Maybe they are going to try to push the daily win rate section instead?

What I don't undertsand is, whichever I check one of these decks, nobody is satisfied or praising the deck in the comments. And when I check the deck list, yeah they are right. So how is this mysterious 'script' choosing these decks? 

It chooses the most up-voted decks in a specific time frame, which in most cases are blatantly wrong. People read the first line of a deck with the idea in mind and up-vote it without even testing it themselves.

I wish it was a requirement to list win rate and rank with your deck via innkeeper or deck-tracker.

wild decks:

>21060 dust, 21480 dust

no, thanks 

I'll have to try a few of these out

would love to know more about how decks are picked because it seems there is some kind of selection, my deck was most popular one almost the whole week and it is not on the list...  it got over 200  upvotes from fantastic people and many of them reported success yet decks with  10 or 12 upvotes are on the list

it is very disappointing for someone who spends time on writing tips and answering almost every question, I believe it is also not reflecting community picks

edit: as editors explained, script on the website put the list together and even tho community appreciated the deck with over 200 upvotes and it was most popular during mentioned week (and was created AFTER the last list was published), it was recognized by a script as 8 days old so it is in limbo, and editors don't care because script > common sense

Yes it was created on 22.04 and it was THE MOST POPULAR during the week of 23-30. For 4 days (from 7) it was nr 1 deck on the main page and on the list of hot decks.

You are trying to be sarcastic but you are failing to understand your own logic. Even the title says "most popular decks of the week" not "decks created last week". Deck was created after last list was published and I dont see any good reason to disqualify it. I dont understadn the reason to put it in some kind of a limbo. 

The title is wrong as the list doesn't reflect what community decided to be "most popular". I hope you can also understand how it is dissapponting to creator of the deck and someone who answered almost all community questions?

So again: how come the most popular deck of the week 23-30.04 is not on the list of the most popular decks of the week 23-30?

What you are saying is that if you create deck and the last day of previous week and it is most popular deck of the week it wont get on the list because... ??? should it go to the list for week before or what? I dont understand

Please explain this to someone who posted description and answered over 50 questions from the community

arent editors here for that? to actually not only look at the list generated by the script but also to make sure that they reflect reality? I understand that decks rotate and it is not on the page anymore (even tho still popular) but It is hard to accept the logic for disqualifying it 

my deck was created after last list was published not like 3 days before the end of the week, there is absolutely no reason not to put it there, it just in the weird limbo that should be simply fixed by editor, even more: there are oer 220 reasons to put it and to make the title state the truth 

atention seeker? of course I seek attention for the decks I create :D isnt this the purpose of the site? :D

you know I am right but you are standing behind not the smartest rule that hurts not only deck creator but also makes the list just simply not accurate

lovely conversation.

I am not angry and I am not looking for shitstorm I am just very surprised and obviously disappointed. If the decks is the most popular one I would expect it to be there. 

you basically wrote "this is what script told us to put on the list", well... c'mon...

its nice to see devs/admins and webmasters interact so casually with the community - people forget they are just people

Ok, i can understand where you're coming from, but our script simply collects decks for this specific article based on the deck's date of creation, so since yours was created in the last day of a "last cycle" (previous week) it obviously got traction only after, you just had the misfortune to slip through the cracks i suppose. I can understand it might feel bad, but you at least had your deck featured on the front page for several days and ppl were obviously interested in your deck and engaged in a conversation with you and upvoted the deck to show you their appreciation, so if you're not just some attention seeker, that should be more than enough for you.

 i must admit its not enough for me - had i not looked at these comments i would have never known about a deck that was apparently the top dog of its pack. While in the end the conversation had an alright finale, there's too much sarcasm and mindreading in there for something that's clearly a flaw. Take your time solving it at the right moment, but don't act as if its working as intended.
