Ask HN: How is the avg in my HN profile calculated? -> http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1648811

Thanks! So it would appear that my hunch was right, only the first comments are used for avg, after that it never changes again:

"So it takes your comments numbered 6-50, throws out the highest-scoring one, and averages them."

Comment 1 is the most recent comment, not your oldest one.

In this case, I believe there might be a bug. Not that it matters. Just saying.
