Is "Even More" entirely "Featured Artists"?

I went through the "Even More" part of the sale a couple of days ago. It appeared to consist entireyly items from the "Featured Artists". Not that this is a "bad thing", mind you...

But, in the interest of saving time, was I right, and do I not have reason to look through the "Even More" if I've looked through each featured artist?

    At one point it featured items that weren't on the featured artists list, but I could be wrong o_o

  • even more is a lazy way to look at everything without picking a PA. if you are like me, right now no particular PA means anything to me. So i can just browse the huge assortment and maybe find something.

    @larsmidnatt, thank you. That agrees with what I'm seeing.

    @mtl1, I jumped around the current "Even More", and couldn't find anything that wasn't an artist in the sale, so I'm going to conclude that it's currently not showing anything that isn't in the featured artust category. But thank you for trying to help, anyway.

    If you go by the scrolling item banner, it has a lot of items that *aren't* currently a part of the featured PAs... It's kind of weird because it's as if it's de-synced from the "shop all" page.

    A lot of vendors who haven't shown up in the featured stores are appearing in Even More.  Silver, Pretty 3D, Eva1...

  • So does the Even More catagory ever change or is it static?

    seems to change almost daily. like at one point over 2000 items, today around 1400.

    It changes every day, but many items remain for several days, so you see a few new ones each day.  Weirdly, I've also noted that items that I've previously bought are showing up as visible in it, even when the rest of the store is hiding them. 

  • Errrrgh! Thank you both.

    OK, I tried a quick investigation. My conclusion is that "Featured Artists" is a superset of "Even More". If you look at all the featured artists, you've seen everythng and don't need to check "Even More". If you look at "Even More", you miss 4 of the 17 "Featured Artists".

    The "filter by artist" list for "Even More" shows 16 artists. DAZ Originals, goldtassel, and silencer apper in "even more" but not in "featured artists". All their items are collaborations with people who do appear in featured artists, so nothing special tere. That leasves 13 artists in "Even More".

    There are 17 "Featured Artists". NeilV 1, ArtCollaborations, PandyGirl, and Ellindra do not appear in "Even More", but do appear in "Featured Artists". The other 13 are the ones that appear in "Even More".

  • My guess is that is a mistake. There is not actual featured artists category, just the sub categories. Even more seems like it was intending to be all of the artists. Lots of people don't shop by artists so thats why categories like even more are created.

    Who knows what happened, but humans do helm this stuff.

    Thank you. That's the missing puzzle piece. No need to check the "Shop All" part of even more, just the featured artists and the scrolling ribbon.

    I find that checking the featured artists is much easier for me than checking "Shop All". I just check the new artists for that day.

  • Shop all is easiest when it's done right. just filter from a large pool. Thats why sites do these shop all categories. Metrics-wise many people prefer one big category.

    And in this case not everyone keeps track fo the PA from day to day. I check in each day and have no clue who is on sale at any given moment lol. I wish they would fix it...
