abs(minimum) and multiplying it by the the maximum value of the fixed range
