(v ÷ (v+m)) × R + (m ÷ (v+m)) × C

That is the equation given to find the bayesian estimate of an anime on this website. When I do it myself though I never get same rating as the website shows it at.

Clannad after story for example:
R = 8.825
v = 2434
m = 10
c = 7.5315

so,
2434/2444 * 8.825 + 10/2444 * 7.5315

The answer I always get is 8.819707 as opposed to the "9.032"

Nvm, I expected it to be used with the arithmetic estimate for the "R", but they used weighted me mean oddly.
