Both shotwell and jumpingjack are spot on and have provided a much more quality (and accurate) explanation than what I provided in that quick response. I believe that a discussion of V-scale grades does, however, require mentioning both as some methods are more prevalent in different contexts. If introducing a beginner to bouldering in a local gym and at lower ends of the V-scale, I would argue that the "hardest move" approach is very common method (being a beginner's forum, this is why I quickly typed this without much elaboration). However, in a greater context and outside of gyms or truly beginner climbs, v-scale grades definitely take into account more factors than the single hardest move. Thanks to both for providing a more thorough explanation.
