@Sompuperoo nope

Closer to a super user.

Braiam

@Andy actually it doesn't

Sompuperoo

@bjb568 the umbrella companies will not want anyone to see that

Is memor-x's answer ok? lifehacks.stackexchange.com/q/438/70

@Memor-X: If you want to suggest masturbation, be an adult and suggest masturbation. The answer as it stands is just childish. — abby hairboat ♦ 56 mins ago

just needs a good edit imo

hichris123

@bjb568 This perhaps looks like a site that... uh.. shouldn't make it to public beta...

Sompuperoo

@hichris123 I've already found it useful, received good answers to both my questions.

I think it's better than workplace for sure.

hichris123

01:17

The scope is all over the place, though... lifehacks.stackexchange.com/questions/156/…

Sompuperoo

true, hopefully they'll give people enough time to figure out how to narrow things down before they close it

hichris123

We're now streaming the #stackexchange SQL upgrade - prepping now and we'll begin in a bit: https://plus.google.com/events/cesravqha77ldfa2supvm2rarhc

Ooo @hichris123 is around now.

hichris123

@animuson ... am I needed?

animuson

I was destroying accounts earlier and you weren't around. :(

user259867

... to be destroyed?

hichris123

@animuson woah.

Doorknob 冰

@animuson That is a lot of red numbers

animuson

01:33

I consider @hichris123 my account destruction buddy. Whatever that is.

Doorknob 冰

A lot of very big red numbers o_o

hichris123

I wasn't around means "I was actually doing my homework." :P

Sompuperoo

@animuson nice!

hichris123

@animuson welp. That puts some... uh... thoughts that I might be scheduled for deletion in my head.

checks profile page

Frank

woot! symmetrical rep on lifehackers!

Nice!

Braiam

@Doorknob冰 Red Wednesday :)

animuson

"This account is scheduled for deletion..." Oh shit he's in chat! Cancel! CANCEL!!!!

hichris123

lol

animuson

Well, technically I was at work. My task for today involved reorganizing a drawer of reports. Yeah, had to stretch that 30 minute project over an 8 hour day...

I can't believe they actually mailed me a check for $6.72 for mileage reimbursement...

hichris123

@animuson They were expecting you to automate it. That's why you had 8 hours.

animuson

01:39

Gotta love waiting for other people to finish their work so you can have work to do.

hichris123

@animuson Well, can you claim that being in the flags queue is somehow a part of your job description, and thus should be paid for it?

animuson

I spent most of my day on SO. Hell, my coworker spends most of her day browsing Pinterest and Amazon. At least I'm doing something productive.

Doorknob 冰

I feel like there's an analogy to xkcd.com/303 that can be made here.

animuson

@Doorknob冰 Our boss would just walk by, stare for a moment, say "ok..." and act like nothing out of the ordinary was happening.

hichris123

@animuson I'm totally wondering what your job is, now.

animuson

01:44

(But frankly, nothing out of the ordinary is happening.)

user259867

Because of the Math elections, I made a Citizenship Score query, borrowing the term from Atwood. May be of interest to those on other sites. I tried to make it as non-opaque as possible, @Shog9.

animuson

We spent three hours playing frisbee with the lid off a candy container once.

Shog9

@Behaviour interesting...

hichris123

@Shog9 is leaning more today.

Shog9

getting toward the end of the year. I'm tired.

Sompuperoo

01:48

must have insider info on a tilted hat

Shog9

@Behaviour I like your method of relying on badges to do the heavy lifting there. Avoids a lot of the, uh, voodoo that tends to creep into these otherwise.

user259867

I originally wanted to also include Custodian and Reviewer, but counting only once, not separately by review type. Failing to code this property in SQL, I dropped these badges altogether. It would not change the results much: the folks at the top are all reviewers.

user206222

I'm not sure it would work quite as well on small sites for pro-tem moderators (or as a whole). For larger sites, I like it, though.

animuson

Nice pricing fail, Steam.

user259867

02:03

But perhaps, it's better without anything tied to reviews. So easy to game those.

Shog9

Maybe; it takes a lot of time though.

On the one hand, if you're editing / flagging, you're gonna get some other badges

On the other, there's an awful lot of... Well, grinding... To being a mod.

user259867

We don't know if the reviews are any good. Edits can be awful too, but generally users don't do it on purpose, or it becomes rather visible.

user259867

Flags need to be marked helpful to count.

Shog9

02:18

@Behaviour here: data.stackexchange.com/math/query/256828

1 point for badge type - so two points for maxing out any one review queue

user259867

@Shog9 Nice, but needs a descriptive title!

Shog9

I'm really bad about that

Q: When do new sites appear in reputation leagues?

When do new sites appear in reputation leagues? I am on Lifehacks.SE, which is currently in private beta. It is not present in SE reputation leagues. When do new sites appear in reputation leagues?
