Alright. Forget altruism. If they were aiming for the peen, and hadn’t gotten it, for reasons of pure self-interest, they would still be ahead of those who “hit those numbers later.” Having achieved their goal, they stopped, while those who didn’t get the peen continued because they had to. Either way, those who achieved the peen and didn’t keep mindlessly grinding are being penalized for someone else’s poor decision.

As such things go, I’d say losing your peen is a bigger affront to a given player than someone else getting to keep their peen, so I would err on the side of letting people keep the peen they thought they’d already won.

I don’t really agree with that. We can’t know that people who achieved those peens would have kept going for the overall leaderboard. They were specifically shooting for clbum leaderboard spots because they were much more easily attainable. So now they have peens, which they might have never gotten anyway, while the rest of us have to keep grinding and surpbum them by far in order to get the same reward.
