Mark said the same thing yesterday on #marp. Does no one read the news page these days? Zwaxy even posted it himself.

oh crap i'm over 1000 posts oh well no reason to try and edit posts to keep it down now... anyways a notE on zwaxy's note, there's a typo. 't' should be 'w' i think.

The scores used to be stored in a signed 32 bit column, giving a maximum allowed score of around 2 billion. The maximum should noT be a lot higher.
