How makers stay productive

+1. I'm assuming it relates to number of tasks done per day and consistency over time, but an explanation would be great.

I think it's whenever someone claps on one of your posts, the more claps the higher your score. That's what I have always thought anyway.

Streak 16, score 762 and praise 1.8k. I can not explain the score at all. 🤔

I'm sure Sergio will jump in here and clear this up soon, but +1. When the redesign launched, my Maker Score was in the low 800s, then the next day it dropped to mid-700s, and now it's back up to 843. I thought it might be a ranking, but that doesn't add up either.

All I know, is that it's a super secret algorithm 😱

From wrapped: Here's all your stats on Makerlog so far... plus the all-new Maker Score™ which uses a super-secret algorithm to calculate how well you've done!

Keep making! ✔️

Hey folks!

So I'm here, I just noticed this discussion 😂

Alright, so the maker Score takes a variety of factors as inputs, and it gets higher depending on how productive you are on the platform.

It's secret to prevent cheating (there's a few anti cheat measures) and will be used in most calculations like leaderboards from this year forward.

It takes a variety of factors in consideration:

1. Streak coverage - how much you've been streaking since the day you've joined.
2. Praise - weighted very little as it is easy to manipulate
3. Task count - also weighted a little
4. General penalty - anti cheat for off stats
5. TDA etc

Also keep in mind if you lose your streak it means you lose streak coverage - so it is a small penalty taken.

Baah, anti-cheating and penalty. Sounds like school all over again 🤓😿

Thanks Sergio for the clarification! 😂

Great idea & implementation Sergio!

Very cool. I thought it was a simple combination of streaks + projects + praises. Thanks for the explanation Sergio

hmm maker score still 0

what's anti cheat for off stats

what's a super high TDA what's TDA?
