Surrealix, I don't know programming so maybe this is obvious to others,
but the participant ranking (the code you have here) - is that based only on the most
active language? |

Yes:

EDIT : I guess I should clarify that by 'entry' I mean the highest ranking language.

Ah got it. Actually I'm a little confused now. I can see here:

There's a person with 2-0 above one with 3-0 and one with 1-1
towards the top and another with 1-1 at the bottom.

Edit2: okay that was weird it told me the image was deleted. see if it works now...
Edit3: got it. you have to actually delete the space. I was right clicking and going to
it, which works with other links here...

That's because the person with 2 films also has 0.6 books, which "outweighs" the third film from the next person.
I think. :)

Oh I see. It's 1.9 - 1.6 vs 1 - 1.3 for the ones that are 1-1. It all makes sense now.

I think it has to do with books being weighted more heavily than movies. The other thing I've noticed is it looks like the fewer languages your stuff is spread across, if they are the same amount of books and films, the higher you are on the list? |

Yeah but imo 1 book outweighing 20 films is a bit too much :/

I think at this point, the challenge has started, and I'm going to concentrate on reading and watching my target languages, and never mind about where the bot puts me in a list. :D

You need to use the code for URL, otherwise the forum software thinks it's a realllllllllllly long word and inserts a space after a specific number of characters.

Good idea! Now that I've finished season 2 of The Magic School Bus in Spanish I think
I'll finish off my day with some doctor who in French. Tomorrow I may read a lot. I'm
getting to the really good part, and I want to finish by Saturday when I go home from
vacation.
Edit: I did use the code for the URL. It didn't work at all. That was what my first edit
was fixing. Or do you mean you have to manually type it in? I used the button and am too
tired right now to mess with code.
