Yahoo Answers is shutting down on May 4th, 2021 (Eastern Time) and beginning April 20th, 2021 (Eastern Time) the Yahoo Answers website will be in read-only mode. There will be no changes to other Yahoo properties or services, or your Yahoo account. You can find more information about the Yahoo Answers shutdown and how to download your data on this help page.

Are the new stats incorrect?

According to the new stat box I have 629 answers, 149 of which are best answers, but under the "My Answers" part I have 571 answers, 199 best answers. So... which is it?

    The "My Answers" part shows each particular question/answer, so it's verifiable. That new stuff is wack. It also short changes people on the percentages and they never add up to 100%.

    I have the same issue. I have 626 (with this one I'll have 627) answers and 57 best answers.. But the stat box says I have 677 answers and 48 best answers. HMM..I don't think the thing can count. Or maybe a bug. This thing was put out yesterday or today...right? I think its just a bug and they'll have it all worked out before the end of next week.

    They are wrong I guess.
