yes cream of the crop rises to the top style ranking will be better but that does not mean we dont give proper exposure to new rivalries which are being added.

yes cream of the crop rises to the top style ranking will be better but that does not mean we dont give proper exposure to new rivalries which are being added. We have tried this kind of ranking before but in that case old rivalries remain on top because they have the maximum contents, fans etc. We dont want that. We want dynamism on the homepage.
- mattdennewitz 19y agohave you tried adding a simple decay (exponential might be too sharp - i start with logarithmic and tweak from there) based on the amount of time that the rivalry has existed? hotness could be as simple as starting with #votes/time alive and playing around with the variables from there.
- abhishekdesai 19y agoTime is a factor right now but it is linear factor which i guess is not working right now. Need to make it logarithmic.
