How does someone get over 100% best answers?
So I was checking out the top scorers on Yahoo answers ad was absolutely astounded at some of the people's performance. especially till i got to Big Daddy Cool who has been a member since 2006 with over 58,000 answers and still no top contributor ranking. what's ever stranger is the fact that he has a 106% best answer rating.
How is this possible?

The legitimate way to get a BA rating like that is to have some of the questions to which you gave BA deleted.
If a question gets deleted, it disappears from your "answered questions" list. If your answer was chosen as Best on that question before it was deleted, you still get to keep the BA from it. That skews the percentage.

I suspect people have large numbers of y/a accounts and use all those accounts to vote for their answer.
