ok, on my Schooled for Life game it says "Player Rating: 5 - not the best, certainly not the worst (based on 5 ratings)"

but when you click on it, it shows a total of 8 ratings. whats the dealio?

Let's reword this text somehow to expalin it better ...

Current Text - Following is a summary of all of the ratings for this game. Of the ratings, 4 were left by members of the site; the remaining were left anonymously. Note that when calculating the overall game rating, additional factors are considered, such as a higher weight on member ratings and an exclusion of ratings outside the standard deviation.

Of the 8 ratings, only 5 were considered in determining the overal rating of 5. This could be for various reason, such as duplicate ratings and outside of a standard deviation.

Duplicate Ratings?  They were all in the standard deviation.

I think you're right, but we should come up with a better way to word that text above ... cause it is confusing and shouldn't require a BUG POST to explain.

Does it say this somewhere on the site? If so, where can it be found?
