You dont seem to know what litteraly means, so i was right, you were wrong, just deal with it, 79 is better than 78 and most people expected under 79, this is what i said

Your first post made no mention of "literally" (oh and this is how you spell it). Second of all, the average is heavily affected by extreme outliers. It's really the most useless of measures when it comes to statistics.

What you're trying to claim can't possibly be proven by something like the average (and certainly when it's only one point off lol). The mean or mode are much more useful measures of central tendency in this case. But even those measures are way too basic. You're much better of using the variance, coefficient of variance, standard deviation, interquartile range.

The average might be the most used statistical measure, but it's also the most basic and flawed measure. It tells you nothing of value in most cases.

The fact that 30+ people were able to come so close to the real metascore means you were dead wrong.
