February Stats and Stuff

darlicious — Wed, 05 Jan 2022 22:34:16 GMT

As each months Top Contributors post/thread gets more and more vague I thought I wohld throw out a little insight into the numbers for February. These are generalized as there was the loss of posts/stats early in the month and I did do some manual counting in some profiles to get more accurate numbers.

I did not include stats from the top 10% as I still can't find 2 badge awardees or pm has it wrong which isn't the first time what was posted didn't match up to what I found or recorded.

Here are the stats for the top 3 categories...(sorry top 10% I'll get to you if I find everyone?!!)

Oracles ( 9 active/current)

Post/bravo/solutions total : 1133/2242/102 top 3 : 873/1394/81

Its important to remember participation is voluntary and oracles perform many other tasks such as moving threads/posts, editing, providing feedback, meeting with pm, archiving etc.....

Top 1% ( 3 members)

Post/bravo/solutions total : 1177/2653/125 top 3 : n/a

Top 5% (9 members)

Post/bravo/solutions total : 2013/3295/95 top 3 : 978/1371/63

Insights:

The top 1% had 4% more posts than the oracles, 30% more than their top 3 and 20% more than the top 3 of the top 5%. They also had double the solutions of the top 3 of the top 5%, 30% more of all 9. They also had 25% more solutions than the oracles and 40% more than their top 3. They also had 18% more bravos and nearly double as many bravos as the top 3.

The top 3 of the top 5% and the top 3 of the oracles had fairly similar numbers in bravos with 10% more posts but the oracles having 30% more solutions. Looking at all 9 of each group the top 5% had 80% more posts, 45% more bravos but the oracles had 7% more solutions.

There are many more comparisons you could make with these stats....read into it as you will I thought the stat heads out there might enjoy some number crunching now that the Univac 5000 is out for maintenance 'til next month.

Good move, @ShawnC13

Probably a good idea to not link Community Rewards to such.

👍

Fascinating work @darlicious !

My interpretation of your findings suggests solutions weigh heavily into the rankings. But of course one would expect that - a high post "quantity" doesn't mean high post "quality"... and bravos can be inflated by general banter etc...

But then again, many others get a heck of a lot more solutions than me... 🤷‍

@Nezgar

I wish it was that easy.....I swear pm tweaks the formula every month. Bravos have always been a good indicator but just when I think I'm bang on with my predictions a spanner is thrown in the works. I'm not sure if the french side sometimes counts for more or they adjust board value etc....I can come close but I have yet to smoke a cigar! They are always one step ahead me!
