The past few times I've logged in here (sadly, days or sometimes a week apart) I'm seeing big bumps in XP. Most recently, the XP nodelet congratulated me on +92.

At first I thought it was some recent post getting a lot of attention, but I'm not seeing that. Then I thought maybe a really old post hit reddit or something. But when I search my posts by reputation I'm not seeing new top contenders. That leaves the possibilities that I have no idea what post is getting upvoted so much, or that a bunch of posts are getting upvoted a little, but continuously over the past month or so, or that there's a bug.

Has anyone else noticed this behavior?

to format your post, it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":


  • Posts are HTML formatted. Put <p> </p> tags around your paragraphs. Put <code> </code> tags around your code and data!
  • Titles consisting of a single word are discouraged, and in most cases are disallowed outright.
  • Read Where should I post X? if you're not absolutely sure you're posting in the right place.
