I personally crunch for science and not for the rankings nor for

back?

So pat yourself on the back.  Ye gads, it's only a PDF file.  You did 
the crunching.  You KNOW you did the crunching.  Is it going to be any 
more valuable that you did the crunching because you've got some 
fancy-pants certificate to say "Oh wow.  Thankyou so very much"?

If you really DID do it just for the science and not for the kudos 
you wouldn't be whinging.  Get a life...
