I’ll be honest, I don’t know that I understand it in full, but I think I’m most of the way there. I think the main thing I’m not quite sure on is if some people would be getting Minecraft alerts, for example, every X days while other people’s settings might be every Y days. Is that the case? If so, there could be fewer people on the X cadence and they might not engage because there aren’t as many people joining.
But again, I might not be fully grasping that part.
I see. Well, let’s say some people have their alert set at “level” 4 (2^4 = 16 days) and some have it at 6 AKA 64 days. While the group 4 might be smaller than the group 6 and they might not have much luck finding others online when it’s RDV4 - about every 4th time they will meet the group 6 because 64/16 = 4 and as I mentioned above, every higher level alert always includes any lower ones AKA every time it’s RDV6 - it’s also RDV5, RDV4, RDV3, RDV2, RDV1 and RDV0. So, if you have your reminder threshold at 4 not finding enough people online - you could either bump it up to 5 or 6 (which are guaranteed to be larger (tho rarer)) or you could leave it at 4 and just ignore the alerts unless they are 6+ for example. Let me know if you have any other questions or if you need me to clarify or re-explain something as I would be more than delighted to do so. :D
