Probably lol.

All I've been told is to think of a rubber band with a knot in the middle. Stretch it out. The two ends move the farthest, while the middle hardly moves. Think of the high rankings on one end and the low rankings on the other. In other words, if you get top, you'll get pulled up; if you're towards the middle, you are not moved as much. So it can hurt you as much as it can help you because you can get pulled down if you're ranked low.
