My reason for not posting is that in most cases I feel that there is no point in posting for posting's sake, especially where my point has previously been covered.

Graham,

The new 'gizmo' seems a little confused at the moment.

Just went to look at both the all time and the 30 day and saw some very unexpected results.

 

[Lord Paul]

MMMMMMMMMM

On the all time list I'm sliding down the table faster than Derby County last season

But on the 30 day chart - I'm going back up

It's not confused, I am!

No, what's happened is that thetrekkies have been fiddling and at least some of the bugs have been splatted. Also, I've been fiddling with the settings to try and get the table, both 'all time' and '30 day', to accurately reflect site activity.

If you look at the 30 day table now Peter is at No.1 and the reason for this is due to him submitting a user review today and quite recently he put one or two photos in the Gallery. He's also been active on the forum.

The table settings are complicated, and it's going to take me some time to come up with the settings I'll be entirely satisfied with.

Just remember that the table is to reflect ALL site activity, with some things like article submissions and user reviews carrying a little more weight than other things. This isn't to demean, for instance, forum posts, but I think everyone will agree that, say,a 1000 word article, plus images, should carry more weight than a possible one sentence forum post.

But bear with me for a while as I experiment with settings over the next week or two.

I keep sliding and still have loads of unassigned articles - something to do with nom de plumes!.

 

[Sean Meeghan]

At least you're on the first page! I'm now below Bryan Baron on the 2nd page /forum/smilies/sad_smiley.gif

 

[Bryan Baron 2]

I see nothing wrong with that Sean./forum/smilies/smile_smiley.gif

 

[Brian Whyte]

I seem to be stuck at the bottom of the first page in both lists /forum/smilies/big_smile_smiley.gif

 

[Bryan Baron 2]

Funny Brian thats were i use to be. Still am on the overall list.

If you read the box at the top of the table it says:

"....and you can see your own position at the bottom of each page "
