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 72.6/100, a mean average of 67.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 67.5/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 29.8.

I'm giving you this rating because you're a plague of ignorance and immaturity on this website. Grow up and then you can come back.
junodog4 11/09/2019 02:54
Nothing wrong with your chart... a little 60-70s heavy... but really, I'm more at odds with you bashing all the other genres you don't like. Why bother ripping on so many other artists?
Lukeanaderdude 01/15/2019 02:31
Nice chart, but it would be nice to see more modern albums. Barely anything from the 80s onward. Also seeing you ratings, it's sad to see you can't appreciate hip-hop. But hey, thats just your opinion, and thats what this website is for in the first place. Just saying that your missing out on some great albums
Continue your chart!

I could give you a very sophisticated “trashy trashy trash trash”, but I’m not a child. I had expected worse tbh: Dark Side of the Moon at #1 followed by OK Computer (the usual). But still, your taste is not very diverse and your picks are very PC.
Oh yeah, and stop hating on albums from genres that are clearly just not your thing.
JulianR 10/30/2017 20:38
solid picks
I agree with DanielNunes
Tamthebam 06/29/2017 09:37
a great mix of genres and artists please expand your chart !
Helios 05/20/2017 01:17
Why you rate 5/100 so many albums? Your curve of ratings isn't very objetive I suppose...
DanielNunes93 05/04/2017 16:58
0 - 2010
1 - 2000
5 - 80's or 90's
I think it says everything from a list of the best albums ever!

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 :(
