Project shows up in two channels on front page?

If you've seen the front page recently you probably already know that my project "Balloon Pop" is a featured project.

Scroll further down and you will also see it's on the Top-Loved channel.

Now forgive me if I'm wrong about this, but I thought a person can only have a maximum of one project slot on the front page, yet "Balloon Pop" appears twice. Is this some kind of bug?

It has been doing this for a few days now. It would have to be a bug, unless the Scratch team changed the rules.  neutral

Re: Project shows up in two channels on front page?

May someone tell me whats wrong if a project is in more than 1 category...oh wait it prevents others stuff from being noticed, its real unfair...sorry I came back to school on the 3rd and it sucks cause its before labor day and its too early for me, its why I'm all out of sorts and disgusted.

It's happened before when a project is in featured projects.

Hmm, well the project is no longer on Top-Loved (yay, more front page diversity!). I wonder what caused the glitch in the first place...

Friend's Latest Project can show projects by a person who is already in a different section of the front page. The other two sections should not. I have not seen this happening since I posted that message yesterday, but if you see it please post a screenshot of it or just tell me when and what was showing up. Thanks!

It's happening again - In top remixed and top-loved. Good luck fixing it, it doesn't seem to want to go away...

I don't see the problem. Maybe it went away, if you see it, please take a screenshot and post it here. Thanks!

Re: Project shows up in two channels on front page?

I didn't know this was a bug... but now I know!

Just curious Andrés: why is your title 'ScratchR' instead of 'Scratch Team'?
