I was happy to have one post really blow up this week. Got about 3x normal upvotes, and I was getting conversation well into the next day, which never happens. Had another do pretty well with maybe 50% more votes than normal.

Neither one was something I expected to be big, both were simple pictures posts with no significant commentary, but they really seemed to grab attention. The All feed felt a bit lacking this week to me, I'm assuming with Labor Day weekend people were getting in those last summer vacations, so maybe that explains a bit more exposure for the posts?

Other than that, the whole cat food mod drama was really something. I deleted a few replies before posting. I didn't want to get drug into that mess. I think the World crew dealt with it mostly ok, but I'm not totally thrilled with some of their decisions. Their call though.
