iii - proposal: exclude reported flips for long session score

iii - proposal: exclude reported flips from the long session score calculation, i.e. even if you choose the wrong side of the flip it won't affect your long session %

I wouldn't agree with that because whether a flip was reported or not, we have three levels of consensus:

• Strong consensus
• Weak consensus
• No consensus

Imo, there is no connection between the common sense of the network related to the flip and its reports. While a flip could be reported, we shouldn't conflate it with the common sense of the flip. If there is common sense, technically, that flip should have a score. If we are going to exclude them from the score, first of all, each mistake from non-reported flips would cost more, leading to a loss in the general score. Secondly, that mistake could even lead to the termination of an identity (The rule of session’s score should be 75% or more) in some cases where, without excluding the flips, the identity could maintain its status.

Which side of an absurd (no story) flip do you usually choose?

Or a flip where both sides can mean a story?

[ltraveler]

I think the type of flips where both sides could represent the story or where both sides do not have any meaning is only a particular case. Based on what I have seen during validation ceremonies, those types of flips were in the minority.

I've had plenty of them and usually they are the ones which lower my score, imho such flips should be excluded from the total score, but we'll need a menu or something similar where users will choose the reason for reporting the flip
