Every day presents a fresh opportunity to climb the ranks, with each upvote and completed offer increasing reach and influence. ## What is Discovery? * Ranked charts * Charts for each regions, countries, and * Charts for Passports, Offers, and Content * Charts resets daily * Historic charts for any day, week, month, season ## Why Discovery matters Discovery gets you discovered. It stirs the attention economy, and lets offers be seen. Local charts put up blinders so locals can find your work first, and come together to be with you to the national and global level. ## Ups by RA Upvotes, or Ups, cost 1 RA each. ### Local RA After level 4, you start earning a National version of RA (like COLRA, USARA) only useful in that Nation. Votes on local charts bubble up to higher charts, so topping a national chart gets you discovered at a global level. ## Ranking Algorithm The default ranking algorithm is to add all Ups and the total of all offers in RA. ## Strategy Because offers and upvotes are the same weight, instead of spending RA on Ups to boost your content, you can convince people to take your offer. If your offer isn't being seen, you can boost it with Ups to get it seen. If your offer charges RA, you are earning RA plus the extra exposure from climbing the charts. ## Curveball: Chiefs Chiefs, elected by [Recurve](broken://pages/BNcGw4NF79JtbYyZSs6f), have the ability to customize Discovery algorithms regionally. They can choose to place more weight on local RA ups or local offers, or change the default display to weight connections from their region. ## Accolades Achieving a cumulative ranked position for a season (three months) earns you special recognition on your Passport, forever stored on-chain. This is your regional, national, or global stamp of "the people love me". --- # Agent Instructions This documentation is published with GitBook.
