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 has a Bayesian average rating of 78.2/100, a mean average of 72.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 73.9/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 26.9.

It's Piero Scaruffi's chart! Fucking equal. Shame!!! You can be inspired by his tastes, but you can't copy through and through. I think you never listened to these records.
SingingPeasant96 04/15/2013 12:54 | #73220
lol are you Scaruffi? Or his son
junodog4 11/23/2012 19:43 | #55736
This looks like it was made by a Scaruffi disciple...
As I listened more this chart my respect for Scaruffi's choices grows.
Scaruffi has very good tastes but i don't know a lot of this albums.
