Some go up, some go down, there's a no loss equation as when one person goes down it means someone else went up. There's no, bunch of people going down and no one going up.
With that, I went from Page 16 photo 67 (I do 90 per page to keep it consistent) to Page 6, photo #26 with the re-tank from September. That was a surprise.
If you don't know how the game works, it's pretty easy:
1) RM photo (not RF!)
2) Edit the keywords and add BHZ in the Essential Keywords box
3) Wait a few days for the database to update and
4) Find your photo
It doesn't tell you anything important, but it's an interesting game. You will see where you rank compared to other Alamy photographers, in a flat search. Problem is that some people game the game, but it's relatively a good indicator of your Alamy rank. Last I looked some 2100 people were playing and at 90 photos per page there were 25 pages. It's obvious that some people have more than one photo in the game, and I'm sure that some have more than one pseudonym with a BHZ photo. For entertainment purposes only. :D

Does BHZ work now with image stacking? I know they are removing stacking at the moment but I did see a thread in the alamy forum about a problem with using BHZ.

Interesting question, but since it's only supposed to stack images from individuals, and people are only supposed to have one image in the game, it should be fine. ;)
When I did the check yesterday it was working as far as I could tell. The person complaining about BHZ in the forum didn't really make any sense. I could tell they were unhappy, but that's about all the message said? It was vague.
