For the bell curve, that'd be 3 stars with the highest frequency. Right now 3 star and 1 star games are about the same, at 50, while 2 star games have basically twice as much. It's a skewed distribution right now.

That's what I said... "modified bell curve."  Your inability to properly parse this makes me question your intelligence and therefore I now have little reason to place importance on any of your suggestions. :)

In grade school, students are typically graded on a 0-100 scale.  The average grades aren't around 50, they are closer to 70-90.  If the average was a 50, most people would be failing.  Most of the platinum ratings hover around 2 because they are in fact generally easy.  This isn't the atari or NES generation where every game ever was almost impossible.

What's hilarious about this is that the end result of most of the things you suggest will have the effect of lowering the significance of your badass platinums by making them closer to the new average, which you claim should be 3.  So again, sir, I question your intelligence and hereby vote to have you removed from the league for the sole reason of stupitude.
