    Timing is everything. I once had “most upvoted post of the day” and like 20K karma from a stupid joke that was a reply to the first top-level comment on a default sub. The only reason that happened was because it got into “rising” exactly as the US users started waking up and opening the site.

    I could’ve posted the exact same comment on any other post in that thread or even the same one but at a different time, and no one would’ve seen it.
