Good. More people need to do this. I've been tracking reward / post data and distribution of rewards by word count, and there's a lot of opportunity for manual curation.
I'm still making more useful metrics on the data set, but I will keep refining it as I go. Word count isn't everything, but it is just one of the indicators of reward to effort ratio, along with pictures, and other "stuff" that goes into a post.
I hope more people choose to join you in the land of manual curation.
