    The leader boards have not been updated for YEARS is why. Yahoo stopped updating the leaderboard in 2014 and Verizon has never updated them. The person at the top of the leaderboard in Astronomy & Space died in early July, 2016.

    Don't hold your breath. It took Verizon more than 2 months to get rid of the Asian language spam questions. Some of those are still listed. There are NO Verizon employees monitoring YA.

    Those boards haven't been updated in a looong time. Another item on the Oath to-do list. A lot of users want to keep the boards and know who is currently contributing the most in each category.
