The leader is "no", which seems odd. The second one is "trna", which is apparently "a type of RNA that helps in the translation of messenger RNA into proteins by carrying specific amino acids to the ribosome". Is that even a word? Like, do people pronounce it "turna" or something?

(Fun game though)

I think someone hacked my sql table :(
Ranking is manipulated, I just saw "incompetent" quite high up. Now it's gone.
The ranking is quite close at the mid-high ranks. There's 4 points of difference between rank 27 and 100 - high fluctuation without manipulation is entirely expected.
Nope, it's manipulated (or broken). Entries gaining hundreds of points, then losing them again in an instant. Just watch for a few minutes, it's a shit show.
Bit unkind mate. It's normal for ELO rankings to update by many points.
Yeah the ranking looks completely busted. Unless people actually like those words.
