Not an area I'm at all well versed in, but some initial thoughts...\r\n\r\nIn the context of a single event, a hotness sort would only be relevant while the event is open for new submissions since a decay rate implies new/recent content. On the other hand, it would be cool (at some point down the road) to feature hot projects across multiple events. But yes, I can see having a hotness sort during or running up to an event. I can also see having to tweak the decay rate based on how active users are with new submissions. \r\n\r\nAnother, simpler sort, might be \"total activity\", which would give you hotness without the decay rate. Unfortunately, this results in a rich get richer situation. This might be useful though once an event is done and cannot receive new votes, submissions, comments, etc."}}
