CH probably considers Chipmixer part of the "power" structure here.
Participants in this campaign have earned
14908* Merit points, that's about 5% of the total for less than 60 users! It's almost as if spammers aren't accepted and Merit is rewarded for good posts.
* Inaccurate stat as not all new participants are included in that sheet
I think you missed the part where CH PROVED IN ALL CAPS that merits are meaningless, almost negative really. So in CH's universe all you 60 chippendales are actually worse that the 980 Legendaries who barely scraped one merit or none at all.
