I wonder why it does't display the number for the top 10?

It isn't some kind of secret, you click on the username you see it.

TIL this exists. Gah.

It's awful isn't it. I've been meaning to get rid of it for years.

Or perhaps to augment it with all sorts of different leaderboardses. That would be more fun.

Kill it with fire in the meantime.

Hey, let me get back my 69th spot first!

What kind of leaderbordses? Ratio character/upvotes? Leaderbord of flagged persons. Leaderbord of long discussions -> i.e. people responding in the same thread. Leaderbord of most flagged comments and people w/ most flagged. Leaderbord on people who use the word karma often.

I have no idea really. Maybe fastest growing karma over the last N days? who knows. Nothing to shame anybody though.

Yeah shame is a bit lame. It should be funny, if possible (if you can make that work out). But not a lot comes to my mind.

pg is also not listed. He still has enough karma for the 4.5 spot.

Moderators are excluded, and pg will always be an HN moderator to us, even though it's his worst nightmare.

Yet another HN feature I had no idea existed!

A particularly respectable throwaway account. :)
