I also favor no caps on extra points and would suggest no caps on book points either. If someone wants to shine brightly briefly, why not let them? It all eventually averages out. I also like sneaklyfox's suggestion for an average points per day ranking for an interval much longer than a month.
I am also in favour of some additional longer interval for the "averages"; some time ago I asked Patrick for an "all time average" (though this can be easily calculated for every player, since the total number of days of the member are shown); if I remember well Patrick answered me that at the beginning of the site, less puzzles and points were published everyday and then the "average from the beginning" was not going to be representative, and too much in favour of the recently adhered members, OK, but an average for the last 100 days, or six months, or even the last year, could be interesting (also considering that some people have "definitely" abandoned the site and these rankings could show that).
