After skipping the ranking in November because of lack of time, we are back with the ranking for December. This ranking defines who will get supported by 
Content quality and content points
The quality of the submitted posts was ok. The submitted posts got between 6 and 10 points. Since there was no ranking last month, a lot of people who haven't submitted a post this month fell out of the ranking.
Only people who have at least once submitted a post in the last 3 months are eligible to be in the ranking. People who fall under 4 content points because their quality is too low or because they don't submit a post for several months are taken out of the ranking.
Content points matters
A couple of months ago, we started not only to look at the submitted post itself but also to the other posts created by an author. If the difference in quality between the submitted post and the other posts is too big, we multiplied the content points by 0.5. If the quality of the submitted post is more or less equal to the other posts, the content points are multiplied by 1. This is an attempt to make sure that the ranking can't be gamed by people who create low effort posts.
Reduced support for repetitive give away posts
Unfortunately, some people still believe that they can submit a post and expect to get upvotes from
Asset points
We also introduced a change regarding the asset points a couple of months back. Only the owned CTPSB tokens and CTPSB Gold and Collector NFT's count towards the asset points.
We encourage people who want to be in this ranking to buy some CTPSB tokens. By owning these tokens, you become part owner of this project. Not only you get points for the ranking but you also support the project and you participate in it's evolution through the increase of the value of the token. Another way to earn CTPSB tokens is to delegate Hive Power to the
Calculation of the ranking
Finally, the Content points and the Asset points are multiplied with each other to define the ranking. You can find more details about that in this post

Only 17 people supported in January
This month only 17 authors were ranked. Some people lost their ranking because they fell under 4 content points due to lack of content quality or because they haven't submitted a post for a certain time. This means that all ranked people will be supported in January and that they will get more important votes on their content! I will need a couple of days to update the settings.
