I just checked the Top Participants standings and noticed a big jump in the points I have been awarded. After a bit of research and testing, I discovered that 4 points are being awarded for each iidea submitted (OK, that's fair enough I guess) ... but 1 point is being given for each vote made.

There are nearly 500 ideas, so theoretically anyone could receive nearly 500 points for simply clicking each of them. Even worse is that they could receive points for voting them Down! Whose brilliant idea was that? This makes the Top Participants scoring even less meaningful than it already is.

I understand now why the list is titled Top Participants, and not MVP. (No disrespect intended or implied for anyone in the list)

Maybe I'm just being overly crabby because I feel like I'm coming down with a head and chest cold (flu ?).
