Алгоритм форума точно учитывает количество мерита, и если его много, то легенду получают позже. Fillippone тоже поздно получил легендарный ранг.

Не учитывает вообще. Есть такой пользователь как o_e_l_e_o, у него еше больше мерита чем у fillippone, а легенду он получил на 798 активити:

Edit: After some investigation, I turned Legendary with 798 activity and a little over 3,000 merit.

Когда вы получите легенду, решается в первый день регистрации:

That's what I did. It just takes the first byte of the SHA-1 hash of UID+salt and adds it to 775. There aren't many users with more than 775 activity, so checking people for upgrades every 10 minutes doesn't cause any problems. I was able to do it with just one SQL statement because MySQL has a built-in SHA-1 function.

The salt is a secret, so you cannot predict when someone will become legendary, but it is decided on the day they create their account.
