What Counts as a View?

For example, let’s say I wanted to (not really) farm views on my SUPER COOL AWESOME PROJECT ™. Would I just refresh the page? Would I click the flag, refresh, and then click again? Can there only be one view per person?
And what about on my account? Would it count if I did anything above a bunch of times?

I think it counts a view when you click the flag, but only once per person

1) I dont think your views count if you are the creator of your own project
2) there can be more than 1 view per person
3) A project view counts if the green flag is clicked

In fact, it does. All projects shared start with one view, which is the creator of the project

I think that
  • A view is counted only if the user is logged out or wasn't counted before
  • The view is counted when green flag is pressed or editor opens
  • Only one view is counted before the project is reloaded
  • The creator of the project counts as 1 view

One thing: the view limit for one person resets when the project is unshared (I discovered this when I managed to rack up 30 views from my alt account on accident when I was testing a phrase only chat and I kept unsharing and resharing)

Actually, that is the only time it counts views from you. After that, it doesn't.
