if only someone could come up with an actually fair rewards system…

… I’ll wait

Curious — what would you do to improve the rewards algo?

for starters, you should factor in the age of the accounts

small accounts = good

new accounts sweeping big rewards their first week to be never seen again later = bad

unfair to anyone showing up here every day

something similar to channel streaks but to reward casting every day should be in the algo too

yes

busy now but will get back to you later

new accounts:

sword lady from last week
pierogi guy

older mostly inactive accounts:

adrienne’s daughter
well hell - moi - i was born the same day as my useless sister 

- she had done all the work on this platform and i just stole the part of her social graph that was willing to play my little wicked game

sure sure, small and new accounts can go big financially on fc…
… if they’re feeding off a popular’s account social graph

nepo babies but in account form



The age of an account should definitely be a factor for rewards, and in the same breath, we want to encourage new activity and we need them to stick around. I don’t want to prevent new accounts from getting big rewards, but it feels like a slap in the face sometimes as someone who is here every day, interacting and showing love consistently
