I think the top posts refresh only periodically so it might not be reflecting the true value score yet. @Undisciplined probably knows better, he actually reads the FAQs and tries to understand the methodology while I just do this:

BTW, I stirred the pot a bit this week regarding the rewards algo and people seem to be piling on. I don't think we should advocate for change of the algo unless there is something definitively better. We need to be careful what we wish for because the value mechanism while not perfect does a good job rooting out spam and sats farmers. We don't want a system where someone can post, create 10 alt accounts and zap that post to elevate it. I might make a post later in the week discussing this.
