rankings



Really appreciate Google's efforts to send the quartile rank to
individuals. Beyond this, if possible to send the scores in each
category, that will help too. When sent to individuals pivately, they
are no longer scores relative to other competitors, but 4 numbers
relative to each other.

So say someone gets 3 on originality, 1 on polish and appeal, 0.5 on
use of Android features and 2 on indispensibility, it helps people
understand the external perception of their application in these
categories. Helps them to see that they could have done better at
using the LBS or accelerometer like the guidelines say, or take
another look at the useability aspects of the app etc. Others in a
50%ile with (7,5,4,6) might take away the same message.

I agree with George that the score (these 4 numbers) will allow
developers to focus on the weakest area, or reinforce their belief in
the strong area.
