Nothing changed about this robot itself — what you can see is the field shifting around it, or its maker's news rising and ageing.

One reading per day since 3 Aug, when the current ordering began. The rank above is the reading for 14 Oct, taken against 127 robots — the standing itself is live, so a robot added since then counts there and not here yet.
