Actually a lot of those posts are pretty recent, due to the inflation in the number of votes available each day.

You raise a valid point but I think it's questionable at best to automatically assume that the inflation of votes balances out the artificial votes cast for nodes advertised on the "Best Nodes" list. It would take some number crunching to figure it out. My gut tells me that in a couple of months it will be near impossible for anyone to ever get on the "Best Nodes" list. We'll have to wait and see.

$MCF = "Most Clueless Friar Abbot";
$nysus = $PM . $MCF;
