This is a weekly, semi-automated post where I will show some statistics and graphs of the development category. It will also serve as a showcase for the staff picks and task requests that were made in the current week. If you have any suggestions or things you'd like to see in this post, then please let me know!

Before, players had to stick with a server on which they have been building since there have been all the worlds they have built. Some people might be built their worlds over years until they're finally done. Now, with STEEM.CRAFT, players will be able to store their worlds directly on the Steem Blockchain and visit them from any server which uses STEEM.CRAFT. This is allowed thanks to the sponge schematics, which allows storing chunks very precise and space efficient.

Score distribution in the development category

Number of contributions per weekday

Average score, reward (STU) and time before review (hours) per week

Unfortunately the average score of contributions is down from 73.1 to 64.4 this week. The average reward has also gone down from 24.4 STU to 21.0 STU. Of course with the average score going down, this was to be expected. Finally, the number of hours it takes for us to get to a contribution and review it (on average) has gone down slightly from 11.5 hours to 10.0 hours.
Number of contributions reviewed per week

As you can see, the weekly number of reviews is down from 17 to 10. However, the number of contributions over the last two weeks (27) is up from the number of contributions in the two weeks prior to that (15). Silver linings and all that.
Contributors
Number of unique contributors per week

With the number of reviews going down this week it's unfortunately not that surprising to see the number of unique contributors go down from 15 to 9 either.
