Does it seem to you that lurve milestones comes in threes?

Mine certainly do….....

1) What’s my lurve score again?
2) Oh yeah, that shit.
3) I don’t care.

I baked a lurve cake. That’s where all my points went. ;)

I can’t believe you pay enough attention to these things to even begin to make up notice a pattern like this.

Fluther harvests lurve. Perhaps it’s some sort of energy saving system. Make ‘em wait, and then push a bunch through all at once. I’ve got it documented (really- we were talking about it in a question as it disappeared) they stole 900 lurve off of me, and so far I’m not getting anywhere. Or maybe the mods put it on their oatmeal in the mornings.

Nah, I see why you’ve noticed that. I have also noticed that over in the community feed, there are often multiple yellow-backed announcements at the top stating that _____ has reached ___ lurve. When there aren’t multiple, there’s usually none at all. I’ve also noticed that there are several of us at 9 or 8K lately and quickly approaching 10K. It’s kinda odd!

No

Yes. But lots of things come in threes, as well.

I bet several people start on fluther, and rack up them delicious lurve points, at the same time…and then they eventually hit their milestones at the same time, roughly.

It’s nothing like Jim, Janis, and Jimi, mind you.

He had noticed that events were cowards: they didn’t occur singly, but instead they would run in packs and leap out at him all at once.

It is almost like they don’t hurt the servers by constantly calculating it on every page load. Maybe there is a script that is run periodically that updates the community feed.
