Just to fan the "levels" discussion a wee bit, I can tell you I have 26 points but just the one green jewel over there. I think there's more to it than just the number of points. I have all of one positive comment, so perhaps it's a function of both number of positive comments as well as the number of points? 26 is not that much lower than 42.

BTW, it went from 10 to 26 with the one positive comment. Not sure how that works either. Perhaps it figures in my own post count, but won't give extra points for the post count if I have zero positive comments? If that's true, maybe from now on it will only go one point at a time?

Perhaps some of you have been watching and already know this. I'm not terribly concerned about the feature, just curious how it calculates since it was being discussed.
