Wow we are all such slackers. @Undisciplined and @ek have clearly not provided as much value to SN today as this stacker, who posted a link to a YouTube video.
We need to be quicker on the draw.

What's the draw? I'm getting anxious now?
reply
That's old west slang. We need to zap new posts more quickly, if we want to take this guy down.
reply
So, can zapping a post earlier may lead to top 5 on the leaderboard! That's weird!
reply
You get more rewards for zapping early. From an incentive standpoint, you need that to keep people from just waiting to see which posts are top posts before zapping them.
reply
Okay. But this stacker seem to have got it very early with perfection. He's regularly trending.
reply
Every so often, we see someone really gaming the rewards algorithm masterfully.
It's self correcting.
reply
So, you're saying that rewards algorithm can be gamed? Is the reward algorithm also visible to everyone?
If the sorcery continues we can all just downzap the so called wizard. Once his spent to stacked ratio goes negative he will likely move on. a few k sats in downzaps from some valued stackers should do the trick to knock him down a few pegs. He made an error not cloaking himself while conducting magic.
Well, include @k00b and @siggy47 as well.
