This board doesn't clearly distinguish from the posts pinned at the top and the others. That's why it looks like the GDT is not at the top even when it's the most recent post. But if you look at the symbols to the left of the thread name you will see those at the top have a light bulb with an exclamation point inside. Those are the pinned threads (or "sticky" threads). Currently, there are 4 of them: Ongoing updates, 2013 Predictions, Other Games, and Departed.

Then all the other threads are listed by the most recent post. The symbol to their left is a circle with lines in it or with a flame in it for those with many posts. Excluding the pinned threads, the thread with the most recent post will be the first shown with a circle symbol instead of a lightbulb. So when the GDT had the most recent post but was several topics from the top, it was because the pinned (lightbulb) threads are always shown ahead of it.

I agree, Surge. It was easy in the past to keep track of the latest comments as the threads were constantly rearranged with the ones most recently commented in moving to the top of the page. It would be great if that system were resurrected.
