    Highest rated this week issue

    What way does the highest rated this week work? I created a track called left for dead and it got 4285 downloads and 529 ratings ( not great I know) but I can go on highest rated this week now and pick out alot of tracks with alot less eg ninja scaffold has 3669 downloads and 76 ratings! Now I'm not great at maths but I can count lol I would like somebody to tell me what's up with this please. Ps say no to don't move tracks they suck.

    I think that the system count the average rating but not the amount of ratings, so a track with 30 5 stars ratings will be higher in the feed compared to a track with 200 4 stars.

    Thanks for clearing that up for me it makes sense now. I have another one for you though. If you had a few downloads on a track then all of a sudden zero downloads and zero ratings does this mean my track got reported for offensive content or something??

    It probably means that the downloads and ratings are updating. ( I don't know this for sure though)

    PC TC is broken like this too? Man....Hopefully thats just for beta.

    Yea ratings are strictly star average. I'd rather have alot less ratings that were higher than alot of ratings. Thats why some of my games are 5*, because I make people PLAY my games to finish and rate.

    Indeed. There is nothing worse than some little turd rating your complex skill/mini-game game 1* because he is used to having his hand held excessively every game he plays so feels lost even though it's obvious what to do.
