  1. A rating system may not work for everybody, but saying that it cannot work for most geocachers is simply wrong. There are nearly 2000 registered users of GCVote. It seems to work for them and I know that it works for me. It greatly helps when looking for nice caches in unknown areas. Most of the 170000 rated caches are located in Germany, but the system is spreading to other countries, too.
  2. For those that want to give a simple rating system a try, take a look at my little project GC-Vote. There currently are 25,000 individual ratings in the database, but most of them for caches in Germany. The program only works with Firefox and you have to install the Greasemonkey extension. But the rating system is fully integrated with geocaching.com. Average ratings are displayed on all cache details, map and list pages, just as if this system was a part of geocaching.com. I did no statistical analysis of the votes, but I have the impression that the system works ok and is better than no rating system at all.
