I really enjoyed reading this.
On the flip side (as an OKC user), I've also had moderate amounts of fun trying to figure out their algorithms by trial and error.
For a while, I discovered I could figure out who scored me highly on their Quickmatch [1] feature by visiting it repeatedly - the ones who gave me a high score always came up first. This doesn't seem to work anymore.
[1]: If you haven't used OKC, the idea is: you score potential matches 1-5. You can tell if someone scored you highly (but not who) and if both of you give each other 4 or 5 you get a message "introducing" you both. If you're an A-list (paid) member, you get to see who scored you highly without scoring them.
Edit: tweaked phrasing as per comments.
- Chinjut 12y agoI believe you are supposed to get notified when rated 4 or 5 regardless of whether you rated the other person at all.
- wldcordeiro 12y agoDidn't they recently remove the 4-5 star system in favor of just a like button? I've been using the mobile version lately but it just has a star now for like and no longer shows a 1-5 rating.
- delecti 12y agoYou can always get notified that somebody scored you 4-5, and you get notified of specifically who it was if you score them 4-5 back.
- andrey-p 12y agoFair point - that's what I meant. Let me rephrase that.
