Wow, this was by far the spree I am reporting with more delay.
Long gone were the days when I started updating the spree while it was still ongoing.
The reason for this is because of the 280 merits our mutual friend distributed. Not a single one landed on your truly meritband, so it went unnoticed.
My bad; I have to improve my post quality, apparently.
Official @ddmrddmr threadFirst, the usual the usual spreadsheet, where you see the two last sprees:
As you can see, I added a column that computes the total merits of the paired TICK-TOCK sprees.
This last one is by far the smallest on record. Either @ddmrddmr has become more efficient at distributing merits the traditional ways, or he's saving merits for later!
Merit Spree #49 by @ddmrddrmr
Official Description:
Version 49 - 16/02/2024 (88 posts merited (by me) in just over 1 minute) -> 178 sMerits
Remerited all my merited posts since my last spree (+ some backlogged pending ones), for non-banned users (up until today ).
My review:
TICK: This is an almost perfect reply of merit spree #43. Medium-sized double-meriting spree. Only two posts got triple-merited. Consistent velocity. Textbook TICK Spree.
Here's the TOP10:
1. d5000 28
2. Hispo 16
3. hilariousetc 12
4. Porfirii 10
5. Rikafip 8
5. famososMuertos 8
5. darbitmobilerecovery 8
8. seoincorporation 6
8. Jating 6
8. Don Pedro Dinero 6
Compared to Merit Spree #47, the numbers to enter the TOP10 are higher, which is quite usual. Only 6 merits to enter the chart, topped yet another time by @d5000, with 28 merits, getting just shy of his record of 30 in merits spree #47. Shall I start taking note of who's topping this chart more often?
That's all folks for Merits Spree 47!
Merit Spree #50 by @ddmrddrmr
Official description:
Version 50 - 16/02/2024 102 posts merited (by me) in just under 2 minutes) -> 102 sMerits
Merited all posts that:
- I have not merited before.
- Have received merits from at least five different people since january 2024.
- Are not in Services nor in WO nor in off-topic.
- Are not in thread IDs: 5253221, 5156376, 5445913
The goal is to merit post I have either ignored or not come across in boards I do not visit, and that others seem to deem merit worthy, allowing me to unload a bunch of sMerits in the process.
My review:
TOCK This second spree was by far the smallest of the bunch: roughly half of the size of merit spree 48. Small-sized single merits spree. As I said, maybe it is difficult. to find a post satisfying the criteria, of maybe @ddmrddmr is saving merit for later.
Here's the TOP10:
1. pooya87 3
1. cygan 3
3. 1miau 3
4. Volgastallion 2
5. Pulsar77 2
5. Pmalek 2
5. paid2 2
5. mrust_mobile 2
5. icopress 2
5. Husna QA 2
5. Humblevirus 2
5. Gencecikmen 2
5. gagux123 2
5. dkbit98 2
5. Distraction 2
5. CLS63 2
5. bitmover 2
Being a single merits spree, numbers are lower: 3 merits to top the chart and 2 to enter the TOP10.
I will start getting merit statistics for a single merits spree! So 11 merits are the highest on record for a single merits spree! (merit spree 44!), and these 3 merits are the lowest required on the record, together with spree #44, #46 and #48: wen two?
Time to call it a day!
I will work hard to be admitted back into the @ddmrddmr merit spree and be more proactive next time!
I must admit that the 50 merit spree is quite an extensive effort by our Spanish entity.
See you next merit spree!
