  (def feed-rank (p)
    (let min (minutes-since p!time)
      (+ (/ (let base (- p!score .9)
              (if (> base 0) (expt base .8) base))
            (expt (/ (+ min timebase*) 60) gravity*))
         (if p!kids (com-boost p) .0)
         (/ 90 (+ (expt min 2) 420)))))
It's in that com-boost function, which is an exponential. We were just discussing boosting the boost.
