That reduces the scores at the very tippy top for sure, but all of our scores are constantly inflating because of new players joining and leaving.

HaHaaaaaa.... Sully approves of my graph... This is huge!
I love graphs, you know... maybe it's because if you're REALLY smart, they can be manipulated so well...

Re: Inflation Information
It'd be interesting to see more graphs---but honestly, who wants to spend time making graphs for an online gaming website?

Re: Inflation Information
as far as the scores, they seem to be steadily dropping, at least for the players in the top few hundred. I don't know, just seems like many top players are losing more points than general. Was there a change in the scoring system that we are unaware of? If you look at the scoreboard now compared to a year ago, there is a big difference.
