    Some stats of my levels to take reference from. I am curious if other creators experience the same phenomenon?

    2. Odd bot up (2 likes, 5 ratings) vs Odd bot up 2 (2 likes, 2 ratings)
    3. What's inside? (2 likes, 3 ratings) vs What's inside 2 (5 likes, 2 ratings) ---> Comparable
    4. Free Time (8 likes, 10 ratings) vs Free Time 2 (2 likes, 5 ratings)
    5. Easy level (5 likes, 9 ratings) vs Easy level 2 (5 likes, 11 ratings) ---> Sequel is more popular

    As shown by the list, 75% of my sequel levels are less popular than the original. I wonder why?
