I think it would be too much info, and the high ratings would get lost in a number of 4s, 5s, and 6s.
Plus, I'd have to round up/down all the Ratings with decimal points or include .5s

Yeah, that makes sense. Other than that, I'm golden, pony boy.

Yeah probably don't need 100 ranked. Top 50 maybe + ones of interest/divisiveness.
Those are my principles, and if you don't like them... well, I have others.

That's something to consider. Creating the ranked list is easy, but I can save the details for top/specific directors (perhaps ones with over 15 Ratings) and do a format similar to the Weekly Results for the rest until I get to the Top 25 or 50.

I feel like 50-100 will contain the most interesting/divisive selections.
