2024 Reviewer of the Year

[wellsbranch250]

From one bagger to another, I appreciate all the reviews fellas! I may not ever throw some of these recently reviewed courses, but I want to throw them all. Plus, it's been over 2 months since my last bagging hit. I may be going thru withdrawal.

Shoot, I think every time I am taking that LONG drive home, I am done. But after a couple of days, I am like, where to next.....

I do go though withdraws. I am actually glad I am working though this next weekend. Sure I am in the middle of a 12 days in a row working, but I need the break. My next day off I am suppose to help the wife with an arts and craft fair.

With the EV industry crashing and one of our parent companies filing bankruptcy, I find myself applying for jobs where I can bag new courses! I need to find a new daily driver though. My truck is getting up there in miles and I need to keep it around as a workhorse. Replaced the thermostat on my last trip.

While we could talk all day about wolfhaley's run, let's not allow the artist formerly known as Bizz and his run be downplayed. If Thomas is right and only has maybe one review left for the year, let's see where he stands among the list of reviewers with the most reviews posted over two consecutive years:

1. mashnut 2010-11: 388

12. harr0410 2011-12: 243
13. Thomashasfun 2023-24: 238

Pretty good company if you ask me, and a run that would stand out even more over many other two-year periods on the site.

Shoutout to EspressoPatronum with 25 reviews, the 7th biggest month from anyone thus far in 2024. Monocacy's 9 reviews also takes him from the fringe of the list to well within the middle of the pack.

As of the end of September, we're in the top 10! I'm pretty sure we are also now ahead of 2008 by now, and not far from the next few years. Some particularly strong performances from individuals this month have us on pace for 1,542 reviews, and while we will likely see some slowing down as the months start getting colder, I think we're going to be pretty high on this list by New Years.

Top Podiums Of All-Time

EspressoPatronum and DFrah enter the top 100 all-time with their 2nd and 3rd appearances respectively, though DFrah dropped one of his own former appearances with his entry this year. Moose33 and wellsbranch240 are next up sitting at 54 and 53 reviews, with a few other folks in the 40s that could still make a run.

Wolfhaley now sits 15 reviews from the all-time mark when including his review from yesterday. Our podium is also now comprised of the 3rd, 14th, and 19th highest review counts of all-time out of just 18 years worth of site history.

 

[Thomashasfun]

Depends a lot on these next 2-3 weeks but there is a chance I get more than one. I'm craving wanderlust and hate the long, icy, freezing cold Idaho winters, so if I get a wild hare up the keister I may just load the Subaru up and just move or even be a snowbird this year. If that happens there will be many reviews in December.
