A few of the games on the home page display incorrect ratings on the home page and game page as shown in the following screenshots:

Home Page:

The circled ratings are the ones affected by the glitch. Below are screenshots of the game pages for the affected games:

Crest Breakout 2:

Forgotten Hill: Fall:

Super Battle City 2:

In each of the game pages, I circled both appearances of the rating, which matches what the home page shows. However, the "All Games" page shows different ratings for those games even though the number of plays is the same. Here's a screenshot:

The circled ratings are the correct ratings (but out of 10 instead of 100) for the affected games. Also, the glitch is not always in effect, and when it's not, the rating displayed on the home page matches that on the All Games page. In addition, the category pages are not affected by the glitch as shown below:

Action Games:

Mouse Only Games:

In each of the above screenshots, I circled the ratings of the affected games, and the ratings match the ones on the All Games page.

I've actually been seeing this glitch for a while, but I kept hoping the maintenance would fix it. Now that the maintenance happened, and the glitch is still in effect, I tried clearing my cache and changing browser, and neither of those worked.

@Patrick2011

Thanks for the detailed post. I'm going to bring up your thread with someone that can look into this information. I'm not sure what the workload is for the team, so I don't have an eta on when they can start checking this one out and try and track down the cause.

I'd like to say thanks for taking the time to document and outline all the details ( along with screen shots). I'm sure that this will help!

@akshobhya - I'll update the team so they know this can happen for other games beyond what was listed.

Thanks for the heads up!
