    The fun of this category is to have a random selection, otherwise it gets boring and people stop checking. :)

    But I think it's worth considering to simply add the top n (50? or 100?) nodes of every year into the pool, together with these all time bests.

    Like that "era effects" are mitigated.

    And it's easy to implement.
