in thread PM Statistics?

I didn't know about Number of Monks by Level. Very neat. Ovid++ just for that :-)

What is the difference between Saints in our Book and Perl Monk's Best Users? They look the same to me.

    Saints in our Book is a listing of the most verbose monks, those with the most writeups. Perl Monk's Best Users appears to be a listing of the top monks in terms of XP.

    - Ozymandias

    Update: I guess not. Saints in our Book - unless I'm succumbing to Alzheimers - used to be ordered by writeups, but it does not appear to be any longer. So I may be wrong. Whoops. <G>

      I see. It's confusing because both lists are ordered by XP, and both contain almost the same users (which doesn't contradict what you said, since the set of users with most XP may be the set of users with most writeups). The only difference is that Perl Monk's Best Users contains superuser, who doesn't have any writeups and yet is a friar. Who is that guy? Is it a special account maintained by vroom or something like that?

      I completely forgot about that! Ozymandias is right. Saints in our Book used to ordered by number of writeups. The intention was to acknowledge those who have contributed to building the site by making posts. I wonder why it was changed?
