I’m more interested in how individual topics were chosen

Like why programming but not other sub-categories lol

15

I’ll go and try to get even more

16

It took all public categories and sorted by # of topics, I believe.

17

The review categories can be configured with the yearly_review_categories Site Setting.

Do I misunderstand that? lol

18

Wonder what overall stats are without including Mafia and other games
