Less time to stay on the popular reel

I'll get right to the point- I often see "popular" people uploading a normal project, but somehow it gets like 200 diamonds, and stays on the popular reel for an entire week. Sometimes there are like 3 of these projects on the reel at the same time. This is annoying, because I'd like to see new creations get on the reel, and if there's a really good creation that gets, let's say, 40 diamonds, it won't get on the reel because it's getting drowned out by these projects which have already had plenty of time to shine.

So it would be nice if you could lower the time limit to like a day or two. A creation doesn't really need an entire week to flaunt it's popularity, and during that time, plenty of deserving creations would have been posted, only to be choked out by these projects.

Ya the other funny thing is that I see absolute crap things on the popular reel like classic servers with 5 diamonds and lame 15% done texture packs.

I think there should be either: 1) A max amount of skins one person can have on popular reel at once 2) A max time a skin can be on the reel, or 3) have like at least 1 or 2 spots for non popular reel. I know that everyone likes the popular skinners, even me, and they are really skilled, but many of their skins get on the popular reel.

This is pisses me off very much to... I would like say mabey 1 hr 30 minuets for everything on the reel then somthing else. Or mabey multiple reels? the most popular and then some random people? cause come on face it most of us will never get on that reel random fixes it

A random reel would be fairly awkward... where do we draw the line between "popular" artists and not popular artists? Besides, then everyone would just want to get on the "popular" popular list. :P

I think shorter times are all we really need. 1 hour seems a bit short though. I was thinking along the lines of 1 day, maybe two.

Any mod care to comment? A prime example of this issue is Minecraft-PG5's "lever as a button" thing. It's a tiny, less than 10x10 redstone mechanism that is not original, innovative, or even interesting in the least. And it has 70 diamonds, while some entire redstone computers only have like 5. This popularity thing is really bugging me...
