There is absolutely no reason to think that. The participants
make the game, sure, but it is one man's
concept, one man's effort, and one man's credit.

If "concept" means "original idea" and "effort" means "updating the
scores and the website", I can agree. You see, no modesty here. But
IMO rules are part of the "concept", and many of the actual rules (not
to speak of Daniele's ongoing shot to a whole reform) have been
conceived and proposed by people that are not me. And isn't discussing
the ideas about new rules in hundreds of posts, or doing statistical
studies for the game's sake (like Daniele and Matthias did) "effort"?
So I have my share of credit, but it's not the most part of it.
