No, but I just realised that everything adds up if I assume that meetup posts also get 10 karma for every upvote. Given that this sort of makes sense but that I can't find it mentioned anywhere, I'm not sure whether it's a feature or a bug.
Mystery solved!
If it's worth saying, but not worth its own post (even in Discussion), then it goes here.
Notes for future OT posters:
1. Please add the 'open_thread' tag.
2. Check if there is an active Open Thread before posting a new one. (Immediately before; refresh the list-of-threads page before posting.)
3. Open Threads should be posted in Discussion, and not Main.
4. Open Threads should start on Monday, and end on Sunday.
