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 34.6/100, a mean average of 25.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 24.7/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 26.4.

Dude, sweet! It's a fratboy music collection. Actually, this list is not totally without quality (Kanye West, Bob Marley, AC/DC and Sublime is somewhat listenable), but your ridiculous moniker and arrogant revisionist intro challenge to us music aficionados makes this list just beg for abuse.

I wish I had a lower IQ so I could enjoy Musicalmasterminds' company and/or understand this chart.

WHO THE FUCK DO YOU THINK YOU ARE?? You ignorant little shit you come on here and trash some of the best albums and charts on here e.g. (Daydream Nation and Velvet Underground, and the lists of myself, Eltson, JohnnyRocketFingers) have you even heard of even of half the stuff that you are defiling. If you are going to be so rude to everyone on here either delete your account, or keep your opinions (fucking warped as they may be to yourself).
