WRUW - Top selection. How does it work?

Just curious, does anyone know how the "Top" selection on WRUW works?

Hope I haven't missed an obvious explanation somewhere. I really appreciate all the work that has gone into developing WC.

I haven’t got a clue how the algoritm works but thank God you pointed it out. I didn’t notice that feature before.To me the WRUW posts has just behaved crazy for two days.

If "Top" means that the coolest watches are always shown at the top, my poor SNK809 will never get any love 😂

Sounds like a reason to buy a new cool watch...

Have a "SNKs are very cool" from me!

I think I've figured out roughly how the algorithm works. It reacts to these activities:

  • The watch is posted on WRUW

  • Someone adds an emoji to the watch

  • Someone adds a comment to the watch or replies to a comment

The watch with the most activities within a given time period is ranked higher.

New watches will appear at the top of the list, but if nobody reacts to your watch it will move downwards. If your watch gets a boost with a few comments and emojis, it will move higher up on the list.

Watches that are high up on the list will naturally get more attention since they by default appear first when users open the WRUW.

Thanks, @EILorez 👍
