Default Points needed to make it to top 1000

So as of right now you 8566 points to make it to top 1000 in order to get listed on the team... And as soon as the next person (hopefully me) makes the top 1000 the point requirement will be 8674 (Guessing because the 2 places between the 1000th and 997th have been active in the last 7 days so so the 997 will soon be 1000th).

How long will it take the average n00b folder to earn 8600ish points... I hope that we (me included) n00bs don't get discurraged by such a seemingly tough task when first starting out!

Do you guys think there is anyway to change the rules and look up user names on the list? To get us n00bs in the loop faster! Whats going to happen when you get 1000 active folders? Then no n00b will ever make that top 1000 unless he spends a tone on a farm...

How fast depends on your PPD.
It all adds up and sooner or later you'll hit the 1000- mark
Heck, even back in the day when there were fewer folders and less points to earn with minimal systems it took a while, I know because I've BTDT

But the 1000th I am talking about is a moving target.

The 1000th place, once you get 1000 active members, comes down to catching then passing which sooner or later could be next to impossible for n00bs coming in due to the head start that the older members have... Right now the 1000th spot is set that member has not been active for over 50 days so I will surely pass him in 5 active days...

But if OCN gets 1000 active folders and keeps them then a n00b might never reach that list. I am not worried about the list really for me but for someone that thrives on competting might get upset and quite...

Cool so no where near 1000 active yet (Well bad in a way but I was worrying about a non issue - atleast for a while.)

I've been watching you Marsey... but I'm not worried. I should be pushing a little bit harder pretty soon once I get a couple of more machines running.
