On: Poll: Display points on comments?

[starwed]

"One idea I've had that I think might be interesting is dealing with upvotes or points in terms of logarithmic scales. "

Ah, came here to say exactly this! The difference between 100 points and 120 points just isn't as interesting as the difference between 1 and 10.

Displaying something like floor(ln(points)) instead of points would be the way to go.

I think ceil(sqrt(points)) would be a better choice.
