A look at rep points over the years

[ScottyIce]

 

After reviewing those charts for over 2 minutes, I feel like I just don't belong here. I feel like I am the kid getting picked last in dodgeball, and then the first one to get nailed in the face with the hardest ball.

 

But people pay attention to what you say. They even quote you! LINK

 

 

Well then that's settled. That's all I've ever cared about anyways!

Still wanna know who the phantom +1'r really was who had the power to drop 30 of them in one post.

Is it any coincidence that former members of the Pony Posse are so high on the rep list? No it is not.

Rep Points started being "a thing" on 1/17/10, or just under six years ago.

 

Couple of things happened in the past couple of months to change standings that have been in place for years.

 

Since I started keeping track of Rep, The Dude has been #2 in the rankings. That changed sometime between 11/2/15 and 1/4/16. Your new #2 is NUance, who has been steadily creeping up on The Dude for over a year.

 

Your updated Top 25:

 

 

Some stats about NUance & The Dude:

 

Days since 7/2/2012 (the day The Dude started at #2 on the Rep List): 1,281 Days

 

Posts since 7/2/12:

The Dude, 9,151

NUance, 12,560

 

Rep since 7/2/12:

The Dude, 4,041

NUance, 3,941

 

Percentage of Post-to-Rep:

The Dude, 44.2%

NUance, 31.4%

 

Here's a chart showing NUance's chase of The Dude over the past few years. It's been fun to watch.

 

 

 

 

Also today, for the first time since 9/2012, there's a new #2 on the overall posts list. With nearly 1,900 posts in the last two months (an average of 30 posts per day), Mavric has overtaken BIGREDIOWAN as the #2 overall poster on HuskerBoard.

Ha ha! I thought I was the only one that noticed when Mav passed BRI a few weeks ago. I can remember when I started lurking, and then posting—well before the poster known as knapplc was a mod—I thought no one would ever catch BRI. Now two have passed him and several are creeping up close to him.

 

This all leads me to believe that we have *way* too much times on our hands.

Looking back through all this I have no idea how I fall where I do on any of this stuff. Never been a mod, never been all that terribly popular or well-liked, and am prone to disappear for months at a time. Who the hell am I?

Weird how I'm the only one in the top 14 not above 10k...

It's been a year since I updated this and there's been some more changes.

 

Mavric now has the overall post lead, surpassing me sometime in September. Mav's probably going to top 40,000 posts on HB in a few weeks. At the rate I'm posting, it'll be a while before I get there, and it'll be forever before anyone else tops 30,000 posts.

 

Mav also jumped NUance for #2 on the Rep rankings in late December, around the time he guessed the answer to my little Status Update trivia game I've played over the last couple months. When Mavric debuted in the Top 50 (which is where I cut off the rankings), 7/1/13, he clocked in at #46 with a modest 3,236 posts & 279 rep.

 

The Dude, who held the #2 slot for years and years, has dropped down to #5, mostly due to posting far less than he used to. Landlord is at #4 behind me, Mavric & NUance.

 

Everyone in the Top 25 has 1,500+ Rep. Everyone in the Top Ten has 4,000+ Rep. Everyone in the Top 5 has at least 5,000 rep.

 

So here's the current Top 25. Plenty of fun folks in this, posting regularly, chipping in with good conversation.

 

 

 

 

 

A relatively new tradition has been the Merry +1ness thread. I think it started last year (2015) and this was the 2nd year. This year, I went through the thread and totted up all the points everyone was given. Here's my chart:

 

 

GSG was by far the biggest recipient of good cheer, followed by MLB 51, NUance, then Tood. The numbers on the two far right columns are the person's total rep as of yesterday, and the far right percentage is how much of their overall Rep they gained from the 2016 Merry +1ness thread. MLB, for example, gained almost 14% of his total current rep from that thread. What a way to spread holiday cheer.
