Lol, I just went back to a course I reviewed in 2007 (right after this site started) so I checked to see if the review needed any revision. Holy cow some of my old reviews stink. :eek: It took a few years for the standard of what a review should be like to take shape; I still have some old ones that need to be updated. So some of my reviews are thorough and literate; thanks for noticing those.

I think it bothered me seven or eight years ago when people I knew started hitting diamond and I was nowhere close, but that was forgetting the point. I had stopped bagging courses when this site popped up; I bagged 0 courses from 2001-2006. After this site started, I bagged six courses that last half of 2007 and I've bagged at least one course every year since. It's about the journey, right? The diamond would be cool, but it was never the point. I'm still having a good time chasing it, so there's no hurry.

There is a guy with the username adlacro; he's a Florida guy and he's written 90 reviews. He still logs on and he has written a review in the last year. His DGCR # is 5; his first reviews were written a month before my first reviews. He's still a long way away from Diamond but he's still out there frolfing. I hope he makes it to Diamond one day, it would make my wait look like nothing.

Congratulations on reaching diamond status, Three Putt!

Congrats! Updated the Diamond list for ya.

....and everybody remember there's a fellow at the top of the Gold list being very patient, too!

Have to agree.


Welcome aboard 3P... always enjoy your reviews. :hfive:

Thanks, it's been fun. I was expecting that to take longer, so I'm pretty surprised by it.

When you get a chance you should update Pizza God's stats, he beat me to 1,000. That makes it two guys waiting patiently.

I just noticed that the number of uniques required to make diamond was raised to 250.

:popcorn:

That reminds me of when the number required for bronze went from 50 to 100. One day I was a trusted reviewer and then one day I wasn't. No grandfather clause then, not sure about now.:\

I did not notice anyone reverting backwards. perhaps its been 250 for some time, and the info page text was corrected.

I messaged Tim about it, and he said it has been 250 for a while. There were just some places on the site that weren't edited to show that yet.
