Rating metrics:
Outliers can be removed when calculating a mean average to dampen the effects of ratings outside the normal distribution. This figure is provided as the trimmed mean. A high standard deviation can be legitimate, but can sometimes indicate 'gaming' is occurring. Consider a simplified example* of an item receiving ratings of 100, 50, & 0. The mean average rating would be 50. However, ratings of 55, 50 & 45 could also result in the same average. The second average might be more trusted because there is more consensus around a particular rating (a lower deviation).
(*In practice, some charts can have several thousand ratings)
This chart is rated in the top 2% of all charts on BestEverAlbums.com. This chart has a Bayesian average rating of 90.6/100, a mean average of 90.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 91.1/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 7.9.

Have you been cheating on us
Juiceman96 01/05/2016 05:15
nice
Did I dream that I replied to your comment on my chart on this page? Or has my comment been deleted for some reason?
Huh. Anyway, I'm doing decent enough considering I'm still being a failure in everything. How is Peru treating you (if you're back to that hellhole anyway)?

Saoirse's dead, I am the Beautiful Phoenix Flower re-born, who can skip dance class in order to be so transcendently amazing. Also hey, hope everything's going allright.

The amount of Krautrock albums in the top 10.
I really love your chart !
colonelchibbers 02/16/2015 21:01
Props on high-placing Talk Talk and a bunch of krautrock. A strong tendency towards the "arty" with a lot of stuff to check out, fantastic chart!
