That's what I meant by inactive. It was more noticeable before you started your day. When I didn't come here for two days, I went up two positions after a few zaps and comments. It definitely has to do with the algorithm.

You are wrong. I am never "inactive" on SN.
I am just watching sometimes, not saying nothing. Just to see how others are reacting.
Sometimes I do not want to comment, exactly to let others to come up.
If I would want to be always on top position, It would be easy for me.
As you notice, I do not post/comment in all territories... only on few.

I've noticed that I've been getting fourth place quite a few times these past two weeks. But I think that was when David and Darth were inactive. I think you were ahead of me at least once, which was when I didn't come to SN for two days.
