- A worked example combines a reply weight of 5 with a 15-point mutual-follow boost, then applies a 10% predicted chance.
Field notes
The scoring model treats each action as a predicted probability multiplied by its weight, rather than a raw count of likes or replies. One example adds a 15-point mutual-follow boost to a reply weight of 5, then applies a 10% predicted chance for a +2.00 contribution. The page compares commits b412112 and b220448, while explicitly noting that example probabilities are illustrative.
