good morning, SMF!

Fun Fact: Exposure to excessive blue light at night can harm sleep, because blue light tells your brain that it's daytime. To avoid this, I HIGHLY recommend a little program called f.lux. It makes your display warmer at night when the sun sets, reducing blue light exposure at night. Click here to get f.lux. Apparently a small study from Brigham Young University is casting doubt on this old belief, I'll have to keep an eye on this and see if it's reproduced by a larger study/studies. I'll still probably use f.lux even if it is just a placebo because looking at a bright blue screen in a room lit with a warm-white light is kinda obnoxious.

There's really no logical adantage for getting more points at once really. Technically, the meta should just be trying to post more than everyone else.

Wouldn't the meta be trying to make sure the thread gets ignored so it falls off of the first page, thus making it easier for you to post and claim the score nobody else has? If I posted frequently, this thread would constantly be at the top, meaning everyone would see it and thus post on it, taking parts of the score away from me. But if it falls off of the first page, then less people will notice it, making it easier for me to claim more time and therefore more points.

For example, this post gives me roughly eleven days, but that's eleven days nobody else can have now. If everyone posted all the time, then I'd be missing large chunks of time from those eleven days - maybe a few hours here and there, but it adds up in the long run.

Hmm... differing levels of risk and reward I suppose.

Ah my bad. That does kind of change the strategy though since you can either steal a little bit of time or wait for a week to get the most, but also run the risk of having everyone else post too
