necessity is the "Mother of Invention" which in iHubville means that one must figure how to manipulate the Most Read without getting caught

That's way too long to make people wait to have their latest and greatest play made known to the world, Dave.

In 7 days, it'll be dead again.

That is not what I said. I said that there has to be a minimum threshold met in the prior 7 day period. As new activity occurs, it factors first into the current period, then into the prior 7-day period. Comparative periods are continuous rolling and based are clock based, not calendar based.

Bottom line: An otherwise dead board will not appear in Breakout Boards during the 24 hours period following a dead period. It may appear on other Hot Lists sooner, but not that one. This is by design and no changes are contemplated.
