Rapid leaderboard long tail

Sort:
Xanitrep

The rating distribution graph on the global rapid leaderboard used to have a long tail extending up to 3000 rating. As of tonight's update, it now extends to 4500, with a handful of players occupying the buckets ranging from 3000-4500 (3000:1, 3100:1, 3200:1, 3300:3, 3500:1, 3600:1, 3700:1. 4500:1). However, I don't see people with any such ratings at the top of the leaderboard itself. The highest rating displayed there at the moment is 2921.

Are these 3000-4500 ratings legit? If so, it might be worth grouping all of the outliers into a single 3000+ bucket to make the graph more usable/visually appealing.

Update: I've identified a cluster of suspicious accounts responsible for this situation and reported them all for rating manipulation.
