Not exactly.

GOG has two stars schemes:
- One uses 0.5 granularity (5.0, 4.5, 4.0, etc.) and is displayed on the game page as stars or half-stars.
- The other uses 0.1 granularity (5.0, 4.9, 4.8, etc.) and is not displayed by GOG to regular users, but is used behind the scenes (e.g. when sorting by rating).

The two are usually in synch, except when the number of votes is small. The first scheme requires at least 5 votes; until then it displays as zero stars (and zero votes, even for 1-4 votes). The second is ok with even one vote.

A display of "zero stars" does not mean zero (the minimum allowed by GOG is 1 star). It just means "not enough votes yet", and it is not always associated with a 0.1-granularity star rating of 5.0. It can be anything based on people's votes. Look for example at "Anomaly Warzone Earth Mobile Campaign". It has "zero stars", but 3.3 rating.

MaGog uses the second scheme almost everywhere. So when you filter for "at least 5.0", you will also get games that have a 5.0 rating but less than 5 votes, e.g. "Men of War: Vietnam". These games do have a 5.0 rating, but probably only one or two (or four) people actually voted for them.

The only place where MaGog uses the first scheme is in the star icons (as opposed to the numeric value) it displays in the "Stars" column. This basically displays what you see on the game page, without any editing.

If you don't want to see games with a low number of votes, you can simply add a filter that requires "Number of Ratings" at least 5.

Hope this clarifies the issue.

Ahh, I didn't notice the 5 above the empty stars.

Weird method.. for that I was also puzzled about the (0,0) for ratings & reviews.

Yep, already used that trick ; )

ANNOUNCEMENT:
Version 5.3.4 has been released with the following features:

* Changed the rather confusing "zero stars" display for games with less than five votes to the hopefully clearer "[Not Enough Votes]" [inspired by phaolo]
* Added support for one more genre introduced by GOG a few days ago: Open World

Oh!
It's perfect, thanks ; )

Btw, currently, the Pajama Sam titles appear as the best videogames ever created with a perfect 5\5 score XD
(just a funny critics about goggers' ratings)

Yes. I did notice that when I tested your filter.
Still not tempted.

After struggling with GOG's new limits on logins (no more than three successful logins from the same machine in one hour?), this is resolved and we're back to normal.

Due to the persistent communication problems that GOG is experiencing for many hours now (http://www.gog.com/forum/general/gog_webpages_are_loading_too_slow_since_today_anyone_else_with_this_problem), MaGog has been unable to complete its regular update runs at ~00:00 GMT (7 hours ago) and ~06:00 GMT (1 hour ago). What usually takes 40-50 minutes is currently running so slowly (waiting for GOG) that it would not complete in even six hours.

Hopefully GOG figures it out by the next run (~12:00 GMT).

ANNOUNCEMENT:
Version 6.0.0 has been released with the following features:

* Added limited "Downloadable File" information (file title/version/link, but not file name/date/time/size) for games and DLCs I do not own [many thanks to immi101 and Barefoot_Monkey for their help]
*** Note: Should you want to, I believe you should now be able to download all your GOG games directly from MaGog (do not forget to log in to GOG to do so)
*** Note: Naturally, I cannot verify this last statement for games I do not own, so please report any errors you might encounter while downloading

* Added full changelog and partial unbundling information for games I do not own [many thanks to immi101 and Barefoot_Monkey for their help]

* Added a new section to the tutorial page to describe the differences in "Downloadable File" information between games I own and those I do not

* Replaced the "Downloadable Files... data not available yet..." filter with the more detailed (yet equally uninteresting) "Downloadable Files... level of information is..." filter

ANNOUNCEMENT:
Version 6.0.1 has been released with the following features:

* Added "Windows 10" to the list of searchable operating systems

Is it my imagination, or is http://www.an-ovel.com/pages/magog.php no longer working?
EDIT: It works if I use a proxy. How weird...

You are the second person to report a problem.

The website is up and running. However, there seems to be some DNS problem that causes some places on the globe (e.g. Brazil, Pakistan) to be unable to reach the server. I don't know what the cause of it is, nor how to help resolve it.

Do you happen to know which DNS server you are using?

I am using google's DNS server, mrkgnao.
8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4, I think. As I mentioned above, it works when I use a proxy.

Yes. The problem seems to be localised only to people using Google's DNS. Curious.

Don't know if it's a Google issue, or perhaps Google is the first to see a more generalised problem. We'll see.

ANNOUNCEMENT:
Version 6.0.2 has been released with the following features:

* Corrected a long-standing internal issue whereby MaGog used negative IDs for a dozen or so removed games whose IDs it did not know [many thanks to Barefoot_Monkey for his help in identifying the true IDs]
* Added a filter (called "System Requirements (Any)") to allow searching all the "System Requirements" fields (Windows, Mac, Linux, Note) in unison
* Changed the default date for the "Downloadable Files" filters from yesterday's date to today's date (seems a bit more useful, now that file changes are more readily identified by MaGog)

Cheers for your continued efforts and improvements, much appreciated.
