Rules
How the board works.
Eight rules, all of them enforced in code rather than by policy.
Rank is the total paid
Profiles are ordered by the total amount paid for them, highest first. Ties break to whichever profile reached that amount first, and any remaining tie breaks on the profile's identity, so the order is the same for everyone on every load.
Payments are cumulative
Paying again adds to the same profile's running total. You never restart, and you never lose the position you already paid for.
The board is unlimited
Anyone who pays at least $1 gets a position. There is no capacity, no shortlist and no eviction. A profile that is on the board stays on the board.
#1 carries no protection
There is no lock, no countdown, no exclusivity window and no price to beat. The top spot changes hands the instant another profile's total is higher.
Payments are final
Successful payments are permanent and permanently count. They are never deleted or rewritten, and a payment that has settled always counts toward its profile's total.
A listing is a profile, not a post
Identity is the platform plus the handle, and handles are treated case-insensitively — @Nike and @nike are one listing, because they are one account. A link to a post resolves to the account behind it.
Display text is never supplied by the payer
Everything shown about a listing is derived from the profile identity on our side. Nobody can pay against someone else's listing and change how it reads.
Listing is not endorsement
Anyone can pay to rank any public profile. Appearing here does not imply the owner is involved with, endorses, or is affiliated with the board. Owners can request removal; removal hides the listing and never erases payment history.
