Adjust the alternatives ranking to incorporate unfollows and newfollows

[Qwlouse]

The weight of the transitive follows should depend on the number of newfollows VS unfollows.

Suggestion:
If a node has 100 inherited follows, 1 newfollow and 3 unfollows the total weight should be 1 (newfollow) + 25 (100 * 1/4) = 26 because the ratio of newfollows to unfollows is 1:3.

Your suggestion would mean that with 1000 inherited follws, 100 new follows and just 1 unfollow the rating is 100 + 1000 * 1 / 2 = 600. While a proposal with no new and no unfollows keeps a rating of 1000. I think that is not what we want to achieve.

My suggestion: Only count unfollows if they are more than newfollows: newfollows + inherited / max(1,unfollows - newfollows)
With your numbers:
1+100/max(1,3-1)=51
My examples:
100+1000/max(1,1-100)=1100
0+1000/max(1,0-0)=1000

No what I mean with your numbers is:

100 + (1000*100/101) ~= 100 + 990 = 1090

Because here the ratio of newfollows to unfollows is 100:1
