The median might be a more valid measure of the forum's vote, however. Our sample size is very small and the results for some albums suffer from outliers and negative skew. Or we can leave it because this is all just for fun anyways.
The benchmark at one time 8 then it was lowered to 7. That was done to allow more albums in. But that wouldn't have been necessary if we just look out how the members voted. I still think we should how the majority votes, and use the average for its ranking.
