I'm right next to you on the leaderboard: https://news.ycombinator.com/leaders

.. but from the opposite scoring. I rarely submit anything, I'm just a poster in the comments section. One of these days I'm going to scrape out all my comments so I can rank them by score, maybe recycle them into Content.

Couple of key tips:

- if you're going to post an interesting link in the comments, take a moment to post it to /new first

- activity is highest at the top of threads, so piggyback off that

- if you're going to post jokes, make sure you post the explanation as well in the same comment

I have "noprocrast" set to 20 minutes on / two hours off, usually. So usually one or two 20 minute sessions per day.

It's hilarious to me that I only recognize 3-5 of the top ten posters, because I almost never pay attention to who submitted a story.

now things will go downhill.

I vaguely recall slashdot did something like "karma: excellent" or something to minimize karma as a score?
