If you're new to the S.O.S., please keep reading. If you're familiar
with the system, you can move along to the next article now.

WHAT IS IT?

The S.O.S. (Spoiler-free Opinion Summary) is a twice-weekly posting
(and a web site) run by yours truly. Its purpose is to provide an
indication of the Net's reaction to new episodes of several
current sci-fi series, namely

* Star Trek: Deep Space Nine
* Star Trek: Voyager
* Sliders

HOW DO I JOIN IN?

Watch a new episode of any of the series covered by the SOS. Then...

* Surf on over to "http://www.joereiss.net/sos/sos.cgi".
* If you haven't already, follow the link to the registration page
and register your name and password.
* Now follow the "Submit your ratings" link back on the home page.
* Submit your ratings on a 0 to 10 scale (10 being best) for the
episodes airing that week, or link to additional pages where you
can view/modify your ratings for previous episodes of any of the
SOS series.

...or, if you don't have web access...

* Send an email to "s...@joereiss.net".
* Include your rating for the episode on a 0 to 10 scale (10 being
best).
* Include your first and last name, especially if it doesn't appear
in the header of your message. Having it in your sig is fine.
* DO NOT include spoilers!
* Try to submit before I make the postings, on Thursday and
Monday evenings. If you don't, that's OK. Any ratings I get
after the second posting will be used to calculate episode
averages and will appear on the web pages, but they will not
appear in any postings.
* You may submit changes to your ratings later. But it'd be a lot
easier for everyone involved if you could use the web interface
instead!

HOW STATISTICALLY SOUND IS IT?

IT'S NOT! About all you can reasonably deduce from these numbers
is that one episode with a substantially higher average than another
episode from the same series is probably better. There are too many
problems with the method of vote collection to support any stronger
statistical argument. So remember, this is just a fun, informal
measure of fan opinion, and it should not be interpreted as anything
more.

This concludes this installment of the S.O.S. Join us next posting
for more exciting adventures... and keep those opinions coming!

Joe
