Reference puzzles @Italiya look at the profile names in the standings and go calculate the number of games vs quantity of puzzles. Let us know about the results. If the ratio is constant, than the standings are worthless and was a mistake to post them.

I’ve always cared more about standings than raw ratings or trophy counts. To me, it’s about the level or category of achievement, not how many times someone keeps winning the same title.
In over-the-board chess, once you win in one class, you move up to the next. You progress from Class E to D, D to C, C to B, and so on. Once you’ve proven yourself at one level, you belong in a higher one.
I think it’s similar to school. You move from one grade to the next, then to college, or trade school or even eventually to university. The point is growth and progression, not staying in the same grade forever just because you can keep winning there.
That’s how I see chess trophies as well. What matters to me is reaching a new tier, not repeatedly collecting the same prize simply because nobody has taken it away yet. Magnus Carlsen doesn’t need to constantly hold the world championship title to prove he’s still one of the strongest players in the world.
Personally, I started in Class E, moved up to Class D, then to Class C (<1700), and eventually finished first in that section. That meant moving into the stronger Class B category. Nowadays I’m stuck in the lower third of B class, and honestly, I’m completely fine with that. It gives me stronger opponents to learn from, while also giving them a slightly easier tournament point. If I ever return to OTB tournaments, I’ll still be playing in the B sections, until I win a prize. Then it will be the challenging A section.
I have a lot of respect for tournament standings and for the work players put into reaching each level. It’s not only the top players who matter. That’s why I value the variety of trophies someone achieves more than the total quantity accumulated over time. Participation ribbons or presentation souvenirs don’t really count as trophies to me.

By the way, I’m also working on a trophy-flexible grid layout idea that might please the players that want to see all the complete show room style collection. If successful, it will display all trophies cleanly without overlapping usernames or other profile elements. Once it’s finished, I’ll post images of the concept rather than the code, until asked for it. It most likely will not be finished today.

For me lichess glitches for half-a-second before loading the page into your profile

This is what it looks like for that half-a-second

This should do the trick, for now. The css script needs to be reviewed. But it's working on my PC.
There must be a simpler way to get this done.

Someone got 50 trophies into the profile at the moment. Let's hope that a lot more players will get as much trophies soon!
Congratulations with 50 trophies
