I've noticed that the same 3 projects keep popping up everytime I go to the front page in the "Scratch Design Studio" row. I want to see if anyone else has noticed this/ is having the same problem before I contact the Scratch Team.

I think I'm getting this, too.
Is anyone seeing the same book projects by chalkmarrow, oliver255, and AddZero?

Now I'm seeing Chalkmarrow, AddZero, and 12three. It does seem to be giving preference to Chalkmarrow and AddZero. Maybe only the last slot is being selected randomly?

now it's:
Icaro by ffred, red kayak book … by oliver255, and SeBook-0.1 e-bo… by AddZero

Ah, well, the Scratch Wiki says it should be changing every few hours. I think I read somewhere else that it was supposed to be 30 minutes, so I really don't know.

Nope - I think all the project choosing is done by the server (all the way at MIT) and to make things a little less stressful on the server, they only choose them every few hours. It's pretty much exactly the way the "New Projects" row functions - you'll notice it only updates every five minutes or so so that the server doesn't get too exhausted.

ok then why is it the same projects i saw this morning?
