Thanks bb on taking forward this initiative.
Question - Should not these TOP 20 users be notified telling - "Congratulations !!! You have received the highest Kudos for the month of July 2011? "
I know this will not matter to the regulars like :you, Bunuel, fluke, walker, etc. BUT it will matter to someone newly joining this league. Just my 2 cents !!!

The mind-boggling thing is that the spot #5 was at 31 Kudos in July and is at 31 in August.... who would have figured... and Karishma is #4 month over month.

P.S. I also got the same number - 71 in both months.... is this a conspiracy?

As per Wikipedia: Kudos (from Greek κῦδος) is an English word meaning acclaim or praise for exceptional achievement.

In GMAT Club speak - it is points that reflect your level of participation and input on GMAT Club.
Getting 25 Kudos and 100 posts or 50 Kudos allows access to the GMAT Club Tests.

He has lots of fans here.

Hi BB

A quick question:

goalset gave me 2 kudos yesterday, taking my kudos tally to 11 - my profile reflects 11 kudos.

But when I go to the list of kudos I received, goalset's 2 kudos are not in the list.

Any reason why?

Cheers

Santanu

Thanks PTK!

I can see the 2 new kudos now - probably the new links get updated once every day - and may be not immediately.

Detailed Kudos Stats


The first table is sorted by Received Kudos, the second one - by Given Kudos.
We have to understand that many users who receive Kudos didn't have the option to Give Kudos back then.

In older threads, I've seen a Guest account, which I assumed was from a time when someone could post without registering, with 17,000+ kudos given away. Are those kudos not reflected in the charts?

No, those Kudos are not reflected. Right now, only registered members can give and receive Kudos. These tables show the stats for real users only.

As far as I understand, that was a glitch after we moved from Kudos v1 to Kudos v2 about a year ago (Guests have a lot of kudos)
