We All Know This Blog Is Crap Anyway...

I don't know what to do.


Last week's book really messed with the HEP score and I'm not sure how or if I should fix it.  When I created it, I thought the category "Scientific Wonders" would be broad enough to cover any of the cool scientific advancements/other random creations in any book.  I've found that in books like The Demolished Man and especially This Immortal, there are some SF elements that just aren't captured there.  Notably ESP and terribly mutated people/beings/things.  These aren't "scientific" achievements per se, though in the case of the mutants, I suppose they only existed because of cobalt bombs.


When I created those 5 categories, they were the elements of the genre that most appealed to me.  Now that I've read a few more titles, I see that there are some slightly similar but also very different things that aren't captured here so maybe I need a 6th category, or to change the name of "Scientific Wonders".


Then again, those categories represent what first captivated me about SF, so maybe I should leave them the way they are and the scores will, in the end, demonstrate how my tastes in SF change throughout the project?
