Description
When you click on the link "Most popular this month" it only has about 2 or 3 ideas on the first page that are not already on the front page of "Most popular this week". What this basically means is that this link is broken. There are two options to fix this problem:

1) Only show ideas greater than 1 week old
-or-
2) Give priority to the week 2, 3, and 4 ideas (ie: give week 1 ideas a 7-14 day sorting penalty).

Once this sorting issue is fixed, brainstorm will work much better. I filed a bug report on it, but it got no response and I think it is slipping through the cracks.

What do you think? Are there any other ways you can see to solve this problem?

A much better algorithm, based on the 2nd proposition, was uploaded.
The "Most popular this month" list is now much more realistic!

A fix will be uploaded in the next update, using the second proposed solution: The week 1 ideas will have their date of creation set to one week for the ordering computation.
