Lol I don't think so.
I think it was more because there were a lot of users who either weren't active at all on the site, or because they were active, but not as active as I was at the time.
Keep in mind most of the scores on the Top 100 leaderboard are still pretty low. Even a million points seems high to us, and it is a milestone, but it's not that much when you think about how many points a user can make in a week, and how many years some users have been on imgflip.
