   A weird response that doesn't surprise me at all.

   

  This list must be a popularity contest.

  Definitely not a popularity contest.  I've already said multiple times it is a calculation that was created almost 20 years ago and has not changed at all over the years.

  Lottolaughs has not posted for more than two years.  If she had continued posting, it is possible she would have qualified sometime in the past two years.

  She wrote many programs and was a class act.   She worked hard on programs for the lotterypost members , so she chose to do other things.   I miss her postings.

  Say hey!

  What is the calculation??

  Does it consist of contributions: systems, hours spent helping members?   In that case onlymoney, lottolaughs etc should be elite.  Lottolaughs should be in the top 5. 

  Have all these people even posted a single system???  Really?

  Lakerben!

  1. What do the blue bars next to my name in the forums represent?There are a total of eight possible blue bars, representing 9 levels of member experience ratings.  (The first level — "New Member" — has zero blue bars, making nine levels total.)The Lottery Post system is programmed with an automated system that once a night looks at all the members to see if any have qualified to be promoted to the next level.  If a member is found to be qualified, they are sent a Private Message by the system, and one more blue bar is added to their profile.The precise formula is secret, because the last thing we want is for people to be posting in a certain manner solely for the purpose of being promoted.  That would make a poor rating system.The one thing we can confidently say is that posting lots of messages will not get you promoted quicker.  The formula specifically rates well for quality and consistency, not quantity.  People who consistently participate in the forums are more valued by the system than someone who checks in to say hello here and there.The ratings do not say that one member is "better" than another, but the ratings do help quite nicely when judging the reliability of a reply, particularly when conflicting responses are given.  Someone with a high rating may have discussed the same topic before, perhaps multiple times, so their answers have the benefit and wisdom of previous discourse on the subject.

  We know the formula is an ancient Chinese 20 year secret and "definitely not a popularity contest" so all you have to do is break code. What do they all have in common?
