Diamond Club members please check the group page for a unique announcement please. :)

Never realized there was actually a club. :o
May I have a peek please?

Oh, and by the way, spread the word: I just finished updating the Trusted Reviewers statistic pages for the new year.

:thmbup: :hfive: Congratulations to all our new Diamonds...
New013 and AdamE in January,
markmcc in June,
sidewinder22 in September, and
wellsbranch250 & Qikly in November!

Then, congratulations to all reviewers who earned an achievement level this year, those who moved up, and a special shout out to a couple of reviewers who leapfrogged a level (Horsman reached Bronze AND Silver this year), or three (blake833 earned Bronze, Silver AND Gold in 2018!!) :clap:

Here's to a year of new courses played, helpful reviews, and just lots of FUN in 2019!

Thanks Sisyphus, aka Jeff! Really appreciate your work.

Just off the top of anyone's head, can anyone think of who is just waiting on unique reviews? I know c_a_miller is but I am sure there must be more. (also his wedding is this weekend, so if you see him playing in a tux- don't ask!)

bobmcnelly is silver waiting for 75 uniques to hit gold.

group page as in the social groups part of the site? do i need an invite from JR?

Some more interesting data from the stats page for y'all:

The "average" trusted reviewer has been playing for 14 of (his) 39 years, bagging 154 courses in 13 states, has written 67 reviews with an average rating of 3.11, and garnered 7 thumbs per review.

The biggest beast in the review game has got to be our friend (and the subject of this thread, initially) Tracy Wolcott (the Valkyrie Kid), who, in the past 18 months, wrote 301 reviews :eek: and who has gotten 1655 thumbs UP in that time! He's the Energizer bunny of DGCR, folks! :p Tracy, I figure you've got company willing to play a round with you any time you get in their area. I know I'd be more than happy to connect with you again!

and I thought i had a lot in that time frame. just 208.
i did get em for 2018. 150 to 147

Congrats to Pmay5 on hitting Silver level trusted reviewer. A solid review coverage of North Carolina, informative reviews and a balanced course rating approach using the entire spectrum. Great work Sir and well deserved.

Thank you Sir, I appreciate it! I probably rate a little higher than others, but I love to have courses to play! :clap:

Just trying to help this great sport out anyway I can. Whether its updating the Course Conditions (after EVERY round), writing Reviews to help other DGers or working to build courses!
Good times around here, a couple of new courses going in, and several more working through the approval process. More courses to bag soon! Keep it up CADL Nation!! :hfive:

Don't you love when you notice you have a thumbs down on a review, re-read the review and notice it has a typo, then sit and wonder if the thumbs down came from your high school senior comp teacher?

wellsbranch250 is on this review thing. It reminds me that I need to read more reviews. I realized that I wasn't even reading and voting on reviews of the courses I was reviewing. I'm not sure how I expect to get votes on my reviews when I don't bother to read or vote on other people's reviews.
