| Want to see Top 500 |
|
The above is BiblioPhil's Top 100 list sorted
by the total number of points awarded to each author and title - the sum. Example: If one user rates a book a 3, and
another user rates a book a 5, the sum of these scores is 8, the count is 2 and the average (avg)
is the sum devided by the count which in this case would be 4.
Therefore, in this example, a book that gets rated by two people gets a higher score (sum) than a book that gets rated
by only one user as a 4, even though the average would be the same (4 in both cases).
Thus the book has been read by more people will get a higher score. The points accumulate for
the authors - thus the author who has written more books may likely have the most points...
