02 · Is this figure normal

Where this award sits

A single large number tells you nothing on its own. What matters is whether this programme pays like this routinely or whether this was the one time it did.

#1 of 10 here

$575 this programme's median

$1,500 its largest published

#328 of 1,532 awards we hold

This is the largest award we have ever seen this programme publish, out of 10 awards. At 2.6× the median, it is well above what this programme normally prints.

Every figure here is drawn only from awards a platform chose to publish, which is a minority of what gets paid. Read the median as "of the payouts made public", never as "what this programme pays".

Where this came from. One row of a public platform feed, stored as published and never edited. We hold no report title, no write-up and no reproduction steps, because the feeds do not carry them and we do not go looking for them. A withheld name stays withheld; if a finder later asks the platform to un-name them, the next sweep un-names them here. Absence of an award figure is publication policy, not evidence a programme did not pay.
