capybara,

do you seriously believe that NooBs with small wish lists have huge advantages or are you trolling us? 

Your Top 10 earn the same exact points (6,687) as everyone else's Top 10. Would it seem more fair to you if you had 10, 20, or even 100 CDs accumulating as if they were in the #1 spot? That's ridiculous, right?

In that regard you are level with the small-Wishlister. But then on top of that, your are earning another 39,000-40,000 points on your other 990 CDs that the the guy with only 10 wishes isn't earning. So when he goes to list additional items, you have gained a massive number of points unavailable to the other guy. How you allocate those points are up to you. But if anything, you are the one who will outrank the next guy 99% of the time.

of course that is correct, how else would you want it? You cannot have 100 or even 20 in your Top-10!

But think of it this way: your Top-10 score exactly the same amount of points as the hypothetical micro-user and then, compared to that other user, you get bonus points accumulating on 990 other CDs. So when the micro-lister goes to list his next set of 10, your 990 all have a head start on all of his new adds; his Top 10 will never catch up in points to your Top 10.
