Just saw this. Okay that makes a lot more sense then. Thanks!
Ok, to try to understand how this works better, I opened the Rich List and compared those voting for some of the posts on this page to their Vests balance. The two highest $ value posts each only had 3 votes, but were both voted on by an individual with over 3000 million vests. Whereas the original post had more votes (11) but the total Vests of all who voted was less than 600 million Vests. My vote by the way doesn't add any value to a post since I have less than 0.2 million Vests. I checked.
Still, not sure why one of the two highest $ posts is about 50% higher than the other since there is no significant difference in the total Vests held by those voting . Nor is the higher value post significantly older than the lower value reply. Unless replies to posts are counted as less valuable even though they have the same amount of Vests voting for them.
