Small changes to Karma

FYI, we are changing how Karma is stored on the back-end to make calculations faster and more efficient.  As a result, we have to convert all the historical karma data which will take a few hours to process.

In the mean time you may notice that the Karma graphs in profiles is incorrect.  This will resolve itself by tonight or early tomorrow morning.

You may also notice small changes to your overall Karma as a result of how the new karma is stored.  Any change will be very small, if there is even one at all.

There's also going to be some different displays of Karma rankings which should be fun.

This change is going to take a few days. It'll be pretty simple, but just give you some better ways to look at where you stand.

Sorry everyone, the karma is still importing.  It's taking longer than I thought it would!  It's going to be another 12 hours or so before every member is updated.

ANy changes in Karma will affect everyone in the exact same way. REmember as well, this first change is basically just the way it is stored in the back end. So it won't be up to date until tomorrow.

Some people have such legendary status that they're very difficult to dethrone.

small suggestion (figured it wasn't thread worthy)

can we slide the legend in the karma graph over to the bottom left corner as opposed to the bottom right where it sits now? I would rather be able to see my most recent karma and its hidden behind the legend.
