With your posting rhythm, how often does the audience notice you? Your star turns white while posting; its signal decays between posts.
Try this Raise engagement-power while it runs (it takes effect live) and heard-count climbs faster. Raising reply-share adds replyers but needs Reset, since roles are set at setup.
About this model Where it ends up The run stops after 168 ticks. Compare posts-count with heard-count: heard-count counts every notice, repeats included, so at the defaults about 18 to 20 posts draw 400 to 560 of them.
A starting point for models tuned from aggregate X statistics. Connect X read-only, or use the presets: you are one account agent, and everyone else is a lurker or a replyer. No post text and no real follower graph are used.
What's in the source: the x import and x.load(x.profile), which set username, audience-size, posts-per-day, peak-hour, reply-share, engagement-power and sense-radius from your profile; an accounts breed (you) and a people breed with lurker and replyer roles; and one step per simulated hour. You post with a chance that peaks at peak-hour, setting your signal to 3 + engagement-power/10, which decays by 20% an hour. Replyers turn toward you while the signal is above 0.5, and people within sense-radius notice it with a chance that grows with the signal. Change the noticing rule first, then add states or breeds. The run lasts 168 ticks.
