You had a nice hold on that spot after all your AMA zapping. I've also been slipping a spot or two while I sleep, most nights.
Last night, I just happened to think about a nice meta topic, while watching the Heat game.
My guess is that your normal activity today will boost you back up.
I did go a bit wild on the AMA zapping and commenting. I am slightly baffled by the calculations used. I don't get how david (nothing against david) keeps finishing so high when he posts 5 times in a month and makes maybe a 100 comments and doesn't zap much. I know he usually has one big post per month that does extremely well but why does one post that is a top post for the day and generates say 30k sats outweigh 30 days of posts that generate a total of 50k sats?
I know they want to incentivize quality and detract from people spamming to try to get rewards but I think quantity gets punished too much. Regular posters are the lifeblood of SN.
It's very non-linear. I'm guessing he's got the top post spot, especially with who is likely zapping him.
I agree that it's a bit unbalanced, but he does put more effort into his posts than I do and they're of greater interest to most stackers.
I still think rewarding zaps directly makes more sense than rewarding content directly.
Totally agree. His posts are great and I am not suggesting he shouldn't be rewarded for his efforts I just find it a bit odd.
If I were to speculate about k00b's mindset in setting it up this way, I'd guess that he chose a rewards function that was simple to work with and mostly yielded the results he wants, even if it excessively rewards the top person in each category.
My stock crashed liked bitcoin today. I was sitting pretty at 6 and logged on and I was suddenly 9th. On the last day? These standings must be incredibly close.
This is what I don't like about MSM. The difference of over 50k sats between 6 and 9 compels me to chase and that's not what I want to spend my time doing on SN.
