Question: Best Blogs?

[Eon-Rider]

I'm not sure how long it's been there but there's a link in the navigation bar under blogs called Best Blogs. Can someone explain what constitutes whether a blog is good or not? I did a brief search on vBulletin features and I can't find anything about this.

I noticed Best Entries were determined by the star rating given to a particular entry. My only assumption for Best Blogs is the highest sum of good rated entries or perhaps some rating system I'm failing to see.

Can anyone clarify the matter?

I believe that it's the average of replies per blog entry. Though I could be mistaken. The average would raise with the more entries you make also regardless of whether you only get say 1 reply or not.

I doubt it's based on comment average, Abnegation. Let's look at the blogs that are up at the moment:

Signomi: 7.58 comments per entry.
Me: 8.47 comments per entry.
Pachy: 1.35 comments per entry.

And if Siggy has the best blog, that doesn't make sense, right?

While I don't know the specifics Eon-Rider, I too think the system is based on rating and the average of entry ratings really. (votes being people who gave a rate?)

It's based on stars then no?
Signomi: 12 votes 4.92 average
Beachboy: 20 votes 4.90 average
Pachy: 29 votes 3.48 average

After that everything else seems to be at random.
