So rankings are computed weekly? ( majroj )
That might explain the disparity between the "My Profile" ranking (271) and the ranking of someone else in that covetted spot when I go to the home page, open the "Everything Else" category, then list them by popularity.
I'm still stuck as to how active bloggers can sometimes hav lower ratings than inactive( gone) ones? (Now THAT"s a real dash or reality!!).
