I was (one of?) the one who suggested that. An overall rank so that
you would know where you stood overall. Right know I know I am 3rd in
exploration, but 120th in gold, so I have sacrificed one for another.
Perhaps every faction is like that and I am in the top 40, maybe there
is someone out there who is say 10th in everything, and thus first
place overall.
I suggested coming up with a numerical value (weighted towards having
lower numbers. i.e. difference between 2nd and 3rd is more important than
119th, and 120th), and then getting a rank on how good you were doing
overall.
