Our good friends over at Elgato (also part of the Corsair family) are launching a new product line today, Elgato Neo.

We recently discovered an issue in the algorithm which generates the emails which didn't prioritize drops that were launching that day in communities you were interested in but perhaps at a lower percentage of interest (based on interaction) than other communities.
As an example, if you were heavily interested in Watches (based on pageviews, purchases, etc..) and then also had subscribed to 13 other communities, we would first try to fill a quota of products based on your interest in Watches, which means you may get 5 products from Watches, which may then bump out a few products of say the 13th community you're subscribed to which could have been newer.
We have a fix coming out for this specific problem in the next couple of weeks and I appreciate your feedback as well as your patience.
In terms of the algorithm, we will also be working on: - Increasing personalization to reduce staleness based on whether or not you've already viewed a drop (to your note above) - Improving the signal inputs which dictate which communities we think you may be interested in - Potentially increasing the number of products that are sent (yes @JessOpals we will be careful to ensure it doesn't get overwhelming, and sustain a tenant of freshness & relevance)
Please feel free to reach out to me with email suggestions via this thread whenever you like.
