Looks like my notes with 'helpful votes' have crossed the 5,000 mark. Nice, thanks, y'all, glad I can help

Also, I'm just 8 'fans' away from the big 500. Again, thanks to those for their support.

I just noticed that our "wines consumed" figure in CT is 999. So if we open anything tonight to go with our venison cutlets, we'll be at 1000. Perhaps a 2008 Tabarrini Montefalco Sagrantino Colle Grimaldesco? Sounds about right for meat from the back of a big ol' buck.

By the way, Tim, I just fanned you, to help you get closer to your goal....

Tim, I know you love a challenge, so I'm going to go un-fan you.

Congrats, my friend. Doing Bacchus' work, spreading the word!

For now, the only thing "Mega" about me is my waistline.

Tim, I'm part of your fan club now too.

Tim is in the Top Ten for most fans, and the Top Fifty for most notes (and just passed Eric in # notes posted).

Hard to crack the top 100 in TNs, as that's currently 3,350 notes.

Fellow Club MEGA members wineismylife and Paul S are both in Top Ten most fans and Top Twenty most notes.
Jeff Leve is even higher in both, but has a ways to go to the 1000 posts club.
Paul S hits 3000 Forum posts with his next one. Say hello, Paul!
Lots of great contributors.

New fan for Tim... not sure why I've been absent.

Congrats to Mike and Chelsea for breaking into the Top Ten tasting notes group.

Glad to see the new members. I just made my 10th annual payment to CT. Maybe we should add that as a factor. A decade of CT.

I've been lingering whilst letting my mandible and mouth recuperate. Cheers to all of you.

Moreso than UltraTracker sounds like one of the enemies in MegaMan, at least.

Love this option! Did you put up posters on telephone polls with their pictures and your phone number?

Yes....CT should include an explanatory note with that option.

Edit: the forum header page also needs that option, right under "Users browsing this forum".

Well done Freelon. I guess I should presume you're drunk?

Congrats. About to read your post. Attended a WA tasting last year. Gave me a whole new respect for the wines. Especially Red Mountain, duh, reds.

Cheers to WA!

Cheers to a new member of Club Mega!
