We're making some tweaks to the Warpcast rewards algo based on your feedback. 

First a quick recap on how scoring worked last week: 

1. For each cast, get points for likes, recasts, follows 
2. Only count engagement from known good users
3. Divide by sqrt(active followers) where (active = last 7 days)

"Known good users" was chosen carefully to prevent spam and gaming.  It was a few thousand users that were classified as not spammy, had connected twitter accounts and a few other heuristics that were hard to game. 

"Normalize by active followers" was basically taking the number of followers in the set of known good users that followed you, taking the square root of that, and dividing your score by it. This was to give new users a leg up, so that it wasn't impossible for them to earn a reward.

We're making two changes this week: 

1. Known good users is being expanded from a few thousand users to all users who classified as unlikely to be spammy. (about 40,000 users) 

2. Normalize by active followers is going to use a higher root. This means there is much less of a penalty for having a large number of active followers. 

These changes should make more people eligible for rewards this week!
