Is the Participant count still broken? It says I have 929 points. Based on the description, I get:
50 points for the newsletter opt-in (Is the Daily Insider not included?);
1 point for posting a comment (Commenting where exactly? The Lounge?);
1 point for signing in each day (Although for some days I don't see that.);
100 points for signing up (May or may not include 1 point for signing in since new is the very first in.);
5 points for voting in a survey.
Based on these, every new member should have 100 points.
929 - 100 - 50 - 5*(maybe a dozen surveys) = 700-ish points.
Based on the number of years I've been here (10 years), I expect this to be much higher. There was a year or two when I went back to school and was less active, but still.

We only have (and are counting) sign-in data for the last couple of years, though a future update will extend that back to when you joined. Comments mean comments posted in Quick Answers. In the initial recalc done last night these were not added. They are currently being added now and should be done in 2-4hrs.

Good to know. Although I assume you have the data, just not in the current database or something since you wouldn't be able to recreate things out of thin air. Unless you're using posts, comments, and logs to reverse-engineer all that info.

Ain't nothing pretty about that. Good luck. I call dibs on left-over points.

Why don't you just make it a point for every day of membership (and maybe raise the bar for color change for Participant). That's easier/faster to calculate.

{Kramer] Why don't you just tell me how many points you'd like? [/Kramer]

If I did then there would be howls of complaint about members who sign up and do nothing getting points.
BTW: I've spent the day going through the mind bending code that trawls our logs to recreate rep events and I found the missing organiser points: they were points earned by reporting articles, not points from editing. Editing points should all be there (and are not organiser points, in any case - no idea what I was thinking when I said that). I'm not 100% that I can recover all, since we have an open bug regarding recording of who reports what article, but I found enough and will also be comparing the points to Friday's database backup just to scrape back every last point I can.
I've also added in some very rough attempts at guessing sign-ins that will boost your participation, at the expense of waiting another day for this to finish.

Out of curiousity, what are you using to parse the logs? Analog.cx, LogParser, etc.?
|
|
|
|
|
Everything (except for one thing) is stored in a database so simple queries (and some ferocious processing) is all that is required.
The exception is article file downloads. IIS logs get parsed by our homebrew parser.

I've recalculated rep points with an initial run and am currently completing the final run. Things will be odd. Please see the other 10,000 messages on this from last night

Actually, you gained 1000 points or so.

Give it time. Chris likes to dangle these points and then rip them away before you get a chance to savour them.

I' tried very hard since the last recalc to get my Organizer points into gold, and finally achieved that, only to have those points rather uncerimoniously moved somewhere else, taking me significantly BACK into silver again. I can't win for losing...

You're gonna have to translate that... What's a "swirly"?

Apparently you stuff his head down the toilet, and flush. Don't look it up on Urban Dictionary, there are other more disturbing meanings which I've only just found out.
