m = minimum number of ratings required for an item to appear in a 'top-rated' chart (currently 10).
AV = the site mean average rating.

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 93.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 92.7/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 8.9.

Very much enjoyed your picnic chart. Some stellar twee pop recommendations and some with which I am already familiar. I got here through Sodastream's "A Minor Revival" and am looking for similar sounding music from down under. I found plenty of options on your picnic list. One Scottish band you might want to listen to, if you're ever at a loss of your twee-ness, might I suggest The Trash Can Sinatras. Thanks again. Great chart!
I am ashamed to say that I don't know any of these albums. But I just wanted to say that this is a great idea. Picnic chart!
I tried to have a picnic to the above listed albums. I danced myself so silly I trod on the jam sandwiches and slipped over in the jelly. I had to spend 4 hours in A&E as a result.
Moral - this chart is not suitable for a picnic. I still like it though.
nice idea, nice chart!
no album and no artist in common with my overall chart - a lot to discover!
Thanks for the recommendation, added it to my vast wishlist :D will get to it soon enough, though, thanks!!
And another fantastic indie chart. I now checked out Allo Darlin and Camera Obscura and I have to admit that they are awesome. Big recommendation fot you: Lonely Drifter Karen - Fall Of Spring. I can not imagine a picnic without them
Y'all are sweeties. Thanks
Lots of picnic material.
How have I not rated this before? It's outrageously good! This chart may well be the soundtrack of my summer.
How could I refuse such a charming invitation! :)
And I am glad I came. This is a really lovely chart that would make any twee heart beat faster!
Let me know if you want any recs... Would be happy to share if you like!
:D

A lot of hard work happens in the background to keep BEA running, and it's especially difficult to do this when we can't pay our hosting fees :(
