@dhjl has formidable defenses, but they’re surmountable (as are everyone’s). He’s at the top of the charts because he puts in ridiculous hours. Not to belittle his commitment or accomplishments, but this isn’t a matter of being “great” at the game. it’s a matter of doing the time. There’s no reward in the game for being “great.” Ironically, the forum game is actually a better test of that than the game’s own metrics.
