Oh boy! The flippening has happened! The terrible (

Congrats! I guess I shouldn't tell you to calculate how many Merits each of you earned on average per day. I really shouldn't tell you that, that would be mean Tongue

Give it time, extrapolating the past months shows you'll be ahead of 1miau in 6 months.

You foresaw the future! It didn't take 6 months, but 425 days, 16h 28' 07" (which is very close to 6 months) -- but it HAPPENED!

He’s moving, but in a very different way from the vast majority of us. He usually has some merit showers, which translate into vertical walls on the graph. Usually those happen around April 1st, and on other relevant forum events.

Theymos has really mastered gaming the Merit system Cheesy

Explain me the Cantillon effect without mentioning the Cantillon effect.

This is a good one and actually worth a thread of its own @fillipone! Wink

It's funny because I remember discussing this at university a very long time ago. In short and abstract terms: it is a rich-get-richer scheme. The winners win more and the losers lose what the winners won more. As losers can't become winners, but winners could turn into losers, the number of winners decreases whereas the number of losers increases, meaning less winners gain from more losers, thereby shifting wealth or income further from the many to the few.

With regard to merits and Bitcointalk, the social phenomenon of a queue in front of a restaurant getting longer only because it is already long describes it quite well in my opinion. Though nobody really loses anything when somebody else wins in terms of merits. That is where it lacks a bit behind the initial meaning of the effect. But there are a lot of nice examples to approximate the effect with analogies.

However, you seem to have missed how fast icopress is moving toward us, his climbing pace seems to be the best for the past couple of years.

Indeed, icopress has become a famous campaign manager known for his high quality standards and the community is rewarding this handsomely with Merit.
