...cakes that were a favorite of 2 users weren't anywhere near the "most saved" on the home page?

This isn't an observation about the quality of the cakes, just the apparent decrease in active users.

I noticed that the other day and thought it was odd.

I've been noticing this for a while now. I am hoping that this will be addressed in the beta testing for this site. Normally, most saved photos got 47+ added to favourites.

Perhaps there should be a minimum number of most saved clicks for these to appear as the favourites. The beta testing could handle that easily.
