I think what CZ were trying to avoid with the percentile thing, was needing to constantly add more peens, as players reach each goal in turn.

I think you’re right, and also the fact that “I’m better at foo than almost everyone!” is more peenworthy than “I’ve done a lot of foo.” It’s more in keeping with the original idea that peens were for topping the leaderboard, with the acknowledgement of things like “nobody’s ever going to get on top of the “most forums pwned” leaderboard unless everybody ahead of them gets hit by a bus.

Ideally, peens should not only be desirable and meaningful, but reasonably acquirable.
