Thinking out loud  - what if instead of a weekly leaderboard it was a weekly lottery. I heard people like casinos around here. 🎰

Get entry tickets by casting.
Get more tickets based on engagement and any other weights merkle wants to add to reward good content, so reward is a mix of randomness + skill.  

Would this encourage people to cast more often and would there be less criticism towards merkle as the arbiter of taste? 

Would the Tuesday payout day be more fun for people because they don’t know what they’re gonna get?

Love the idea — mixes luck with merit. 🎰
Feels fairer, less pressure, and could boost casting.
Tuesday payouts would be way more exciting and less predictable.
