Community Update: The Top 100 about to turn "Purple or better"

In case you didn't notice the community is reaching a HUGE milestone.... in order to break into the top 100 you're going to need to be a purple belt (which is six to 16 weeks of effort in my experience).

There are currently only four green belts (with purple tips) in the top 100.... when the make it to purple (and they are all really close) the top 100 slots will all be purple.

1. Post something purple to celebrate this.
2. Guess when the entire list will be Brown Belts!!!

I think the entire top 100 will be brown belts by Halloween..a nice fall color!

Here's to continue the "growing" theme:

Wow, what a milestone. I'm very proud to be a member of the Purple Belt Club today!

I'm betting that the Top 100 will be all-brown by my birthday: November 26, 2009!

I think the Top 100 will be brown by Christmas of this year. Giving it a little more time than some of the rest of you because summer's a busy, outdoor kind of season. :)

That is a great accomplishment. It means we have a lot of dedicated community members. I am almost in the top 100 and just about to become a purple belt as well!

I think it will be all brown belts or better by Thanksgiving this year. I like my brown belt, but I kind of miss the purple. It's my favorite color!

Go Top 100, Go Purple Belts, and I hope you all don't mind a little greyhound purple...woof. Top 100 will all be Brown Belts by next Easter (there @bunnyphuphu!).

A lot depends on the number of questions, if the question volume continues to stay high the opportunity to answer many questions a day will make it comparatively easy to get to brown. My WAG is October 12th, Thanksgiving Day.

I remember...that when I started in March 2009 (I only participated a little in January) - there were YELLOW BELTS in the Top 100. Yes!

Nearly four months later - all the Top 100 are Purple belt or over.

I'd say that by September '09 it will all be brown. So, does this mean that by the end of the year....we will see only BLACK belts in the Top 100? I have to admit that it won't be that exciting with 100 Black Belt members in the Top 100 - it is much nicer seeing a mix of belt colours. I definitely think that there should be ribbons and badges for categories etc. (http://www.mahalo.com/answers/mahalo-answers-community/do-you-think-mahalo-should-give-us-rewardsmedalsribbons-on-our-profile-pages-for-different-achievements-number-of-fans-answers-etc).

Anyway! Let's celebrate to all you purple belts and above! If your not a purple belt - keep working...!

A free purple dog for every purple belt user!

YEAAAHHH!!! *Put's on Party Hat*
1.
http://www.spokesmanreview.com/blogs/vox/media/barney.jpg

2. I'm not sure I can have an estimate. The site could explode into popularity and people might just zoom right up to the top. OR, it could fizzle out and and number of questions will slow down. My guess is the first (hopefully). I'm going to say about 3 months. August 29th? Once people are dedicated to the site, enough to get a Purple Belt, chances are some sort of addiction has formed and it's not just a weekend phase. So they'll continue on in hopes to get higher on the ranking. Even I'm at that point now and I'm just a lowly Green Belt.

Thanks so much for a great time guys!
