5/5 reach magnitude vs the account's own baseline.

Pull score
5/5

How hard it moved viewers to save, share, and comment.

Why this qualified

Running 148x the account's own baseline, this post reached 2.7M views against the 18K a normal post there sees. That is the whole test for an outlier in Handler - reach measured against the account's own median rather than against other accounts, so a small account with a genuine breakout still qualifies while a big account coasting on its size does not.

Toca Life World is the product on screen. Where reach gets a post seen, Pull - here 5/5, 35.4% weighted - is what says viewers acted on it, since saves and shares weigh in hardest and a save is the clearest sign a viewer means to come back.

Broken out, the post drew 566K likes, 2.3K comments, 40K shares, and 56K saves. Those are the numbers the Outlier and Pull scores are built from, nothing modelled or projected.

The full breakdown - why the hook works, the comment-intent read, and the ready-to-shoot dupe kit - lives inside Handler.

Anatomy

The post opens on the first slide of a two-part image carousel, displaying direct gameplay imagery from the mobile game Toca Boca. The post contains no spoken audio and relies on a brief text caption reading 'live laugh love' alongside a game hashtag. The structure consists of two visual beats, moving from an initial in-game setup on slide one to a second static scene on slide two. Pacing is manual and controlled by swiping between the two frames. The app interface and character assets remain on screen across both slides as the sole visual subject.
