A few years ago I got an account at HotOrNot.com, one of the early sites where you could rate pictures, in this case guys or girls who uploaded their pictures for rating. I experimented with different pictures, and some got good results, other got not so good. I actually used the ratings to decide which pictures to use on regular dating websites. The one rated high were used, the other ones were dropped. The other day I shot a quick picture with my cell phone, and just for fun I put it up on the site. I was surprised about the feedback...
Even if math was not my strongest subject in school, I don't understand how the average can be 9.5... Unless it is calculated in some weird way...

Too funny!!!
Looking at that, I think you're misinterpreting the calculation.
The 9.5 isn't the average of your votes - it means that you're in
the 95% percentile. See the note underneath the score?
@Chris: That would make sense. I always thought it was the average of the votes. I thought the note was just additional info, but what you say totally makes sense.
