good point. i only have 70pts so i feel for this.

maybe the total accumulated points of all time are also kept. YC doesn't erase any data. its just writing a new database query.

old query: Points = "select count(votes) where user.id = 123"

new method: "select votes, date where user.id = 123" and do some heuristic magic in the model or results datastructure.

or they could just keep it and add this months top users etc and we are all happy :P
