I just made it into the top 2500 in results returned. I am better in points and cpu time. The top 5000 are about 1.4 % of the membership yet they have over 40% of the results(63 million out of 155 million). The top 50 have 13 million alone with the top 4 having 5 million. All of my results would not equal one day's results from the top 4. Even so my results needed many, many trillions of calculations to produce.

This is true. People high in the rankings have generally (like yourself) been with WCG for a very long time. Lower in the rankings, there is a lot more turnover.
Commitment pays (and so does having lots and lots of computers!) |
