Yes' "Astral Traveller" has shot to the top of the live album ratings. If you check the main album page it claims that the item has 300 ratings:

First off, it seems pretty weird that this album has 300 ratings but not a single review - normally the ratio of reviews to ratings is much less skewed! But it gets even stranger if you go to "show all reviews/ratings":

where it's evident that only 12 people have actually rated it.

What happened here?

The 288 bogus ratings for this album were deleted but the album page-stats have not fully updated. Max has been informed. Until the chaos created by this Brazilian ahole has been fully fixed all kinds of weird things will be seen. Please bear with...

What?
