Amid everyone's playful banter, time slowly ticked by.
Soon, night fell.
As the clock passed 11:00 PM, midnight drew ever closer.
The leaderboard was in turmoil as the lords' scores began to change rapidly.
Lords would suddenly gain a huge amount of prosperity, instantly surpassing several or even dozens of others.
Then, just as quickly, they would be overtaken by other lords, dropping several ranks.
The competition was especially fierce around the 10,000th, 5,000th, 1,000th, 500th, 300th, and 100th place milestones, as crossing these thresholds meant leveling up to the next tier of rewards.
In the chat channel, people constantly howled in frustration over dropping a tier while others cheered for breaking into a higher rank.
