Charts territory is back, under new name and ownership!

Say hello to ~charts_and_numbers!
I'm feeling a little ambitious and wanted to break some new, or old, ground on SN.
This was a pretty popular territory that I'd like to see around again, thought I'd bring it back and see how it goes.
I thought I'd expand a little to include 'numbers', since I'm a clearly a fan of them. What I imagine is stuff like Numberphile, numbers throughout history, what certain numbers mean to you, etc.

Post fee:

Old: 210 sats
New: 121 sats
'Link' post type is still disabled to keep discussion here on SN, plus discussion posts get more sats anyway ;) I believe there's a davidw chart showing that somewhere...
Post fee will be 117 sats actually :) Thank you @quark, I was debating it, but now it just seems so obvious haha!

Thank you, exactly what I meant. Now I'm going down a rabbit hole about this number and cyclic numbers lol
reply
I used to binge watch numberfile until I blocked my YouTube feed... I'm tempted to go back down the rabbit hole too, but I'll wait for interesting new videos to be promoted here~~
reply
Good move!
This was one of the most popular territories, before it was abandoned.
reply
I think it was at #14 before I unarchived it, when sorting by top territories -> forever. I didn't realize that resets, but it makes sense that it does. Let's see if we can get it back to top 15.
reply
Just to correct myself, the territory stats do not reset. Still at #14, maybe I was looking at 'for the day.'
reply
I thought @kr had said something about it being one of the most active territories.
reply
Where is @kr? I haven't seen him post in a long time...
reply
He no longer works for SN. I don't know what happened or why he isn't active anymore. Hopefully, he'll return at some point.
reply
Oh ok. None of my business. Yeah, let's see if he returns at some point.

He no longer works for SN
how do you know?
reply
Even though it was one of the most active territories, it wasn't profitable, according to him. He zap the previous day's profits into the posts. I think that was it. In conclusion, the posts were being pumped.
reply
Still, it was very active, including in the comments (which were not being pumped). It may not be immediately profitable, but it might be one of the profitable territories, at some point.
reply
indeed
reply
I wonder how much of that was due to his own mini rewards system of paying out to the top stackers.
reply
Probably a lot. I forgot about that.
reply
Now I'm thinking of some of my own I'd like to try out.
reply
Great! I had to post one of my articles in ~BooksAndArticles because I found it missing. That article is actually one of my top articles ever. Also, I can see that SN has a great liking for Charts and data representation, so it's a very good move.
Thanks!
reply
Glad to hear it and looking forward to your posts!
reply
Sure! 😄😊😊
reply
Thanks for bringing it up! Already have a chart on my mind that I want to share
reply
Glad it is back.
reply
Nice hack! Two territories for the price of one.
Someone should start one called: "Books_and _Articles_and_Papers_and_Newsletters_and_Journals_and_Pamphlets_and_Religious_Texts_and_Novels_and_Poetry_and_Textbooks_and_Comic_Books"
I have some great material, but I can't post it because there isn't a territory generally-specific enough /s
reply
Save it for my next territory, stuff_and_things

Curious how the post fees get allocated? Only 30 days in here... Does it go to the end of day distributions?
reply
Here's the FAQ about territories. https://stacker.news/faq#stacker-news-territories
Currently, founders earn half of all post/comment fees, and the other half goes to end-of-day rewards.
Founders also get 5% of zaps in the territory and 50% from boosts in the territory.

Nice.
I liked the charts territory the posting fee could.be 117 like your name ;)
reply
I considered it, and now thinking about it again, it does keep with the numbers theme even better...
reply

I figured you'd be happy about this one!
reply

reply

reply
there are actually two, zero and one! 😂
reply
Thanks!

Good luck

Thanks!

Best of luck!

I've adopted the siggy territory naming convention lol. There's something about "__ and __" that seems like it fits perfectly on a wild west sign.
reply
I was ambivalent about it. I hope it works well for you.
reply
stackers have outlawed this. turn on wild west mode in your /settings to see outlawed content.
