in order of what their usernames html color code is

or possibly the main color of their avatar, who knows


actually if you converted names to numbers (which would be base36, alphanumeric), it would basically amount to alphabetical order which is too obvious

the ranking is a bitmask where 2, 4, and 8 are positive qualities and 2|4|8(14) represents all of them


the way it works is you have up to, say, 16 flags (for 31 users), and rank corresponds to a bitmask of those flags

for example, you have a 16 bit value

0000000000000001 (1) = flag 1
0000000000000010 (2) = flag 2
0000000000000101 (5) = flags 1|4
0000000000000111 (7) = flags 1|2|4
