Article:AGM Milestones (January 1-14)

Happy New Year everyone!

A lot of people have told me that they missed these articles, one of my New Year's Resolutions is going to be to be able to present these until this time next year. Thank you everyone for your appreciation for my these articles, and for pushing me to do this again. I'm sure it'll keep me busy.

As always, please remember that if your names aren't on the list, and you'd like to be added, please feel free to message me. I'm only human, and I'm not going to be recognizing things like: This user is 200 points away from being a soccer kid. I will be recognizing the people in the top 50 of each category and go from there.

=All-Time Most Points=

Of course, we all know now that Manny Stiles just got 1,000,000 points recently, meaning that he is now a legend, so congratulations to him for that. Anyways, let's look at some of the achievements that could be accomplished:

Romiezzo is 43,490 points away from reaching 1,000,000 points and becoming a legend. (6 months here, and I could become a legend? That doesn't make sense.)

Tyrone Briggs is 28,540 points away from becoming a Hall of Famer

Alex Holowczak is 4335 points away from reaching 700,000 points milestone. He'll still be an MVP, but it's still a huge accomplishment.

JuTMSY4 is 18,105 points away from reaching 700,000 points as well.

Yakob878 is 640 points away from becoming an All-Star.

Falcon02520 is 34,300 points away from becoming an All-Star.

False Prophet is 675 points away from reaching the 400,000 point milestone.

BehBigBen15 is 31,955 points away from becoming a Major Leaguer.

MegECass110 is 9,730 points away from becoming a AAA-er.

Rawbeezeitz is 14,230 points away from becoming a AAA-er.

JMFlyer1354 is 1,870 points away from becoming a Draft Pick.

(FYI, I included the users who are currently active... at least who I think are.)

=Votes=


 * Christof is still in the lead with 32,699 votes. Compare that to 2nd place (Yakob878, with 28,058).

User:Roblefko is 84 votes away from becoming the 40th member of the 4,000 vote club.

Manny Stiles is 508 votes away from becoming the 15th member of the 14,000 vote club.

Falcon02520 is 666 votes away from becoming the 5th AGM member of the 25,000 vote club.

MegECass110 is 139 votes away from becoming the 16th AGMer to reach 13,000 votes.

Rawbeezeitz is 39 votes away from becoming AGM's 25th member of the 8,000 vote club.

Happyskinny is 86 votes away from becoming the 26th member of the 7,500 vote club.

BehBigBen15 is currently battling with InThaKnow for a distant 10th place. BBB has 18,596, while InThaKnow has 18,696 (100 more than BBB).

ChachiOSU and Oh No Romo are also battling out for 46th place. ChachiOSU has a 7 vote lead, 2,914-2,907, which means they're both pretty close to becoming the 46th and 47th members of the 3,000 vote club. Who will make it first?

=Edits=

Roblefko is 16 edits away from becoming the 1st user with 77,000 edits. (No one is even close to catching up with him in this category)

Romiezzo is 24 edits away from becoming the 4th user with 13,000 edits.

Alex Holowczak is 257 edits away from becoming the 5th user with 13,000 edits.

JuTMSY4 is 228 edits away from becoming the 29th user with 1,500 edits.

Yakob878 is 167 edits away from becoming the 15th user with 3,000 edits.

Davis21wylie is 177 edits away from becoming the 7th user with 7,500 edits.

Falcon02520 is 185 edits away from becoming the 36th/37th user with 1,000 edits.

JB82 is 128 edits away from becoming the 36/37th user with 1,000 edits.

Letsgojets is 5 edits away from becoming the 50th user with 500 edits.

=Comments=

Manny Stiles still has a commanding lead in this category. Since the last time I posted an AGM article, he has added 448 commentsmore than User:JuTMSY4 (2nd place). Manny is now only 374 comments away from  becoming the first AGMer to achieve the 15,000 comment milestone. No one has even reach the 5 digit figure yet, which is amazing... for Manny that is. Slowly but surely, Tyrone is catching up with JuTMSY4 now; he's only trailing JuTMSY4 by 441 now.

Alex Holowczak is currently battling against False Prophet for 5th place. Alex has 5,834, while False Prophet has 5,648. This means that they are both getting closer to that 6,000 comment milestone.

Yakob878 is 45 comments away from becoming the 22nd/23rd user to reach 2,000 comments. The reason why I say 22nd OR 23rd is because Bball3345 is only 1 comment shyof the 2,000 comment milestone.

Falcon02520 is 106 comments away from becoming the 15th user to reach 2,500 comments.

Erooster is 72 comments away from becoming the 42nd/43rd user to reach 1,000 comments.

Thecrookedcap is 55 comments away from becoming the 42nd/43rd user to reach 1,000 comments.

DRE-LO is also 74 comments away from reaching 1,000 comments, but I don't think he's here that often to become the 42nd or 43rd member of the 1,000 comment club.

User:BigPPup is 71 comments away from becoming the 9th user to reach 4,000 comments.

Kelsdad is 15 comments away from becoming the 8th user to reach 4,000 comments.

=Referrals=

Suprisingly, DNL hasn't recruited anyone since the last AGM Milestone article (still at 170). 44 users now have 2 or more recruits, so that's good news.

