Reputations

Ah, so you notice a puzzle in my mind.

I do major repping in two forums: Mirth (majority of it in the aforementioned CC) and Books. By the time I switch to the other realm I usually have given enough reps to others so I can rep someone in the other field again.

But you, Prof. Hedgethistle, Sauce, Mithalwen, Rimbaud, and lately, Lalwendë, trouble this scheme of mine. You make excellent posts on both realms.

With this in mind, I wonder: how could davem still be on top? (not that I'm against it, of course.) Is it because his posts manage to make most of the top rep givers click that scale button? Has he created a program to double the points given? Do spiders rep him?

Hmmm . . . maybe those spiders are his minions, which also allows him to find excellent references on the Web.

EDIT: I forgot. Not all in ME Mirth give reps, or give relatively lower points.

Plus see the last sentence on his latest CBC post. So I guess that throws the spider theory out the window.
