Ohhhhh... that's what the money's for.

Thanks 😃

For the audience's vote, I divided 20 by the votes. Then I took the number of comments and multiplied it by the number I got. Mary Chan had 11 votes and 10 comments, so I went 20/11=1.81, and then did 10*1.81 and got 18.1, rounding to the closest whole number or .5.

The Forest Ranger had 3 votes and 1 comment, so I ended up multiplying 1 by 6.66 and rounded, hence the 6.5.

For you... there was nothing to multiply with, so that's why it was a 0 😁'

Consider this:

Article A:
40 votes
10 comments
20/40 = 0.5
0.5 x 10 = 5

Article B
20 votes
10 comments
20/10 = 2
2 x 10 = 20

(see problem?)

as well,
Forest Ranger = 1 comment
😁your comment
remove padding:
6.66 x 0 = 0
unexplained criteria x your comment = shifted results
lol, okay 4 me : )

some suggestions:
1) divide votes / 20...(higher votes = higher result)
2) be transparent
3) keep tinkering
4) have fun (i did)

I already knew that none of them would pass 20 votes/comments that quickly, or else I wouldn't have done it like that. I also commented on his poem a few hours in (how was I supposed to know no one else would?).

nice

Congrats to all - thanks for sharing your writing, I really enjoyed it - it was high brow stuff in a low brow game, if votes meant anything you all should have had 100X more votes for putting yourselves out there and creating some really meaningful content

J.Canuck Day 2,460, 07:57

Let me know when you do your next contest, I'll like to donate some prize money/gold too

Jenavive RoseThorne Gemstone Day 2,460, 15:57

Jenavive RoseThorne Gemstone Day 2,460, 15:56