=Friends=

DNL still has a commanding lead in another category; he has a 247 friend lead over Romiezzo for first place (1,359-1,112). It's less of a lead than before, but it's still commanding. Since last time, Romiezzo has been able to get 8 more friends than DNL. Yakob878 has passed Christof for 3rd place, and currently has 657. Christof has 643. Other than that, nothing else is HUGE.

Roblefko is 9 friends away from beoming the 13th person to have 300 friends.

MegECass110 is 2 friends away from becoming the 15th user to reach 200 friends.

BigPPup is 3 friends away from becoming the 33rd/34th user to reach 100 friends.

Finally, Oneflydude is 7 friends away from becoming the 33rd/34th user to reach 100 friends. Can he catch up with BigPPup? Only time will tell.

=Foes=

Falcon02520 still stands alone as the only person to have 100 foes. In fact, Marry Me Jeter (2nd place) has only 64 foes. Amilke60 passed Christof, and he now has 58 foes.

Christof is still 1 foe from becoming the 4th user to reach 50 foes.

=Published Opinions=

Several people have a bunch of published opinions. SSreporters still has his spot for first place over Manny Stiles. Since the last AGM Milestones article, SSreporters has posted 40 more articles than Manny, and SS now has 276 articles that have been published. UNBELIEVABLE. You guys have to know that it is not about the quantity; it's about the quality, and that's exactly what SS and Manny show us when they write their articles. You do have to work hard in order to get your peers to publish your opinion, but some people may take a lot more time than others, which is exactly what Manny and SS show us.

13 AGM users have 100+ published articles. These people include Kelsdad (with his amazing beat reports), Alex Holowczak (who brings a lot of diversity to AGM with his motorsports and snooker articles, as well as his knowledge of many other subjects), DNL (who provides thorough detail with every article he writes), The Beast, Christof, and Niteowl049 (who write the three best article series here at AGM). This goes to show that we do have a lot of writing talent, and I am glad that we've been able to bring them over.


 * On a side note, JuTSMY4 is 2 articles shy of the 50 P.O. mark (one of those articles should be coming up soon, eh JuT?)

=Thumbs Up=

Manny Stiles still has a commanding 3,635 thumbs up lead over JuTMSY4 Tyrone Briggs. That's right; Tyone passed JuTMSY4, and now has the 2nd place title for thumbs up (10,100-8,841).

Robleko is 35 thumbs ups away from becoming the 38th user to reach 1,000 thumbs ups.

Romiezzo is 186 thumbs ups away from being the 4th user to reach 7,000 thumbs ups.

Falcon02520 is 171 thumbs ups away from becoming the 16th user to reach 3,000 thumbs ups.

False Prophet is 99 thumbs ups away from becoming the19th user to reach 2,500 thumbs ups.

BehBigBen15 is 99 thumbs ups away from becoming the 39th user to reach 1,000 thumbs ups.

Kelsdad is 156 thumbs ups away from becoming the 5th user to reach 5,000 thumbs ups.

MegECass110 is 58 thumbs ups away from becoming the 28th user to reach 1,500 thumbs ups.

SSreporters and DNL are both fighting for 7th place to see who get 4,000 thumbs ups first. Right now, DNL has more thumbs ups (4,937-3,872).

=Thumbs Down=

As always, unless something really obvious happens, I don't want to talk about "thumbs down"s. Some @$$%@!# will probably give him some thumbs downs just to be complete ###es

=Gifts Received=

Manny Stiles has taken Romiezzo's first place title for "Gifts Received". Manny currently has 3 more gifts than Romi (173-170). Tyrone Briggs passed the 100 gift mark since last time, so there are now 6 people who have received over 100 gifts.

=Gifts Sent=

Last time I posted an AGM article, Donatevo had a commanding 1,823-1,725 gifts sent lead over Romiezzo for first place. Now (finally), Romiezzo has took back his title. He has now sent 2,085, being the only AGM user who has sent 2,000+ gifts. There are currently 10 users who have sent over 100 gifts, and three people (Romi, Donatevo, and Yakob878) who have sent over 1,000.

Milestones accomplished this week:

 * Manny Stiles becomes the 3rd person to become a Legend (receive 1,000,000 points)

Milestones accomplished since last time:
''I wasn't able to keep track of the milestones accomplished since the last AGM article was sent, but you can feel free to make

The AGMer from November 19-December 31 is...

DRUMROLL

=Manny Stiles=

There were several people who I could've given this to, but I think Manny deserved it more than anyone else. With his creative articles and hard work, he was able to get over 86,000 points in November and over 66,000 points in December. Congratulations, Manny!

So there you have it. The fourthedition Armchair GM Milestones is over with. I hope you all enjoyed it. So, tell me what you think. I'll be checking who achieved their milestones. Again, if there's someone who isn't mentioned on the list, or if you aren't in a category, please feel free to message me. I'll keep you guys updated and change my article in a couple of days, just in case some miraculously does something HUGE on a category.

Good job you guys. Congratulations to all; it's been a great year. I had fun in '07. Now let's move on to 2008! Keep up the good work, guys! Make DNL proud. ;)
