I am pro stackers being able to hide. That being said, in these contests I don't think hidden stackers should be able to win top prizes (so maybe not eligible for top 3 or 5). Should be some trade off for anonymity.
It's kind of odd to have a contest and have no idea who the top 3 winners were. I am certain you were amongst the top 3 if not number 1 and for all you contribute to the community I think that is well deserved but in my opinion the purpose of these contests should be to drive new users and engagement to the site.
When I put myself in the shoes of a new stacker, or even a less frequent stacker who is intrigued by the contest. Having no daily rewards to keep them interested, a top heavy zaprank algo, and not having a clue who the top 3 participants are so you can see what they are doing to rank so well is a horrible new user experience.

This doesn't change your point, because it's about optics, but the second and third place finishers can be inferred from the current rewards page. Neither ended up being hiders.
Something is screwed up with the estimated rewards and rankings algorithm.

I don't know what you mean by this. I can't tell who came in 2nd or 3rd based on the current rankings. I don't see anyone with more sats than DavidW and we know he finished 4th.

It's not the current rankings. Our MSM rewards are included in "stacked".
Do we know davidw finished fourth? If so, 2nd and 4th can be inferred from that page.

Looks like they are all hiding to me. I don't know how you are searching for this.

It was me! But apparently I was getting paid for past performance. Classic mistake SN.

Ok but how do you know who 2 and 3 were?

Well now we know it was a glitch.
I was 2nd and davidw was 3rd.

No. I got second...in February. That glitch was quite the godsend.

Good argument. We'll just have to agree to disagree.

I understand your point of view @siggy47 and I respect it! I probably would have done the same if I were in your position. Who knows. But I like to open thought-provoking discussions. I hope I haven't upset you.

Of course not. I understand your point of view too. I'm still trying to wrap my head around all this stuff myself. Il
