i was wondering if the hits to kudos ratio on my fics is consistent so i did what any normal person would do and plugged all of that data into excel and did some calculations and it turns out its a pretty linear relationship which i wasnt expecting. i thought my fics with more hits would have a lower kudos ratio but nope. it fluctuates between about 10-16% for most of them. roughly 1 in every 10 people who clicks on one of my fics leaves kudos

look how linear that relationship is. thats crazy

the only outliers i could see were :

  1. my longest fic, so most of the hits are people coming back to read each chapter and therefore not leaving more kudos because they have already done so
  2. my most recent fic which hasnt had enough time to marinate yet

very interesting stuff
