Fear stats: the all-time numbers on your Gasper profile

Fear statsnoun

Your fear stats are the all-time figures on your Gasper profile's Taste tab, including Scare Tolerance, hours watched, Hottest Take, Deepest Cut, top subgenre and fear twin.

Your fear stats are the numbers that fall out of ranking horror for a while. They live on your Profile under the Taste tab and they are all time: everything since your first rank.

What is in them

Scare Tolerance is the headline, under the line "How easily films scare you". It compares your scare scores with the Community Scare on the same films and names where you land, on five bands from Terror-Prone to Unshakeable, with Steady Nerve for landing about where the crowd lands. See Scare Tolerance for the full picture.

Hours watched totals the runtime of everything in your rankings. Your Hottest Take is the film where your scare score differs most from the community's, in either direction. Your Deepest Cut is the film in your rankings the fewest other members have ranked. Your top subgenre is the one you have ranked most. Your top watch partner is the person you tag most. Your fear twin is the member whose taste matches yours most closely, as a percentage.

Why they are all time

A tolerance built from three months of films is noise. Built from three years, it is a trait. Your fear stats are meant to be the stable description of you as a horror watcher, which is why the shareable version, Bloodwork, is all time as well: the same stats, told slide by slide, opened from the "Show your Bloodwork" button at the bottom of the tab.

In Gasper

Fear stats are built only from ranked films. Hearts (Loved) do not either, except for the favorite film slide in Bloodwork. Everything here is free, like the rest of Gasper. Nothing on your Taste tab is visible to anyone you have blocked, and a private account keeps it to approved followers.

Questions people ask

Are my fear stats yearly or all time?

All time. Everything on the Taste tab covers your whole history on Gasper, and so does Bloodwork, which tells the same stats as a story.

Are my fear stats free?

Yes. Everything in Gasper is free, your fear stats included.

When do they appear?

Scare Tolerance needs a few ranked films to read, and Bloodwork unlocks at five. The rest fill in as you rank.
