This appears to be a result of the posters use of the revisions feature combined with a glitch in the ratings systems related to how it calculates rating revisions and weekly ratings.

Basically the user posted a track edition in the old week, then posted a new revision in the current week. When the week expires all tracks get a ratings bonus which locks the rates in for the previous week. The system is now averaging rates across two weeks, so 5 and 0 which results in a rating of 2.5.

^ So confusing. Is this going to be a recurring issue, or just a one time thing? But anyways, numbers removed cause it violates rating policy :P

You guys realise this is a recreation right? So the final number is a multiplier as per the Rating Guide

Average 5
Degree of Difficulty multiplier 5/10
Final Score: 5 * 0.5 = 2.5
