F A R T H E R ✨

I've noticed this and am working on a fix. 

OpenRank engagement scores are very volatile for newer users compared to older users, and @ayush1939 tipped a user with an extremely low engagement score.

I have a dampener in the scoring algorithm, but it clearly needs to be increased. Thank you for your understanding.

I know some of you are upset about frequent changes, but this is a very nascent system that requires fine tuning. That's much easier now that we have a few weeks of data. 

The following fixes will be deployed later today which will significantly benefit authentic, consistent tippers over bots:

1. Significant reduction in variance between scores of tips to new vs established users. 

2. Tipper score will now be the *sum* of tip scores (not the average)

3. The website will hide tipper scores in favor of tipper rank, since that is easier to understand. The scores will still be accessible via API.

I have no idea what's going on, but my tipper score was 370 yesterday and is now 70  today 😂
