seems like most submissions that have more comments than points tend to be boring/predictable. not always, but its a good indicator, as controversial topics tend to have most comments fall into certain predictable buckets.
- pg 17y agoSorry, I was editing my comment to mention this while you were suggesting it. That does in fact work very well.
- noodle 17y agono worries. just off the top of my head, i'd say that there's probably some sort of relationship between the points on the submission and the average points per comment in the comments.
