Hey Carol! One interesting statistic might be to understand that the Boost Nomination Pilot is only responsible for half the stories that get Boosted. The other half are Boosted directly by the curation team.

This means that even though I'm not able to grow my beta program as quickly as I might like, our internal curation team is reviewing and Boosting stories all day every day.
