Hello,

I always wondered why there is no Numista rarity 99, 98, 96? and thought maybe this could be improved a bit to make use of all the numbers?

Maybe there could be two branches to the function? One for less than 10 users (u):
R = 100 - u.
and then remap the current function from 11 users and up, defined in [0...89].

Maybe branching can also be at a lower threshold, like at 5? Form then on, the function seems to work ok.

hope this makes sense

Users __ Rarity Old __ Rarity New
___ 0 ____ 100 _________ 100 __
___ 1 _____ 97 __________ 99 __
___ 2 _____ 95 __________ 98 __
...
___ 5 _____ 93 __________ 95 __
...
__ 10 _____ 88 __________ 90 __
__ 11+ ___ remapped function
I suppose that logarithmic function is used but not linear. This easily explaines why we dont have 99 98..and 1 is almost impossible to reach cause linked to extremely big number. If to divide function into 2parts...linear from 100 to 90.. Then log function... It could make sense and more feasible for users.
