Congratulations to @hobbit
I don't know how long it will last, but I'm ecstatic to see someone else's name at 100%, and above me on the leaderboard. In addition, it's @hobbit, which makes me happy twice.
Hooray!
I'm almost afraid to do anything, for fear it will wreck it (and yes, I took a screen shot before I did anything else).
It's just a perfect gift for me.

@wootvan: It wasn't me, and I have proof, and an alibi. Besides, it's the 100% that's significant (you only had 99%, as I recall).
In addition, if it is ever me, you will just be gone. poof
It would have been black helicopters, too. No mob affiliations for me.
apparently dying a red streak in your hair will get you 100%
Congrats!
Hope my vote for @shrdlu's question doesn't knock you out of the top spot.
@hobbit: Funny you should say that. I'd put a temporary rinse on my hair a few months ago, forgetting that gray hair is porous, and that there is no such thing as temporary if your hair is gray. I've been having it cut every three weeks, and almost all the colored bits are gone. Perhaps when I've returned to gray entirely, I will lose even more points.
@heymo: My posting less will have plenty of effect. I note that comments seem to count more than questions, and that comments on deals seem to count more than comments on questions. I think also that votes on deals count more than questions, and more than comments on questions, but less than comments on deals. Confused yet?
well this means that there are two targets for all those people who desperately want to be at the top of the list. And I don't even care about being there.
@hobbit: Congrats, Your Hobbitness! NOW, GO PUT ON THOSE SPARKLIES!
@shrdlu: dazed and confused.
I shall hold my complete congratulations till the leaderboard sorts out who is actually at 100%, but partial congrats to @hobbit for making it to 100%
@catbertthegreat: we have pictures if you would like to see them.
@hobbit: Congratulations!
Speech! Speech!!
@shrdlu: What a tongue twister! Can you say that ten times fast?
@debbiedunlap: Can I say what ten times fast? Your message is unclear. In addition, how will you know?
@catbertthegreat: I took a screen shot when it first happened. As the spring wears on, I expect you (and perhaps others) to move ahead of me. It wasn't that @hobbit was ahead, however, but that she'd achieved 100% that I found unusual.
@debbiedunlap: speech? Oh you mean something along the lines of I would like to thank deals.woot for giving some folks another target to yell at for having a higher reputation than them and pushing myself up every time I post a comment?
I didn't do it to get a higher rep it just happened. I would like to quote Jessika Rabbit here and say "I can't Help it, I was just drawn this way"
@hobbit: Way to go!
@hobbit: What, you mean that you earned a stellar reputation for answering questions & hunting for deals? I'm shocked that your reputation improved based on that sort of behavior when others have been working so hard to start flame wars and be generally unpleasant.
Congrats!
@hobbit: Maybe something more along the lines of "You like me, you really like me!"
@glindagw: Yea imagine that. I do try to behave. I do get a bit snarky though. My responses tend to match the member's longevity on the site and I need to stop that, I got a tongue lashing from one last week because I had a jokingly sharp answer and he apparently didn't like it, called me a know it all.
Congrats on the 100%....well...I guess it was fun while it lasted right? Either way, you had it for a bit, nice job.
@jcharlson34: I still have it, it comes and goes.
@shrdlu: "Can I say what ten times fast?"
"I note that comments seem to count more than questions, and that comments on deals seem to count more than comments on questions. I think also that votes on deals count more than questions, and more than comments on questions, but less than comments on deals. Confused yet?"
When I re-read the above comment on comments, I was thinking in Dr. Seuss sing-song mode and it was quite a lot of fun!
@debbiedunlap: Oohhhhhhhhhh....
Now I get it. Sure, I just said it ten times very fast. Did you hear me?
@debbiedunlap: She is fibbing...
