btw, i don't give + or - 1s on my makeshift wall. I don't know who did that. Me no gives the 1s! Perhaps it was my nose, but I dream or at best day dream. Have some peaches and wine, is what I say.
Oh yea, and then some guy said Live at Reading was the first album he ever bought. I'm not sure if that's like some kind of slight, maybe some European humour, because Live at Reading was in 92 but, like, the thing, you know, the disc, or henceforth known as The Disc didn't come out till like last month (i smell sex and candy) ....maybe it's some new school of thought, in the euros, like not scathing, not ironic but not....like a subtle invisible giggle....eh, me tongue stop

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 84.5/100, a mean average of 84.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 84.2/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 6.9.
