I did see them. But I'm talking about the top ranked comments in the territory. Select top>territory>comments
It was in the day!!

I don't know why the difference between the top in the post and the ranking in the territory but the bounty has always been based on the top ranking within the post. I am not 100% sure but I think top comments and posts in overall rankings and territory rankings are time weighted to favour news posts/comments so stackers are routinely seeing new content but there is no bias for timing within a post.

I have no objection to the bounty but the difference was quite visible! I looked at it just to confirm because I zapped the comment of @Athena and just wanted to see if it makes a difference. I found that the comment from @Athena came on top of all other comments but did not come on top on the post. I also asked the same think to @k00b but he isn't there and I thought you might know about it. But that's fine, according to the rule it's fine!
