In any case, the scores themselves don't seem to make a lot sense. Like, what? All my gigs are at 10, except these 2 at 9. How can these two gigs have the same score?

No, it's not. Just look at some examples people have provided - they are not a simple average. Otherwise someone with 4 gigs with 10, 10, 8, 8 would be guaranteed a 9 in overall score. That's just demonstrably false.

This is not true though. That's the issue. The overall score is not a simple average of the gig's scores. Or it can be, depending on how you define it. If you define simple average as adding up all the reviews, and you count the score per review, then yes.

I explained above. Those are not 4 scores - they are the number of reviews per gig times their rating. It's not 4 data points.

"A weighted average is a method of computing an average where some data points contribute more than others. If all the weights of the data point are equal then the weighted average is the same as the mean." Your mistake is that you see 4 gigs, two with 10 and two with 8, and you wrongly assume those are 4 data points. They are not. If the 2 gigs with 10 score have 100 reviews each, they are 200 data points, not 2.

No, I didn't. It's the same in your gig - if you have a gig with 100 5 star reviews, 8 4 star reviews, etc. and you calculate the average, it's still a simple average, not a weighted average - and it works exactly the same way.

A simple average of all reviews. 142 reviews of 10, 30 reviews of 10, 12 reviews of 8, and 11 reviews of 8. This is still a simple average. A weighted average is when more weight is given to some of those, which is what is happening.

No, it doesn't. Using a simple average, his score would be 9,76 - that would be 10, since the system rounds it. He has 9. It's clearly using another method, not a simple average.

It's not balancing out. If it was a simple average, your score would be 10, not 9. For your score to be 9, it confirms that it is using some method other than a simple average.

Somewhat? It's 100% related, it's obvious. Not a secret either.

I'm talking about weighted averages. Which is a different way to determine an average, versus a simple average. Which is how this system works.

Yes there is. 9*0,1 +8*0,7 + 5*0,2 - for example. Each value has a different weight, depending on gig sales.

They provide different weights depending on the gigs that sell more. Basically if you have 100 orders in a gig with a score of 5 and 10 orders in a gig with a score of 10, your score will be much neared 5 than 10.

That you know of. This system seems to be weighting private feedback heavily.

A couple consultation orders, not cancelations. Never canceled a consultation order.

You're eligible, but that doesn't mean you're getting it for now - it depends on the category, as you can see in the message above. If it's in high demand, and they need more TRS in it, then you have a good shot.

Contact support, that must be a bug. Your reviews are still showing normally, and they don't add up to a 3.9 average.

That was always a manual process, and it still is. Even if you had a 10 success score, that doesn't mean you would be a Top Rated Seller today.

So I get a 9 on the consultation instead of 10 because I'm paying for seller plus? Interesting.

I've had a couple, and it's also at 9, with nothing negative, when all my other gigs are at 10. No idea.
