How exactly does this best answer percentage thing get so screwed up?
I mean, I have seen some "glitches" in my time on this site. But this Best answer percentage is just rediculous...

How does one have 300+ best answers, but only show that 1 answer has been done?
Okay, so this morning it now says zero percent. But with a negative number on "other answers", I predict it won't stay that way for long.
How do you get a negative number of answered questions anyway?

17,350% BA percentage?
Wow, it's even more ridiculous when you consider that this person has lost over 400 points this week.

Its either a glitch, or that person is doing it intentionally. This is out there, but last time I checked they had answered two questions, and I checked back just now and there are none. El Gokú brought up that the person has -400 points this week, which makes me wonder if the person has multiple accounts deleting all of their answers, thus increasing their best answers percentage(the number of best answer remains the same even if they are deleted, while the number of total answers can decrease if they are deleted).
Either that, or I am waaaayyy off and it is just a glitch.

That is a marvelous glitch. I once had a contact who had a BA percentage of 1347%
