These can be tweaked as necessary. And will be, if we can't get spotlighting to
highlight what we believe people truly want to see highlighted.


I would think you could figure that out by what they actually DO highlight. Why
would you need to try to guess? I WANT to see .color and .lego and if they have
to do an uphill battle thats not good IMHO.

Seeing posts that have got NO spotlight vote up at #2 and #3, and a few other
top spots, is not what I want to see (as it was yesterday for example). Is that
your guessing working? You are guessing we want to see something up there
despite the fact it got 0 spotlights? I would think you could figure out the
group here did not want those posts spotlighted by the lack of spotlight votes
they got. Remind me to never take the Lugnet Admins to Vegas ;)
