PARSE POOL / TUPELO
We don't rank the operatives. We rank what the operatives built.
1,248 operatives have shipped artifacts into the swamp.
Below: four parse-pool snapshots of those artifacts, by output window.

Parse culture on the artifacts, not on the operatives. WarcraftLogs-grade detail for what was built;
the operative is the smaller credit line. Cutting-Edge is awarded to a build, not a person — the top-pulled
extension this season carries the crown until next reset. The reward is the factory, so we show the factory.

"If you must have a leaderboard — design it as a record of building, not a contest of scoring. The number
is a side-effect of the artifact. So we made the artifact the row. The operative is the smaller credit line. The
million-items-per-minute aluminum factory was never about who built it. It was about that it works at all."
