Subject: Players being lost (deleted) from the stat pages???

Message:I have occasionally noticed that one of my rankings improves by one place without me having played any games in that variant, which could only happen if one of the players above me had gone missing (been deleted), imo.
To give another example (which I have just now noticed), here is a list of players 98 thru 100 in w13x0, sorted by number of games played. Yesterday, "6587" was in 100th place, and has now moved up to 99th place!! How come?
..98. niagarababe ....................................... 0 .... 69 .. 0 .. 6902 .. 87.77% .. 6:16 .. 18d
..99. PleepPloop ......................................... 2 .. 182 .. 0 .. 6587 .. 97.50% .. 3:04 .. 493d
100. The-Bible-is-the-Word-of-God .. 0 .. 455 .. 0 .. 6394 .. 98.55% .. 2:25 .. 356d
Has anyone else ever noticed this? And, does anyone know what is the criteria for a player to be deleted?
Thanks!

Message:No, I mean the all-time lists! Players drop out of the current listings all the time!
Sorry, I should have mentioned in my post above that I was talking about the "all-time lists"!

Message:all time lists only have the top 1000 people based on streak length. So someone who was top 1000 in streak length and top 100 of those in games played fell out of the top 1000.

Message:when sorted by wins static scores can only move down, when sorted by games played they can move up when someone drops off

Maybe someday we will be able to have stats for the top 2000 best streaks??
