Best answers too high?

My YA! score at present is showing I have 20400% best answers! I know I'm good, but not that good!

Anybody else notice this with their scores?

    The inane % figure is a glitch which shows inaccurate Best Answer % information depending on which screen on Y!A you look. .... but it is NOT (repeat _ not_ )related to a "missing decimal point".

    If you use the mouse to hover over my profile you'll see I have an 82% BA rate. However if you click on my profile and go to my page, you'll see it's a 75% rate.

    The team haven't announced it so all that can be reliably said it that it's a glitch and any other statements about it being decimal point related are complete supposition.

    Please dont exaggerate.

    Everything is under control.

    The first two numbers in the score are your percentage of best answers.
