Comment on How is HN karma calculated?parent

Comments

Thanks! So it would appear that my hunch was right, only the first comments are used for avg, after that it never changes again:

"So it takes your comments numbered 6-50, throws out the highest-scoring one, and averages them."

Comment 1 is the most recent comment, not your oldest one.

In this case, I believe there might be a bug. Not that it matters. Just saying.
