Riot act is out of 20 reviews. This is only 5. The average rating will go up.

But this is misleading.
Think of the RS review. It was a very good review, with 4 out of 5 stars meaning 'Excellent' according to the RS scale.
Excellent does NOT equal 80% (which is obviously what 4/5 is), and so you can't just use the fraction of the stars to get a percentage, and then interpret the percentage according to the scale used in school.
True, if the rating ends up being comparable to Riot Act, then, whatever the scale, they come out equal (critically speaking). But, we'll have to wait and see on that.
Bottom Line:
80% in school = average/good (B-/C+)
80% (4/5 stars) in RS = "Excellent" (A)

he's right. On the school grade scale the bottom 60 numbers didn't really count.

what magazines do they count for their totals?

If Pearl Jam doesn't beat Ghostface Killah for best album of 2006 I'm going to pissed.
Maybe you should listen to Fishscale before making that statement.
I love Avocado, but Ghost knocked that one out of the park too.
