    Is it better to make 10 posts that get 10 chincredibles each, or 2 posts that get 15 chincredibles each?

    Apparently making 6000 that get 3 chins and a flag from boobs each gets you 56th place.

    Best Poasters
    (Combined Chin/WTF Ratio)

    Worst Poasters

    Most Rec'd (Per Poast)

    Most Anti-Rec'd (Per Poast)

    Most Controversial(Most Rec's & Anti-Rec's)

    I updated the sheet to include @ExtraChrisB @PurpleReign @chuck @uw2010 @DoubleJDawg @BennyBeaver @ThomasFremont and @dflea . Congratulations!!!!!




































    YOU ARE ALL



    With the exception of @uw2010 who snuck into the top five but also had the ignominious distinction of also being the most benign poaster.
    Woohoo1!!!1! We're all winners!

    The only real flaw in this analysis is that chin's haven't always existed (nor have their predecessors "loves" I believe). There was a tim long ago on this here bored where the best response you could give to a poast you appreciated was an upvote. This almost assuredly suppresses the more tenured members of the bored's ratios.

    Of course, none of this matters so I wouldn't waste 53 seconds trying to figure out a workaround, just thought it was chintriguing and chinteresting chinformation.

    It's better to LEAVE!

    Why do you hate @TheChart?

    Alts got cut. Ratios for most were outliers. Maybe i could do an alt bored ranking.

    Also, if you didnt make the 100+ list to be ranked then either poast more...or poast less.
    I'm not an alt:

    1600 posts.
    2600 upvotes
    1100 Chins
    80 down
    55 wtf

    I think that could have gotten me on the list, but fuck off.
    Nothing special.

    This flipside to this coin is that it takes a while to build a brand, so the old guard has more name brand recognition which leads to more chins and up votes.
    In statistics given a large enough sample we can assume that white noise is zero.

    ISSUE: What is white noise?
    WHITE NOISE: White noise is defined as the error term of a time series model distributed in the Gauss-Markov process in time series data set. Given a time series data where the Y is produced in a form of Yi: (y1, y2, …, y3) in a time series: ti:( (t1, t2, …, T); this time series event is denoted as yt or X(t). The model is given as:
    (1) yt = Bo + B1Xt + ei
    The focus of white noise is on the term ei in the equation. The ei is a set of ei: (e1, e2, …, eT) generated by each time series event. These elements of ei have the following three properties: identical, independent and mean zero distribution, i.e. N(0, var). In order to be white noise, the ei process must have the following characteristics:
    (2) E(ei) = 0
    (3) Var(ei) = sigma2
    (4) Cov(et, et-s) = 0

    TLDR The issues you bring up don't really matter because there are other issues that will probably cancel them out or drown them out over a large enough sample.
