I hereby grant thee the power of crown.
Crowns give +1 to the current account of a user who gets the highest score for a crown-enabled game.
Crowns also give -5 to the current account and all shared accounts (same IP or sharing pants) of a user if they are caught cheating.
Crowns are refreshed every hour or, on some extreme cases, when the servers get reloaded (an act only possible by the Gods).
Negative crowns last for 10 days (as of today 24 April 2009).
The number may increase if needed.
How Crowns work.
Crowns are given to the last person scoring the highest on the leaderboard of crown-enabled games.
For example:
Player A scored a high score of 4000 and that makes Player A #1 on a game.
Before the hour is up, Player A is currently the person winning the crown.
However, Player B ties with Player A's score.
Player B is now currently the person winning the crown.
But before the hour is up, here comes Player C who scored higher than Player A and Player B with a score of 4200.
Player C is now #1 on the leaderboard and currently the person winning the crown.
Any user that comes along before the hour is up and ties with Player C or beat Player C's score will get the crown instead.
Obviously, this only applies to registered users.
In short, if you share your code / solution with someone, be prepared to loose your crown to them.
These are some crown-enabled games. More will be added soon.

Special crowns
Crowns can also be earned in other ways.
The winning side in S.O.W gains crowns:
ALIVE Humans get +2.
DEAD Humans get +1.
ALIVE occultists +3 crowns.
DEAD occultists +2 crowns.
Players who committed suicide due to inactivity do not get a crown.
Everyone who makes it past the boss and to the DunBonkin zone gets a +1 crown that lasts until the end of the day.
Tag crowns in chat
Winning the tag gives you a +2 crown that lasts until the next full hour.
If you are in the same room as the tag winner, you get a +1 crown.
