What the hell?

The Bear (pbuh) says I have 230 inbound links, am ranked #851, and am a large mammal. That can't be right. That is insane.

I'll check my Ecosystem details in a week to see if it's cleared up.

Update: I even showed up on the Mammal list. How the hell is that possible?

There's definitely something strange going on with the bear. I'm ranked #337?

That just can't be right.

That's a good thing, right? You're moving up, H.

Last I looked, I somehow jumped to 100. We'll see it that lasts.

On another note, any idea what up with moehawk? Bloggersays his site doesn't exist.

Same thing happened to me, Tom. Two days ago, I had 63 inbound links,and was ranked at 2840 as an Adorable Little Rodent. As of yesterday morning, I was at 208 links, and standing at 967 as a Large Mammal.

I dunno if it's a glitch or not, but just to be safe I won't get too cocky yet.

I think it's because you've been posting more cat pictures. Cats are extremely beautiful and graceful creatures, and pictures of cats just make people want to come back again and again for more.

I think you need to recheck your stats. It looks like you are 827 and have 236 links. Yes, you are a hit.

Tom, I believe the answer lies in the method TTLB is using to recognize link scripts. It appears that all of the people that experienced jumps are members of one of the blogging alliances. Strangely enough, the ecosystem did not previously recognize the links in the TTLB alliance scripts. Perhaps that has changed.

In addition, many are moving from the TTLB script to the Blogrolling Alliance script now used by the Alliance of free blogs. And I know for sure that those links are recognized by the Ecosystem.

"He's like a cross between Matt Colt of Eurabian Times and Hunter S. Thompson at his most lucid... Tom is out there running down the enemies of our civilization in a Ford Fairlane--steering wheel in one hand and a bottle of Wild Turkey in the other. Go and visit, but don't make him mad."
- Someguy

"Tom is a chinese communist spy! He has lots of cats and noodles because that is his primary food supply and who but a communist would talk about economics so much? Anyhow I am working with deep cover anti-covert intellegence guys right now to bring him down.
