Graphs

When we look at graph with users' upvotes in time we see there is nothing extra ordinary about it. So many users, so much time. Everything's fine. Let round it a little bit and just say it look almost like 1:1 (total upvotes : passed time - straight line). A lot of people liked this introduction.

Playing with statistics is a funny thing. What would you like to see next time?

This is great. How did you pull this data? I would like to see this on some middling post as well.

I used steemd.com and details from advanced mode.

Interesting view on the statistics...

Personally I would like to see an analysis on the WHY.
Guess this would be the holy grail on steemit village.

OK... But what's WHY? I really don't know.

the question "why"
why this article was trending
why the whales upvoted an introduction in that way
why the article stayed 25 hours trending
etc etc

I wish I would know those answers so I could write great introduction :)
